The little one isn't as frail as I thought. They are not that strong but they make it up by being vicious. 

I don't like seeing the little one getting hurt. I do not know the reason why. 

I dressed his wounds. In silence.

"I need to get stronger," the little one said.

'Is this dream worth fighting for?'

I look down at the money.

"We have enough to last us for our travels."

"But mister you earned most of it."

The little one was right. 

"Does it matter?" 

I pause. 

"Does it matter?" I found myself repeating.

"Yes."

"Then we'll stay so you can fight another day."

The light in the little one's eyes brightened with determination. What a strange one. 

Diary Entry

It is my first day in a motel and hopefully it will be my last.
