The Tenth Litany

As Steve walked to the infirmary, he felt a slight pang of pain in his chest. It wasn't a physical pain rather it was an emotional pain that there was no one to celebrate his victory with him.

'I wish Grandpa was here...' he thought as he kicked a peddle while walking. No matter how much he wanted to clear his mind and avoid thinking about his friends, his mind still wandered back to his friends who were killed, Trygve and Susan, and he clenched his hands into fists while gnashing his teeth as he fought back the tears that threatened to fall down his cheeks.

Shortly after, he arrived at the infirmary to see Anna and tell her about the test.

"So that was how you won?" Anna asked while laughing heartily, her laugh sounded like music to Steve's ears.

"Yes..." Steve replied slowly, he was still entranced by Anna's pleasant laughter.
