Beautiful chapter, Anti-K
...
The scenes with Clark's parents were written so delicately, so warmly. You could feel in the writing how fragile life is at the hospital. With their health, but also, with the situation
.
I really enjoyed Clark's perspective in this section. Getting into his head a little bit. Thankfully, it seems like Clark is starting to do better. He's starting to sort of 'wake up' to what his situation has been, realize what he wants--if even still unlikely in his mind, and see that
maybe he still CAN be himself.
Hope...it's such a necessity. He has to have hope. But--like Groobie pointed out--hope can be dashed. Dreams can be crushed. Your reality isn't always what you want it to be.
This chapter felt great to read. I am so (however cautiously
) optimistic that things will keep heading in the right direction
.
Heading to Chapter 17 to find out a bit more
