The one that usually got me what I wanted. вЂњTheyвЂ™re coming back for the rest of us, right? WeвЂ™ll just wait for them to come back.вЂќ I pulled on his shirt and put on my best pleading face. вЂњIвЂ™ll protect him, IвЂ™ll watch him, I wonвЂ™t let anything happen to him,вЂќ I pleaded. вЂњNo!вЂќ Sammy screamed, tears streaming down bright red cheeks. But some places are safer than others.вЂќ He grabbed SammyвЂ™s hand. вЂњThey canвЂ™t guarantee our safety-no one can. He was a responsible adult, and thatвЂ™s what responsible adults do. So of course he did the most reasonable thing. He was weighing odds and calculating probabilities and ignoring the little voice piping up from the deepest part of him: DonвЂ™t let him go. He was thinking about the drones, about what he knew and what he didnвЂ™t know.

He lifted his head and scratched under his chin, and his eyes regarded the empty sky. He can stay with us.вЂќДad chewed on his bottom lip. вЂњYou think? Whose safety can you guarantee?вЂќ

вЂњOh, really?вЂќ I shouted into his bug-face. He got it: It was Daddy and the soldier against me and him, and there was no winning that battle. вЂњI want him to stay with me,вЂќ I corrected him. The sun glinted off the visor, a hateful ball of light. I had the urge to rip the mask off his head and spit in his face. There was this awful moment when the corporal didnвЂ™t say anything. HeвЂ™d have to pull my damn arms off to take my little brother. вЂњThen heвЂ™s not getting on,вЂќ I said, wrapping both arms around SammyвЂ™s chest. вЂњSheвЂ™ll have to stay here,вЂќ the corporal said. I wasnвЂ™t happy about leaving Dad behind, but Sammy wasnвЂ™t going anywhere without me.
