"Listen to me, whatever you have to say, it's not good enough. I just ditched one of my only friend when she needed me the most, and you know that!" thundered the child. His throat closed as he felt tears pouring down his cheeks like a storm. "It's not fair! It's not fair! How can I be a hero of I leave the people I care about in the dirt?!"
His sobs filled his room as Piff and Daisy stood there horrified at their "hero". How can they do that to me? How can I do that to Hope? He looked at the leaders above him and shook his head. "Why am I not good enough?" he questioned.
Daisy turned to Piff and then turned back to Archie and let the truth fly out of her mouth. "You can't tell your friends about us Archie. I'm so sorry Archie, I really am!" Now Daisy's sobs echoed throughout Archie's room. And soon enough the little hero and the little girl let go of everything and let the waterworks flow.
