How Love Affects Us
“You’ve been elected to represent the track team this year.” uttered Kelsey.
“What? You’re not running this year?”
Audrey, a 17 year old girl who loves running, got on the track team this year. How did she get on the track team? People say she cheated, she did “dirty” things, but most of all they said she got lucky.
Audrey was not lucky.
In her entire life, she has always had borderline grades. From C or D or F, she pulls out a victory always. Like running, she never did stop until she crossed the finish line, but once she did cross the line, things always seem to fall apart. Her father, like birds, flew far away from her life.
Always arguing and fighting and running and most of all crying, Audrey’s mother kicked her own father out of the house.

Breathing in heavily, “Because…I love standing up for people more than my games.” Teach pulled Arthur away, in spite of me wanting to talk to him more. Lining up to the line for the cheering of the crowd for the band playing instruments for my cheering for Kelsey’s defeat, Arthur was ready. The coach raised his pistol while I was walking away. One. He shot the pistol. Two. The band played loudly. Three. Screams casted out the instruments. Four. Cameras flashed bright lights. Five. I was long gone.
I never knew who won that race, but I understand what everyone was trying to teach me. Love is what makes us run. The more love we have for some thing , the more we endeavor to keep it close. Daisy who loved me always kept me close to her, Arthur who loved standing up for people kept those who were bullied nearby, while Teach loved seeing students doing their best, pushing them to their maximum
