Unknown : My breath echoed harshly in my ears, a faint echo of memory past.

Then, sprinting footsteps purposeful and to the right.

Blinding pain.

Hanna's Pov

My eyes shot open, the last of my dream-or memory- slipping back into darkness. I stared dolefully at my ceiling, mind focusing on reality. It had been a week since my physical therapy had ended. I hadn't done much of anything since I had arrived. What was there for me to do? Mother's job had to taken her to a new town a year ago. Since I didn't want to be close to campus, I had moved in with her. So I was in a new town, my hobby and career were gone, and I wasn't in school... So what's was there? I groaned and looked at my phone. Who was texting me?

(TEXT)

Coach Bella : How are things?

Coach Bella : Are you settled?

I was tempted to just set down and continue my moping, but she had done so much for me. I owed her my politeness. Even if over professional relationship was over.

Hanna : Yes All moved in.

Couch Bella : That's good. Your mom says...

Couch Bella : you haven't left your room

Hanna : She's exaggerating.

Couch Bella : The best thing is to get up. Join a club, find a hobby. If you don't

Couch Bella : I'll just find one for you.

I felt myself half smile. That was my old coach alright. She had a- How was I going to find my new life if I stayed locked in my room?

Hanna : "it's now or never. Get your head on straight."

The words sounded a bit apathetic, but it was enough!

Slowly, I got out of bed and began putting clothes on. It was a scruffy t-shirt and sweatpants, but at least it was something. I shuffled out my door, blinking blearily.

Mother : "Oh Hanna, I didn't know you were up!"

Hanna : "But you know to tattle on my couch that I'm being a hermit?"

Mother : "I'm just worried about you, honey."

Hanna : "I know. I was just teasing you Mom."

Mother : "You've got such a good deadpan. Sometimes it's hard to tell."

Hanna : "Anyways, I'm gonna go for a walk. See you later."

Father : "Wait! Before you go, what would you like for dinner?"

Hanna : "Teriyaki Chicken."

Mother & Father : "we'll make sure it's ready for you when you get home."

Hanna : "Thanks!"

I headed out the door, unsure of what I was doing, but still enjoying the fresh breeze on my face. I strolled slowly, taking care with where I placed my feet. I realized that this was my first time walking on my own since...

Hanna : "Enough of that. You're supposed to be not moping."

I signed, looking around to distract myself, and a bit of color caught my eye. I walked over to a post to see a flyer taped to it.

COME SEE OUR MMA DEMONSTRATION FOR KUNFU THIS THURSDAY AT THREE IN THE TOWN SQUARE!

Hanna : "Martial Arts? Well that could be interesting. I guess..."

I looked at my phone and saw that I had enough time to get there.

Hanna : "Well...why not?"

I made my way to the center of the town- and I only got lost twice! By the time I arrived, there was already a sizable crowd available.

Guess.. I am late...
