I know being together is a good thing. Ma couldn't stop Old Nick by herself, but she could stop him after I came. I think that's why you see that good people stay together, like in families or as friends. Everyone's stronger together.

Yeah. Sometimes I think I want to be a police officer when I grow up, because then I can stop bad guys everywhere. But I'm not big enough yet.

I look at Michelle, and I remember Ma when she sat in her room — the one in the house with the hammock — and talked about all the things she wanted to do before Old Nick stole her. Some of them, she can't do anymore. I hope Michelle still can.

What kind of job do you want to do?
