Full description: llustrated comic panel in shades of purple and blue. The narrative unfolds through multiple scenes. First, a close-up of a man’s face, with the text “You dropped me an hour away from the airport, not knowing when you would see me next. Standing there crying, so I would extend myself.” He is hugging a blond child, whispering “T’es ma chair, pi mon sang, oublis le pas,” which translates to “You’re my flesh and blood, never forget that.” Next, a young child with a backpack walking towards a door, with a suitcase nearby, overlayed with the text “You never met me where I needed you to be.” Next, a person riding in a car. The text reads, “It’s like the two-minute drive you would give me from the bus stop to the house. Making me praise you for your time.” An image of a hand holding an airport ticket. Text reads: “You are that two-minute drive on the hour and half I needed you.” Next, a young boy walking alone in a spacious area with the text, “It’s okay, I can walk from now on; But there is nowhere to walk back to.” In the bottom right corner, there’s a signature: “LP”.
