“Possibly, but right now let’s just worry about what your parents have
to say.” Mr. Saunders chuckles. “You sure are excitable Jack.”
“Jack!
Could you please come here? Your father and I, would like to speak to you.”
Jack’s mom calls from upstairs. Heading up he gets a nervous shiver down his
spine. What if they don’t allow him to go? What will happen if they do? Either way
his life as he knows it is going to change.
Creaking open the door Jack walks into the room. Standing near the bed
his parents are there with an odd expression on their faces. “Jack…we want to
do what is best for you in this situation. That being said your mother and I
well, we can’t quite decide what to do. So we want to know, what is it that you
want? Do you want to go to the Academy or do you want to stay here and continue
to go the school here?” His father questions.
“I want to
go. This school sounds amazing. I want to experience everything that they have
to offer. If nothing I would have something powerful to ad to a resume in the
future. I want this I really do.” Jack says in reply.
“Are you
sure sweatheart? You will be gone for almost an entire year. This is a big
decision.” Jack’s mom asks.
“I am. It’s really important to me that I try something different. I don’t
want to be that guy who doesn’t try for things like this. I want to go and
explore and learn new and exciting things. This school will give me the option
to do so. I want to go.” Jack states with an affirming nod.
