Hey. You must be at the airport by now.

I took a week off of work.

And then I thought, "What am I going to do there all day?"

I don't know. See the sights?

I mean, I could spend three hours with you in the Louvre in the afternoon and no one would miss me.

That's not what this is about.

I think you should come home.

I've got to go.

This was a big mistake. I should never have come here.

Do you realize this city is laid out in circles?

I'm worried I might drown.

Maybe I'm just not cut out for this city.

Maybe an even better one than you imagined.
