He was my second god... after Miss Pippa went away, I waited for a long time and wouldn't let anyone name me... ( But Terra had been patient and worked with him. His approach was gentler than Oona's "you have to keep moving" approach which seems more direct but the meaning is the same, ) But that wasn't very good... waiting all of the time.
( He looks down at the ground, thinking for a second before he answers her question. He could do the same thing now. Refuse to let himself be named and wait again. Let himself be vulnerable and depend on the kindness of others again. )
I think so.
( He nods. Maybe this is the heaven's way of pushing him along. )
