Ant woke up early morning and woke me up. He heard them faraway screams. Like they be gobbled up by the darkness. I said you too young to worry bout these things. Me, I'm his big brother, I suppose to worry for 'em. I do the worrying, I told 'em straight in the eyes. You just go back to sleep, boy.

True enough, I was worried like a cowboy who just lost his horse. Betcha I was worried even more.

I told Ant I love 'em. And I do. My lil' brother is the only person I have left.
