She walked away, and I shouted back, "I'm not asking for forever!" She stops. She turns in the aisle and sadly smiles. "That's why I'm leaving." My own smile drops. And that's the end of that endeavour. Because time never really stops. Forever is all some people want, and they won't settle for just a while. Even if a while is all that I've got.

A While
She walked away, and I shouted back, "I'm not asking for forever!" She stops. She turns in the aisle and sadly smiles. "That's why I'm leaving." My own smile drops. And that's the end of that endeavour. Because time never really stops. Forever is all some people want, and they won't settle for just a while. Even if a while is all that I've got.
