Robby's on the Run

Will remained in the truck listening to raindrops tap down on the rooftop, the afternoon Robby told Luke he was going on the run. He thought of things in the past, things he wished he could forget. The rain reminded Will of Monika’s passing. It poured heavy that evening. He remembered watching water pool up in a parking lot pothole the night her body was pulled from the Bear Creek river, the night he rode with her father in the back of a squad car to the coroner's office, a night seared into his memory forever. Some things aren’t meant to be forgotten, they’re meant to remind us of the road that lies ahead, and the many hills we have yet to climb.
