As Thursday came, Leia Fox was doing better. She was still out of sports. Instead of sitting with her teammates n the bench to watch the game, she had remained at her house, listening to the game by radio. She was almost mad at the world and she did feel like she lost a bit of interest in hockey. She was mad because she felt useless. She couldn't drive to go anywhere. She could barely do school work until her injury was further along and the small words she'd write or read wouldn't mess her up.

The confusion she was stuck with started disappearing, but she wasn't clear to get back to sports. She needed to wait at least two weeks, just in case anything were to happen. She had went to school for the past few days, but didn't do much and listened most of the time.

Leia didn't know what the future held for her. As she was losing slight interest in her favorite sport, she was losing interest in other things as well. As the days went by and she was alone doing the same thing over and over again, she had all the time in the world to think. She wondered about it all. Did she want to do hockey for the rest of her life? Would hockey be there when she went to college or university? Would she quit it next year? What about Adam? She wondered if she'd still love him in a year, a month, a week?

As much as that part pained her, she didn't know about it. Did relationships last when they were started by two crazy thirteen year old kids? They weren't a high school couple who met and fell in love, they were a middle school couple who fell in love. Was it real love? Or the blind first love everyone's crazy about?

As she had grown upset in her bedroom, she turned the radio off and the TV. Her room a disaster, again and like usual, Leia paced around with a hand on her chin. She loved Adam a lot, but she wondered if they were fading as the days went by. The head injury seemed to cause a lot more arguments between them. He thought she was blind because she should realize all the things he, and other people, were doing for her. She thought he was wrong for many things, but did hope they would fix them.

Leia did not know what to do, and so, she sat on chest at the end of her bed, pondering. The windows were open, the radio and TV were off, the room was a mess. Everything seemed to be back to normal, except for the dear Leia Fox, top female scorer of the JV Eden Hall Ducks 1997, who didn't know what the next day brought her, ever.
