Chapter Thirteen:

Another month has passed.  This time I didn't get sick or anything.  Instead, I was catching up on the month I've missed while I was sick.  I found myself catching up on school work, and gradually working myself up to jogging again.  So far, I've been walking very briskly.

Smith says he doesn't mind walking, although I can see him jogging in place.  I hope to eventually get to where I once was.  It doesn't matter how much longer I may or may not have on this earth, I have to make the most of it no matter what.

You're in the fight of your life, I mentally tell myself.  It is important, Kalura, you do whatever it takes to get through this thing called life.  Are you ready to rumble?

Indeed I am. I won't go down without a fight.  There was a quote that says, "The only thing you have to know are your words."  If I keep having my faith, and I keep on fighting the fight, I should be alright.  Xander convinced me of that the day we were at the Dali museum.

He convinced me to give school another chance.  I told him I'd try, and that is why I'm walking the park today.  I thought I would at least see him here, but that's alright.  I suppose I'll see him later.  I keep on walking, and that's when I notice something is different.

It's almost as if everything has stopped.  The trees stopped blowing.  The squirrels stopped running around.  I turn to look at Smith, who is two steps behind me, and frozen apparently.  I'm not even sure what's going on.  I walk over to Smith to see what's going on.

"You are like finding a needle in a haystack."  A voice says to me.  I turn around to see Chase standing in front of me.

I think I know where this is going.
