She said she can't quit smoking, not now

Leaving from Boston’s Logan International Airport I stopped for a hot chocolate before heading to the departure lounge.

I sat on the bench beside her a few seats down. She was on the verge of tears speaking into her pink cell phone.

“I can’t quit smoking, not now, not with all the things going on in my life. You’ll be there for me, right?”
