Caleb makes a little face at that. It always stings, just a little, when he's reminded that, no, Adam isn't here, and no, he probably isn't going to be. He knows Michael doesn't mean it that way, though, so he shrugs.

"I mean, I know. And, and my friend Rosie said that maybe, y'know, I'm actually still back there, too? Like, some people have told me that time stops there, or that I'll get back the moment I left from, so it's like I was never gone, but she was saying that maybe it's like... one of me came here, and the original me stayed there? So... I'm still with him. He's still with me. And. And that's good, right? It's not... y'know... cheating, or whatever, if I'm actually still there?"

He has no idea if that makes sense. He hopes it does. He hopes Michael gets it, that he agrees, confirms Caleb's thoughts.
