hes my friend and i wont let you call him a monster ! but we wo n't miss each other the same way . i wondered where he 'd gone off to ; maybe he was still in the car . the marine commander was giving it a fast sweep through his field glasses . we really do n't know each other at all . i froze , and turned slowly on my heels . at least one of us has a chance at being happy . she sat there , her knees drawn into her chest , staring into the darkness .
