Chapter 15: Speak To You

It seemed like every one just looked at each other for a few moments, as if they did not have a clue as to just what it was that was going on, nor what it was that we should be doing right now, even though Sabin had made it clear in advance, as to just what it was that we should be doing right at this very moment in time. I could not blame any one for the fact that they did not want to step forward and make the first move in all of this how ever, as I knew that it was simply just due to the fact that we were no longer wearing masks, and it meant that each and every one of us was going to be seen in front of the public eye, well, besides Noah, as for some reason, who was the only one that had a mask on his face at this very moment in time.

A part of me wanted to say that it made sense, due to the fact that he was one of the managers that worked for the government, and the leader ship, but at the exact same time as well, I also felt like it just did not make all too much sense to me, and it still felt like this story was not lining up for me, and we were about to be set up for a trap. None of it made sense to me, if I was going to be for real with my self, as it just did not make all too much sense to me as to why he would take us this far, only to stab us in our backs. I gulped a bit to my self, all at the exact same time too, as I felt like I was thinking far too much right now, and that I needed to calm my self down a bit, and I needed to try to relax my self, which was quite a bit hard if I was going to be completely honest too, due to the fact that there was so much going on in my life right now, that was not just the rebellion.

The rebellion was in fact a lot to do with it, but I knew that at the exact same time as well, that I was not the leader in all of this, and I also knew that I had do do some thing for my Sandy, who was the love of my life, as I knew that I could not live with out her at the exact same time too. If we did in fact win this war, and she was no longer there, than I was not all too sure as to just what it was that I would do. I was sure that some thing good would come out of this for me, but in the end, would it be good at all if I did not have my Sandy by my side? I was not all too sure if I really had the answer to that question right now, as I did my best to try to shake off all of those thoughts from my head none the less, as I knew that it was all besides the point at this point.

I got my eyes, and my focus back on to just what it was that was going on right at this very moment in time, as I saw a bit of some movement from not all too far away from me, signifying that someone was finally doing some thing about all of this. I looked over to Sabin at first, as I would have thought that it would have been him, as he was the leader in all of this after all, but as I saw him standing still, I noticed that it was simply not the case one bit, as I was quite a bit shocked by it. The person that had stepped up to do some thing on the fact that Sabin had told us to go, was a person that I did not recognize one bit, as it was not even some one that I went to work with, never the less, which did in fact have me quite a bit surprised, all at the exact same time as well.

I stared for just a few moments, as I watched the man hop out in to the streets alone, in front of every one at first, as I just was not all too sure as to just what it was that I should do right now, as a part of me wanted to join the guy, but at the exact same time as well, a part of me felt quite a bit scared to do so in the very first place any ways, none the less. I sighed a bit to my self, as I then began to breath in quite a bit, at the exact same time too, as I then saw that a few others then all of the sudden seemed to grow a pair, all at once, as I then saw that a bunch of the others were jumping down in the street, to get the attention of the man who was leading the caravan, as it was clear that the man had not noticed, nor did he have a single clue that a single man had jumped down in front of the road, blocking the path for the horses.

It was clear that it just a few moments, the horses would run in to the poor man, and that he would die from the injuries that he sustained from the hit of the horses running him over, even if the horses were not going all too fast, it did not matter. How ever, as soon as a bunch of the others started to jump in front of the road, I then heard a loud neigh from the horses, showing that man that was at the front of the caravan, that there were people in the way, or at the very least, there was some thing that was in the way that was blocking them from being able to keep on going, as the horses stopped the stable that the man was riding on, and it caused a bit of a chain reaction to the ones in the back, as those peoples horses did the exact same time as well, none the less.

The man was quite a bit confused as to just what it was that was going on right at this very moment in time, which I felt like I could not blame the guy for, as I knew that the guy was just trying to do his job, and it was clear that it did in fact annoy him as to the fact that his horses had all of the sudden seemed to stop, when they were so close to their destination. I blinked my eyes a few times, as I got my focus off of all of that how ever, all at the exact same time too, as I then all of the sudden, got my focus on just what it was that was going on right beside me, right now, which was of course the fact that Kenton, all of the sudden decided that he was going to speak up to both me and Dwayne right at this very moment in time as well, as I saw him nod to us from the corner of my eyes, as I also heard his voice which was what really got our attention.

The both of us turned our heads over to him, as it was clear that the both of us were quite a little bit confused as to just what it was that he was even doing at this very moment in time, in the very first place any ways, as I had my eyes squinted on him. He did not seem to be all too bothered by that at all how ever, as he more or less had a bit of a blank look on his face, all at the exact same time too, as it was clear that neither one of us had a single clue as to just what it was that he was even doing right at this very moment in time any ways. I blinked my eyes a few times all of the sudden, as in the end, I nodded to him, as I saw Dwayne do the same from the corner of my eyes, as the both of us let him know that we had his full attention on him right now. I could tell that it made him feel a little bit better, as he then all of the sudden continued to speak to the both of us, as I listened as to just what it was that he even had to say, at the exact same time too.

