She led me down the now familiar mud track past the eerie‚ dancing trees‚ to the spot she planned on burying him. And it wasn’t until I was standing in front of the headstone that I realized he was gone ; that was the first time I truly cried. I slowly walked down the pebbly path and admired the cherry blossoms that were flourishing around the graveyard. It was a cold Aprils night and it was going to be dark soon

It was my first time running the 100 dash‚ and it was one of the scariest‚ most nerve racking moments of my life. I couldn’t help but feel like I was the new kid on the block.

I looked
