Just as I had done, my father sleeps off and on for days. Sometimes I sit by the bed in Marta’s house and stare at him until I feel like it isn’t a dream anymore. Sometimes Jimmi joins me and sometimes, when I’m alone I weep and I am not sure why. Maybe it’s because of everything I had been through to get to this point or maybe it was for everything I had lost. Part of me thinks that I should be glad for all of the things I had gained.But the hero doesn’t get the reward. The hero pays the price. As it is in every story.