"Come on guys! We have to go and join every one else! This is what we came here to do!" He said to us, as he then all of the sudden squinted his eyes at me, which there was a fair reason for him doing that, as it was due to the fact that I knew that Dwayne had all of the sudden turned his head over to me, all at the exact same time too, as it was clear that he was trying to make sure that I was in on this. I was the leader in this group after all I suppose, as I was a bit lost still, for just a few moments at the exact same time too, as I really just did not have a clue as to just what it was that I should do. I was quite a bit afraid, if I was not going to lie to my self never the less, as I knew that my entire life, I had always been afraid to do some thing about all of the evil, just due to the fact that I knew you would get killed if you did.

The attack at our job site felt like it was a whole lot different, due to the fact that I knew that we had masks on. This was a lot different than all of this how ever, as we did not have our masks on right now, and our faces were exposed right now. Well, every one's besides Noah's, who I saw was already on the street with Sabin right now, as they had been the first ones to follow the man at the exact same time too. I blinked my eyes a few times, as I gulped a bit to my self, at the exact same time too, as I was not all too sure as to just what it was that I was doing right at this very moment in time. I knew what it was that I had to do, and I knew that these people, maybe not exactly these ones, had taken my wife, the person that I loved the most in this whole world, away from me.

Now that it seemed like I finally began to realize that, at the exact same time too, the fear that I had, then all of the sudden seemed to disappear from me, all at the exact same time too, as I then began to breath in quite a bit to my self never the less, as I knew that I had to do some thing about this, and I at least had to try to get my Sandy back from all of this, by any means necessary. I blinked my eyes a few times, once again, as I then all of the sudden, much to my own surprise, and much to the surprise of the other 2 that were standing right beside me right at this very moment in time as well, then all of the sudden cracked a bit of a smile on my face, as I nodded to the both of them all of the sudden, to let the both of them know that I was ready for this, and we had to get started right now, as we had to help block the road.

We had to show every one that this was for real, and that this was nothing to be joking about, all at the exact same time too. The both of them were a little bit lost by what it was that I seemed to be so happy about, which I could not blame them for I suppose, due to the fact that the both of them knew that these were not so happy times for me right now. I sighed a bit to my self how ever, as I got my focus off of all of that at the exact same time too, as I then got my focus on the fact that we needed to join with the rest of the rebellion on the fact that we needed to block the road at the exact same time too, as I saw that we were one of the last ones left that had not joined them just yet. I nodded a bit to my self, all at the exact same time too, as I then got my focus off of the fact that I was just standing here still for some odd reason or another.

I then jumped on with the rest of the rebellion, in to the road, as I then heard the foot steps of Kenton and Dwayne, as the both of them landed beside me, all at the exact same time too. I felt a lot more safe, now that I had the both of them with me right now, as I breathed in quite a bit all at once, and I then stared at the caravan that was ahead of us, which was now completely standing still right now. The man who was at the front of it, as I could see down the hill, was not looking all too happy with what it was that he saw was going on it front of his own eyes, right at this very moment in time too, as the man then all of the sudden jumped down from the one that he had been sitting on, and the one that he had been riding all the way in to the city, as he then tilted his head at us, not all too sure as to just what it was that we were doing.

I then saw that from behind him, the ones that were on the ones that were following him, then too jumped down such as he had just done, as if they were trying to some how fight us, even though there was maybe 10 to 15 of them, and there was over 100 of us, all at the exact same time too. It would be stupid if they thought that they could beat us in a battle, or a fight right now, as I tilted my head a bit, not all too sure as to just what it was that they were doing, or what it was that they were even thinking right now. As I stared at them for just a few moments in time, I then all of the sudden stared to notice as to the fact that the reason why the people in the back had jumped down, was simply due to the fact that they had been stopped in the road for some odd reason, and they were trying to figure out what was going on.

When they saw just what was going on right now, they then instantly began to back up a bit, as it was clear that they were afraid that we were going to do some thing to them. That was not the case at all how ever, as we had been told by Noah, that these were simply just normal people, that were kind of forced to work for the government, as it really was not their fault that they had been in the middle of this. I sighed just a bit to my self how ever, as I then got my focus off of all of that at the exact same time too, and I got my focus on the fact that the man who was at the front of all of this, who to my surprise, did not seem to be scared at all as to just what it was that was going on right now, and what it was that we were doing, then all of the sudden began to speak up to all of us, all at the exact same time too, as I heard his loud voice ring through the road of the city.

