MOTHER:
Leon.

Believe.

No.

- Believe.

- No!

Believe.

No.

I don't believe it.

(PHONE RINGING)

Tribal trade. Bill Phillips here.

Bill, it's Leon.

Leon? What time is it?

I wanna sell everything.

I want it all gone.

I'll send you a full inventory

in a couple of days.

Um... yeah. Sure.

Okay? Thanks. Sorry

for waking you up.

Don't go.

There's so much I

want to say to you.

So much I need to explain.

I waited so long for

you to come back.

I waited so long.

Until I realized you never would.

That night, I saw something

through the window,

and I told myself

it was just a cat.

I tried to occupy myself,

but I was afraid.

I could feel it watching me.

I wanted to talk to you to tell you

that I'd made a mistake,

that you were more important to me

than anything else in the world.

But my thoughts were confused,

and I kept thinking

it was too big to be a cat.

That's when I realized what

I'd been trying to ignore

for so long.

That you had turned

your back on me.

That you abandoned me.

That you no longer cared.

That my little angel would

no longer protect me.

(GASPING)

And when faith is gone...

Loneliness can be a monster.

I thought you would

come to me then.

But you never did.

The funeral was empty without you.

The loneliness is worse

now than it ever was.

And all I can do is remember

the way you were,

and make believe.

Make believe that you

came looking for me.

Make believe that you felt.

Make believe that you hoped.

Make believe that you remembered.

Remembered that the soul lives on

long after death,

eternally, and without end.

Make believe that you cared.

Make believe that you miss me...

As much as I miss you.
