[A little girl's voice comes through the journal. Except, it's a little more hardened and bitter than usual! Anyone who's spoken to B.B. before may not find the voice instantly recognizable, a definite change from the usual high pitched tone the young lady has.]

Are we done crying about everyone leaving yet?

I've been here what, half a year now? I get it at this point. Who stays and who goes is completely up to some asinine bullshit whim. But guess what? Everyone whining won't bring them back. That's just how it is.

Grow a pair and move the hell on already. Leaving is what humans do. If you don't know that by now, there's no hope for any of you.

[Don't mind her. She might be sampling some fruits from way up high.]

[Oh. Oh.

She hated where this was going. Completely and utterly hated it. It takes her a moment to reply.]

He would It's better for you to keep going and not cry so much. For his sake.

i'm not crying
but i guess you're right
he would want me to keep going
but how is he gonna know that i am if he's not here?
i could just give up
no one would know the difference.

If you give up, you're admitting to yourself that you're nothing but a failure and that he SHOULDN'T see you ever again. Your family doesn't need to be with you, standing beside you, idiot.

Good grief, what the hell are you making me write. If you love him, he's already in your heart. Carry on with him in there.
