Looking aroundI saw my Mom sitting in a chair besides my bed. She had her head restingin her hand with her eyes closed and appeared to be taking a nap... Withthe light in the room and not being able to see out a window I had noidea what time, or even what day it was. I tried to sit up some so Icould look around better and groaned again much louder.Mom immediately sat up. "Jordan... How do you feel?" I'm really sore, it's like every single muscle hurts..." I told her.Then I apologized. "Mom, I'm. " Was 'Lost Without You' okay? I'm not trying to compete with what you too did." I like it. I'm not jealous, really. Your voice sounds better than mine anyway." Don't sell yourself short, Kasey. I've never heard the song done better than you two did. How are you doing? Are you adjusting to the new school okay?" I guess," Kasey said somewhat sadly."As cute as you are, I'll bet the boys are all trying to get a date." Hailey felt Kasey stiffen. "What's the matter, Kasey?"Kasey paled for a moment. Maybe she was given the assignment of working with the other departed souls to chose the woman. And I was picked." These ideas just blow my mind." Mine too." Have you decided what to do with the book?" I asked."I think we should give it to the prosecutor," she said, "not to the police." Maybe I can call the district attorney here and see what he recommends. My dad and I know him. Let's make a copy of the book before we give it to anyone, just in case."We decided to take a jog before having. But Jed, did I mention Jed's not right in the head, ah shoot it don't matter much no how, he kept right on pesterin' Manwell about the free holes. Any how, after I finished eatin my beans, I went on out and helped Jed up off the street where Manwell had chunked him. Ya see, after the third or forth time, Manwell got tired of talkin' to ol' Jed. Dang if that little guy ain't tuffer'n boiled owl shit, he musta tossed Jed nigh on thirty foot. Jed landed on his head, don't recon it'll hurt him.