It was a bit hard to see his face, due to the fact that there was so many people in front of me right now, but I did manage to look at the man right in to his eyes, even if his eyes were not on me at all right now, as it did not seem like he had a single bit of fear as to just what it was that we were doing clearly, as it was very much to my own surprise none the less. I gulped a bit, as I was now starting to think, all at the exact same time too, that this might not be the best idea, as I was starting to regret the decision that I had made all at the exact same time too, as to the fact that I had decided to join in this, as I knew that a lot of the people in the rebellion had decided not to show up. Well, when I said a lot, I meant maybe 10 people, but still... I got my focus off of all of those thoughts, all at the exact same time as well, as I then got my focus on the fact that the man was speaking up to all of us right now, as I then began to start to listen as to just what it was that the man that was leading this caravan at the exact same time too, had to say to us in the very first place any ways.

"Every one move out of the way! It's a very brave and noble effort that you are doing right now, but we need to get these supplies to the mayor ASAP, so you just move out of the way, and we will not say any thing about this to the leaders..." The man said to every one that was on the road, all at the exact same time too, as I saw that a bunch of the people were quite a bit scared as to just what it was that the man had said in the very first place to us any ways, as I saw that a few of them did in fact start to back up all of the sudden, which I saw that the man had noticed, as he grinned a bit, as it was clear that he had already began to notice that at the exact same time too, as it was clear that he kind of viewed the fact that he had already won, as it was clear that he had noticed just how easy it was for him to scare every one off.

I sighed just a bit to my self, as I was not going to lie at the exact same time too, I was a little bit tempted to do the same thing that every one else was doing right now, as I dipped my head a bit low to the ground, as I felt quite a bit guilty for it. I knew that the man had been trying to scare us off, and it was clear that he had in fact done as such a thing at the exact same time too, as I saw a few of the people were starting to head back to the sides of the road, to let the man and his caravan pass. It was clear that a lot of people in this rebellion were so easy to suede and giving up as to the fact that they were all heading back, and a lot of them were scared, all at the exact same time too, as I started to do the same that every one else was doing at first. This rebellion was a bit of a failure, as it was already coming clear to me.

It felt like all of this had been done for no sort of reason at all, all at the exact same time too, as I then began to head over to the side of the road, such as every one else was doing, to let the man and all of the rest of the caravan pass at the exact same time as well. The man had been trying to scare us clearly, and in the end, he had in fact scared us off, as it was quite a bit disappointing to me at the exact same time as well. I sighed just a bit all at once, as I shook my head, as I kind of felt like a bit of an idiot. What was I thinking? Did I really think that out of all of the rebellions that had sprung up in the city, in the past, that this one was all of the sudden going to be the one that was going to save the world, and save the nation from all of the evil that was going on? It was time to face the facts that the world was going to be like this for ever.

I kept on going forward to the edge of the road at first, until I then all of the sudden saw every one stop at the edge, and they all turned their heads back up to the front, as to just what it was that was going on up there in the very first place any ways, which did in fact have me quite a bit confused at first, all at the exact same time as well, as I gulped just a bit, all at once, as I was not all too sure as to just what it was that was even going on right now. We're we just messing around with the man? Was this all a part of the plan by Sabin, and I had just some how, simply managed to miss as to the fact that Sabin had told us that this was what it was that we were planning on doing? It just did not make all too much sense to me, if I was going to be for real with my self, as I was quite a bit lost by all of it.

I shook off all of those thoughts how ever, as I got my focus off of all of that, as I then did just what it was that every one else was doing right now, right at this very moment in time, which was the fact that they were all looking at the front of this right now, and they were all looking at some thing in specific right now. I did not have a clue as to just what it was that it could be at first, until I too, my self, then all of the sudden got my eyes up at the front, and I then began to notice as to just what it was the was going on right now. I blinked my eyes a few times, as I was quite a bit shocked by it. I noticed that it was Sabin, that had some how managed to stop every one, with just a simple gesture, all at the exact same time as well, which was very much to my surprise as to the fact that it had some how managed to get every one to stop, none the less.

He simply had put his fist up, to try to get every one to stop with what it was that they were doing right now. He had done a damn good job at it, at the exact same time as well. I suppose, that he was the leader in all of this after all, so every one was just doing as to just what it was that he was telling them to do. I still was a little bit lost by it, all at the exact same time too though, as I had a bit of a blank look on my face, as I looked up at the front of this. Sabin had his fist out for just a little bit longer, just to make sure that each and every person that was trying to head back, had for certain stopped. Once he knew that he was safe as to that being the fact, he then put his fist down, all at the exact same time too. After just a little bit more time seemed to pass, Sabin then all of the sudden, much to my own surprise, began to speak back up to the man that had just spoken to him.

