Lionel

It is unusual or am I feeling unusual about something usual for someone her age. She must be what, a 20-something kid and I am.....

Why am I so drawn towards her? She does not fit the ideal type of someone I would think about, she is too immature, too childish, too skinny, and unbearably pale. But her presence makes me hear by heart beat twice as strongly as hers. She fights like someone I know, I loved that someone for all my life. Why does she remind me of her?

I need to find everything about her or am I wasting my time in pursuing this? Maybe, she is just a traveller out here on a teensy whim to explore. Whatever it is, I can't let her near our family.

Ma has warned me that she might be the key to something, a beginning and an end. There would be pain, but there would be something beautiful. Why did she say that? Why is she screwing with my head like this? Ma and her riddles. Can she talk ever talk straight?

Ok, enough, enough!
