Chapter Forty-Five: "Sassy One"

You...interest me. You came to me at a time when I was regaining trust.

You walked around and patrolled, watching the clock tick tock its way to the end of the night.

I could not stay long. Why would I. The shift had ended, so I left.

I had to.

But then one night, I didn't. I stuck around. We spoke. I presented to you as fully as I could. I showered you with information about what was behind the curtain, and you embraced it.

You realized there was something, but could not see what it was, until you learned, then it opened your eyes as to who I was and why things were done in a manner that they were done.

It made sense.

I made sense to you.

Your jokes brought a smile to his face, and to me, well, I knew something was brewing.

Perhaps there was a reason why we met when we met.

Then timed passed and we shared more.

But then you were gone.

You are one of my newest Chapters. Fresh. But learning.

Why?

Because you stuck around. Even when you were gone.

And now you are still here.

Sassy as ever.

I can remember the beginning of this Chapter.

I can feel the pages turning.

And there is much more to be seen.

To be read.

And to be written.
