Sometimes...you may not know when your lost

But when your found...It will all come back


~Present (Continuation of "Run")

AUSTIN


As I opened my eyes...

I could see a man sitting beside me

An elderly man...old....but wise

Elderly Man

I saw you on the news young man

Quite a mess you've gotten yourself into...

You need to be back at that mental institution before sundown of your breaking you parole

And you could end up in jail

...Now tell me why a smart young man like you...is doing this to himself?


Austin

As I tried to speak
Faint words came from my mouth...

"It isn't my fault..."

Tears ran down my cheeks

"it-it isn't my fault

"I didn't do those horrible things..."

Elderly Man

I know, your story is pretty much everywhere

The things you've been through... I'm so sorry

Austin


Thank you,that means alot.

Elderly Man

But Austin

Your future isn't written in stone...

But if you go to jail...that changes everything

So,please think...think

Austin

You,you've been through things haven't you

If you dont mind me asking,what is your name?

~The man just smiled and answered...

In due time,you'll know...

But for now,we need to get you to that institution

And fast...

~As I climbed into his car Hope was in me, a feeling I had not had In a long,long time...
