Chapter 38

• When Ander could not bear it anymore, he stood up to leave but felt a squeeze on his hand. He turned and Alex was staring up at him. His joy knows no bounds. He felt like jumping, crying, singing, or anything. He did not even know what to do but there was one thing he could never forget in a time like this, something Alex taught him. In a time of nothing to do, when you lose words or action, a simple hug will do. It means a lot.

• His brother has always been her driving point, the reason she wants to live.
