Chapter 10: Thanks
Life was a mystery for some people. It could end, start anew like if nothing had ever happened. Especially for a certain prosecutor. Miles Edgeworth found it very strange to see one of his old friends, no….rivals, playing poker and drinking nothing but juice. He wondered how people could change like that, he wondered if this person that now talked with so much confidence and laugh with so much joy could be the same man. This man, who, in earlier years could hardly hold a good a explanation when in court, he needed something else to counter it, while Miles could easily counter it back, yet he would lose. This man, who was normally nervous and needed a shoulder to cry on, whatever happen to the old attorney? This man, whose life had taken a huge turn and had left him the way he is now. I guess that's what life does to you…
Thinking that life could do many things, for example realize your mistakes at the last moment and make you come back to pay them. That man had taught him that, about almost nine years ago. This man, who now, in the eyes of any other person was but another piece of the puzzle, an insignificant piece that could be thrown away. Franziska would have said something like that…But, Miles never wondered why he never said thanks? He never thanked the man for doing him that favor, make him realize what a true lawyer was. Why they were there? Whether it be guilty or not, they always had to find the truth. Miles never knew why the ace attorney, Phoenix Wright, was now playing poker and drinking juice, at least he knew one thing. Life at the end for him, made him happy, something anyone can be thankful for. "Thanks, Phoenix Wright…"
