Louis' Cab | night four
The stepping stones
will lead us farther.
As your brittle bones,
take us further.
Each day we spent,
is a ride to the latter;
To answer why we're sent,
to be together.

Harry: Why are you here again? (not wanting to board the car)
Louis: Is it bad to stay? (pulls the lad in)
Harry: (groans in annoyance) Can you please tell me the truth, why are you always here? Don't you have anyone else to waste your time on?
Louis: (instructs the lad to close his door) I don't have anyone.
Harry: (closes door/puts seatbelt on) I won't ride this car again, I promise.
Louis: (sighs) I don't have anyone else.
Harry: Louis, you can't take me to your favorite diner forever, spend your time somewhere else and with someone (pauses to sigh) relevant.
Louis: (stern) I don't have anyone else.
Harry: I'm not the relevant person you need. This is a ride that would eventually end, so end it soon. (glances outside the windom) Do yourself a favor and leave me alone.
Louis: [silence]
Harry: [silence]
Louis: Stranger.
Harry: (hesitates to answer) Why are you helping me?
Louis: (slams hand on steering wheel) Because I don't have anyone else in my life but myself.
Harry: (shocked) [silence]
Louis: (glances at the lad) I'll only stop if you also give up on standing in the middle of that stupid road.
Harry: But... (pauses) I'm a stranger.
Louis: (sighs) And you're the only one I have.
