Sean unable to bring himself to shatter his illusions, inwardly conceded that his friend was, in

Frederick remained silent, tacitly agreeing.

Sean tossed his cigarette onto the deck and snuffed it out with the tip of his shoe before turning to lean against the railing. Looking at Frederick’s restrained face, he sighed meaningfully. “If only you had half the impulsiveness you had for Winona Summers twenty years ago, you wouldn’t be in su

Frederick smiled, lowering his head and shrugging noncommittally. “Can’t help it, I’ve aged.”

“Enough,” Sean dropped his hand and waved at Frederick, “I’m going back to Claire. You stay here and enjoy the cold breeze alone.”

With that, Sean left the deck without hesitation. Frederick stood alone, gazing up at the starry sky.
