I ever wanted to marry,

have a family with,

you know, it was just you.

I don't want to have kids.

And I know you always said,

"No, baby, you'll change.

You're just scared."

I'm not scared, Wes.

And I'm not gonna change.

I don't want kids.

You think that makes me

a bad person, right?

No. No.

What if we're making a mistake, right?

What if...

What if we're wrong?

What if I'm the best thing

that ever happened to you?

What if you're my Prince Charming?

Or we're walking out too soon?

Funny.

You keep it.

I love you, honey.

Where have you two been?

- Mom.

- Never mind.

- Mom.

- Follow me.

- I need to tell you something.

- Yes, afterwards. Come with me.

- Mom. Mom.

- What?

I need to...

Come on. The people are starving.

Hi.

They're here.

Everybody!

The couple!

I want to thank everybody for coming.

But there's not gonna be a wedding.

We're not getting married.

What?

We're not getting married, Mom.

Wesley, can I talk to you?

No.

Wesley.

I've lived for you

and for Dad, lived his dream,

but what about mine, Mom?

I'm sorry.

I'm...

I'm leaving.

Where are you going?

Travel the world.

Catch up with Rich, Josh.

Okay.

This motorcycle business again, right?

No. It's about me living

for the first time in my life.

John is gonna run the company.

I've talked to him,

he knows everything about it.

- So...

- John?

First Dad screws me over,

now my brother screws me over?

Nobody's screwing you over, man.

Everything that's happening to you,

you're doing it to yourself.

You sabotage every good thing

that comes in your life

and I can't help you with that any more.

That's who you want to be, you be it,

but you won't be it with me.

I'm done.

Hi.

Hey.

You look great.

Yeah, no tie.

I just tried to relax myself a little bit.

I'm so sorry about the other night.

It's okay.

No, it's not.

I'm... I'm...

I'm not gonna get married.

And

I'm leaving tomorrow.

Where are you going?

Africa.

I'm shipping my bike there.

I'm gonna catch up with my buddies and...

No!

Yeah. We're gonna dig those wells.

That is amazing.

Good for you.

'Cause you only live once, right?

Yeah.

You're right.

You did... You did that for me.

No, I didn't.

You did it.

There's an executive

here, his name is John,

and he knows everything

about you and the apartment.

You'll be fine.

You can stay there as long as you need to.

Okay. Thank you.

I was kind of hoping that

you wouldn't need to.

Well, I...

I'm doing both shifts and I figure that

I could be gone in a month...

No, that's not what I mean to say.

Not what I'm saying.

I got these two tickets here

for you and Ariel,

and I was just kind of hoping

you'd go with me.

I can't.

Well, maybe I better

just leave them there in case

you change your mind maybe?

No, I won't.

I'm sorry.

But thank you. Thank you for everything.

Thank you for everything.

I'll see you around.

Be safe.

Wesley.

Came to talk me out of it?

No. I came to see you off.

I'm going to miss you.

Wesley, I'm sorry, baby.

I'm so sorry.

Be careful.

Be happy.

I love you, Mom.

This your first time flying commercial?

You say hi?

Hi, Mr. Wesley.

Hi, Ariel.

All right, baby, go sit down.

Now, look.

A lot of times in relationships

people don't say what they feel,

'cause they're afraid

of being hurt or letdown.

But I want to take this chance with you.

Even though what your mother said

scared me

and I don't want to be

a project for you, Wesley.

I have Ariel to think about and...

No.

Mommy!

Don't look.

I don't know what's out there,

or what's waiting for me,

but whatever it is, I'm gonna find it.
