The eating is slow because I do not plan on doing anything special today. At least, that’s what I believe until my monotonous meal is interrupted as my dad walks into the kitchen. “Ryker,” he says, “We are going bowling today. We will leave in twenty minutes.” Bowling!

She was the best thing that ever happened to me. I never understood why she left me. I mean, sure I robbed 15 banks and 50% of my money was robbed, but that never seemed to bother her.
