Chapter 16

After we laughed till we couldn't laugh anymore, Mary and Ann went home. Even though I laughed my heart out I still felt like crying inside for the pain I felt when I got Cliff. It made me think of mom... Before she left. I put on my pjs and then I walked all the way to the goddess pond in the middle of the night. I sat at the edge of the pond. And waited.

Then the harvest goddess appeared like last time. She was wearing the same thing she wore when I last seen her. And she was still lightly touching over the water. She looked at me, and I looked at her. I started crying as I saw her there, and she sat down right beside me, just like if she were my own mother. For a few minutes I felt like a flashback of her besides me was the harvest goddess. The harvest goddess knew everything, she even knew why I was crying. I spoke to her and said "harvest goddess...why am I sad...a few minutes ago I was laughing harder then I ever had before." She held me beside her and she spoke soft and quiet. "Claire, you might have thought it was funny at first, but really deep down inside you know hurting Cliff wasn't the right thing to do. Have you ever thought of his pain?" I looked down and shook my head.

The goddess then showed me what Cliff is doing right now. He was at the church with a rag over his mouth. I then felt awful. The harvest goddess smiled at me and said "you know what to do. Go to him my darling." I gave her a hug then started running to the Church. I ran all the way to the church in the middle of the night and a walked in. Cliff way laying on one of the benches tired and resting. I sat down on the end of the bench. And tapped on his shoulder. He woke up a little groggy not expecting me there. At first I stared at him, waiting for him to be officially woken up. He yawned and just looked at me, he probably thought it was a dream. I laughed a little at the thought.

Then he sat up with the rag still over his mouth. Then I took the rag off of his mouth an I said I'm sorry. And this time....I kissed him.
