Wonder
-*-*-
I've
often wondered what life would have been like if I'd never found my sister.
If I'd never
met Logan, or had a child.
Some
days I come to the space needle to just look out across the city, or the water,
or look at the stars and wonder about the what ifs.
For
instance – What if Logan had never been shot and paralyzed. It's amazing what he's overcome, but it's
still a wonder of what life would've been like if he had never lost the use of
his legs.
Sketchy
added excitement to our lives – what if he'd never been born?
What if
I'd never been born?
What if
I hadn't been raised at Manticore, or on the run? Or what if I'd been caught? Would I have been working for Lydecker? Would I've been helping to re-capture the others? Would I be dead by now?
Who
knows. Maybe. Maybe there is a god, and He planned this. But then again, there's no such thing as a
god. There is only man.
Still
every so often I'm going to sit here and wonder about life.
Whether
my sister is happy with her life. Whether Lexi and Doni and Ube will ever be truly safe. If the three of them will ever understand
what they are.
I'll
wonder whether Bling, Sarah, and Doug will be friends with us forever.
But then
again, life is life. What if's will only
trip me up in the long run. I must only
believe in the truth.
Except…It's
more fun to wonder.
Kai stood up and looked down at the base of the needle. Max and Logan were sitting in the car, patiently watching her. On Max's face was a smile, and she patted her swollen stomach.
And
thus, life goes on.
