A Stolen Life Page #3

CAN'T TELL.

AN HOUR, TWO HOURS,

MAYBE TWO DAYS.

TWO DAYS?

OH.

WHAT DOES MR. EMERSON

DO OUT HERE?

CHECKS ALL:

THE EQUIPMENT.

SORRY YOU GO STUCK OUT HERE.

OH, THAT'S QUITE

ALL RIGHT.

WOULD IT DISTURB YOU IF

I LOOKED AROUND A LITTLE?

I DON'T KNOW WHA WOULD INTEREST YOU, BUT-

IF YOU WANT TO,

WHY, GO AHEAD.

THANK YOU.

FINDING SOMETHING

TO KEEP YOU OCCUPIED?

OH, I'VE BEEN

EXPLORING.

MAKE YOURSELF AT HOME.

I'M GLAD I DIDN'T TRY

TO GO BACK IN THIS.

DOES THE FOG:

FRIGHTEN YOU?

A LITTLE.

THERE'S SOMETHING SO

TERRIBLY LONELY ABOUT IT.

I DON'T MIND

BEING ALONE,

BUT I DON'T LIKE

TO FEEL LONELY.

THERE'S A DIFFERENCE,

ISN'T THERE?

YOU KNOW...

I DON'T MIND

BEING ALONE, EITHER.

IN FACT, I DELIBERATELY

TOOK THIS JOB HERE

TO GET AWAY FROM

TOO MANY PEOPLE.

I CAN UNDERSTAND THAT.

YOU WOULDN'T BE AFRAID OF THA FOG IF YOU WENT RIGHT OUT INTO IT.

I'LL SHOW YOU.

IT'S LIKE THE END

OF THE WORLD.

IT COULD END:

LIKE THIS.

I DON'T THINK I'D BE

FRIGHTENED EVEN IF IT WERE.

OR LONELY, EITHER?

I KNEW YOU'D GE OVER IT OUT HERE.

I WONDER WHA PEOPLE WOULD DO

IF THE WORLD:

SHOULD END LIKE THIS.

THEN THEY'D HAVE TIME

TO SAY ALL THE THINGS

THEY'D ALWAYS

WANTED TO SAY.

THEN THEY'D HAVE

THE COURAGE TO SAY THEM.

FOR INSTANCE?

HONEST THINGS.

SUCH AS?

SUCH AS TELLING YOU I DIDN' PARTICULARLY WANT TO PAINT EBEN.

THEN WHY DID YOU GO

TO ALL THAT TROUBLE?

BECAUSE I WANTED

TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

LONELY PEOPLE:

WANT FRIENDS,

BUT THEY HAVE TO SEARCH

VERY HARD FOR THEM.

IT'S DIFFICUL FOR THEM TO-TO FIND...

OTHER LONELY PEOPLE.

THE FOG'S LIFTING.

IT WASN'T THE END

OF THE WORLD AFTER ALL.

GOOD NIGHT, BILL.

THANKS FOR:

BRINGING ME OVER.

OH, I'LL WALK

YOU HOME.

OH, NO, I WOULDN' THINK OF IT.

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

ARE YOU ASHAMED OF ME?

OH, NO, IT ISN'T THAT.

IT'S JUST THAT I-

WELL, I HAVE A LOT OF

THINGS TO DO ON THE WAY HOME.

THANKS JUST THE SAME.

YOU WOULDN'T BE HOLDING

OUT ON ME, WOULD YOU?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

YOU HAVEN'T GOT A HUSBAND

OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, EH?

OH, OF COURSE NOT.

WHAT AN IDEA.

WELL, I'LL SEE YOU

TOMORROW.

I'LL BRING THE BOA BACK IN THE MORNING.

THANKS.

GOOD NIGHT.

GOOD NIGHT.

WHAT A PERFECT NIGHT.

SO BEAUTIFUL.

I WISH I'D COME HERE

YEARS AGO.

YOU WERE MADE FOR

ALL THIS, BILL.

I- I WENT TO

A CLASS REUNION:

AT BOSTON TECH:

LAST YEAR.

MOST OF THE FELLAS

I GRADUATED WITH,

THEY-THEY HAVE

WONDERFUL JOBS NOW,

MAKING MONEY:

HAND OVER FIST.

SOME OF THEM:

WERE RIBBING ME:

ABOUT BEING STUCK

WAY OFF DOWN HERE.

ONE OF THEM EVEN

OFFERED ME A JOB

AT 3 TIMES THE DOUGH

I'M MAKING NOW.

I GUESS HE FEL KIND OF SORRY FOR ME.

IF HE ONLY KNEW:

HOW I FELT FOR HIM.

YOU'VE FOUND YOUR RIGH PLACE IN THE WORLD.
