I check out. As I am walking out of Lacey MT, I see Ellis. She is sitting in a rocking chair yet she looks more wrinkled than before. She rocks back and forth in a sequence. That lady is just weird. I walk out. I ended up buying a plethora of items. My favorite item by far, was the charm bracelet. 5 minutes. 5 minutes. 5 minutes left till I see him. Till I get to meet him. My dad. I started speed walking. Then jogging, then running. I wanted to see him so badly. My emotion started bubbling inside of me, like a volcano ready to erupt. The water came out of my eyes, pouring out. I continued running, on the verge of sprinting. I looked at my shoes, my feet were burning, but my momentum wouldn't stop. Couldn't stop. I looked ahead of me, the restaurant a block away. 3 minutes. I slowed to a run. Then a jog. Then a speed walk. And then a walk. A steady walk. I looked at the ground. It was so rough, so full of texture. Then it appeared. An earring. Not a random earring, it belonged to Ellis.
