home

where? they are going "home".

when? soon, possibly before school lets out for the summer.

why? because apparently you don't need a job and welfare is sufficient for income.

how? because, "love" is enough. food, clothes, shelter, structure, schooling, reached potential are just luxuries.

now? we wait. we break. we weep. we hide the pain from them. we transition. we move on.

or at least we try.
