6, week 3, 2nd month, year 52
I
got the day off today, well, except for the chores. Anyway, Kedrick
says that I'm progressing really well in my training. He taught me
a kata yesterday. You remember that Sith lightsaber? Well Kedrick
says I can keep it but make sure my Aunt and Uncle don't find it.
Kedrick taught me how to go into a healing trance if I'm hurt or
get sick. I'm not very good at it but Kedrick says with time and
practice I'll be able to do it.
I
still haven't visited Daruu yet but a chance will come one day.

Diary,
Kedrick is leaving. I can't go with him and he says that he won't
be coming back. I don't want him to go but he says that there's
things he needs to take care of. I asked him if I'll ever see him
again and he asked me what does my heart tell me. I'm not going to
see him again until I become one with the Force. It's no fair! I
want to go with him but he says that this is where our paths part.
He's
leaving tonight. Who's going to continue with my training now? I
still have so much to learn.
Kedrick
told me something before I went back home. He said for me to take
care of his son. He's not making any sense. First, I don't even
know his last name. Second, this is the first time he mentioned that
he had a son. Third, I'm only six years old.
I
told Kedrick this and he said that I'll know when I see him.
I'm
writing outside with a candle for light. I'm watching the woods
where I think Kedrick's ship is going to lift off.
He's
gone. I saw his ship emerge from the trees and head into space. I
also felt his presence begin to dim as he got farther away. I'm
going to miss him. I promised him that I'll practice what he taught
me every day.
Day
1, week 4, 2nd month, year 52
Kedrick's
hut seems so empty now. I feel so alone. Kedrick was someone I could
talk to about anything. I know I can talk to my Aunt and Uncle but I
can't talk to them about the Force, wanting to be able to fly among
the stars, and things that seem trivial to them. Plus they can't
plant a sleep suggestion in my mind to help me go to sleep when I
can't sleep.
Day
2, week 4, 2nd month, year 52
Guess
who came over today? Daruu. He came riding on his Colopee. We played
together in the woods and explored it. I made sure we didn't go
near that cave. Daruu told me that his parents said that he shouldn't
trust me but he managed to find a way to get here without his parents
getting suspicious. How he did that I don't know. I'm just glad
that he came. His visit really brightened my day.
I
didn't tell my aunt or uncle that Daruu had come over. We had a lot
of fun and played a lot of games. I asked him if he ever dreamed of
traveling among the stars and he said that he did but he also dreamed
of bring the people back together. It is a good dream, I told Daruu
that I believed he would be able to do it. I talked to him about
trust and told him some things Kedrick told me. I think Daruu was
surprised I knew so much because it all made sense. He didn't ask
how I knew all this, for that I'm glad.
Day
6, week 4, 2nd month, year 52
I'm
practicing a lot and making sure I exercise. I made up a few new
routines for my run through the woods. Kedrick would be happy to know
that I'm doing really well.
Day
7, week 4, 2nd month, year 52
My
birthday is tomorrow. I wish Kedrick was here to celebrate it with
me. Maybe if I don't ever get to go into space then I can help
Daruu with his dream.
Diary,
the voice is back.
