Peter was walking down the street heading to his apartment, when he saw Kuri.
"Hey Kuri!" Peter waved.
"Oh hey Peter!" Kuri said.
"So how's work been? I know you've been ghost writing and working for the police." Peter said.
"Yes its hard to balance two jobs, but what are you gonna do? I gotta pay the bill, ya know."
Kuri grinned. "I'm just glad you got your own place. How's it been?"
"Excellent. I'm in college now. You didn't want to go?" Peter asked.
"I never liked school, Peter." Kuri admitted.
Peter knew why. School had never been easy for Kuri, or any of them. But he loved to learn, couldn't imagine life without it.
"Don't worry about me. I'm doing what I always wanted, and keeping Grams happy too." Kuri said. "It's the dream, right?"
"Yeah. The dream." Peter said.
He neglected to mention that no dream of his would be complete without her.