He spoke up, in quite a bit of a louder voice that the man had just done, which was a bit of a surprise to me. It was clear that he was making sure that not only did we all hear as to just what it was that he had to say, but he also wanted to make sure that the rest of the people that were in the caravan, could hear just what it was that he had to say in the very first place any ways. I nodded just a bit to my self, as it was clear that Sabin was not done, and he was not as easy to give up, such as the rest of the rebellion had been so easy to let that be the case. I was sure that when all was said and done, so long as we made it out of here alive, than he was going to have a stern talking to us, and to all of the people that had tried to run back to the edge of the road, to let the men pass. I was one of those people, at the exact same time too, as I knew that I was also guilty of it.

I sighed just a bit to my self, as I did my best to get my focus off of those thoughts as well how ever, as I knew that I should simply not stress too much about that, and that I should worry about it when the time was to come, as I got my focus instead, on just what it was that was going on at the front of all of this right now, which was of course, the fact that Sabin, was speaking up to every one, to make sure that we all heard each and every word that he had to say to every one, all at the exact same time as well. I was quite a bit lost, as well as the fact that I was a little bit shocked by it at the exact same time too, but in the end, I did in fact begin to listen as to just what it was that Sabin had to say back to the man in the very first place any ways, never the less.

"I am going to call your bluff... We know that the government has too much on their hands right now... Now, I think we can make a different deal..." He said back to the man, all at the exact same time as well, which did in fact have me quite a bit surprised at the exact same time too, as to just what it was that he had said to the man, as it was quite a bit ballsy, as to just what it was that he had even said, none the less. I blinked my eyes a few times, as I also felt like, at the exact same time too, that it was quite a bit dangerous how ever. It all came back to just what it was that Noah had said to us, and whether or not we were really ready to trust that man, all at the exact same time too. I gulped just a bit to my self, all of the sudden, as I was not all too sure about any of it right now, as I was not sure as to just what it was that was real, and just what it was that was fake any more. I got my focus off of all of those thoughts once again how ever, as I knew that now was not the time to be exactly in my head right now, as I knew that there were a lot more important, and a lot greater things coming in to play right now, that I had to be listening to right now. I got my focus on all of it, as I then saw, all at the exact same time too, that the man that had just spoken to us, now all of the sudden looked down at the ground, as I could tell that he had a bit of a guilty look on his face, all at the exact same time too, for some odd reason or another, which confused me even more, as to just what it was that the man might feel like he was guilty of. I tried to piece it together in my head right now, even though I knew that I should not be in my head at all at this very moment in time, as I was sure that I could save that for later. I nodded a bit to my self, all at the exact same time as well, as I then all of the sudden began to hear Sabin begin to speak once again, and I listened as to just what it was that he had to continue to say to the man. "You give us all of your shit... And we will not kill you... Hell... You can maybe even join us, I am sure that don't treat you all too nicely either..."

I blinked my eyes a few times, as I kind of felt like Sabin might have made a bit of a mistake as to just what it was that he had said at the end, all at the exact same time too. I was not all too sure about any of it, or if what it was that he had said was really all too great of an idea either. The fact that we were about to let in more people that worked for the government, kind of scared me, as I felt like one was enough. I sighed a bit to my self, as I felt like I should not care how ever, as I knew that I was not the leader in this, and that there should not be all too much that I should be thinking on right now. It was not my decision at all, and I knew that there was nothing else that these people could do, if we did in fact, 'take all of their shit', such as Sabin had said that we were going to do.

If they went back to the government, empty handed none the less, I was fairly certain that we were not going to be the ones that were killing them, as I felt like I should leave it at that. I shivered a bit to my self, as I then sighed quite a bit of a heavy sigh, all at the exact same time too, as I was not all too sure about any of this. I was glad that I was not the leader at all, as I knew that it was far too much stress on me, and I knew that I did not like to have to handle stress, which was a lot of the fact that I was not all too sure as to the fact that I was going to be joining a rebellion, in the very first place any ways, either. I blinked my eyes a few times, as I had my head down to the ground, and I was looking down at the road, that led to out side of the city none the less, where it was that these people came from.

I was sure that they did not get paid all too nicely, and I was sure that they did not get treated all too nicely either, so I was certain as well, that for all that I knew, that these people might in fact be tempted to join us, as I knew that these people would have no where to go, once it was that we were to still their caravan, all at the exact same time too. I nodded a bit to my self, all at once, as I got my focus off of all of that, and I got my focus on just what it was that was going on at the front, as it felt like I might have missed some thing, even though there had been yet to have been a single word that had even been said in the very first place any ways. I blinked my eyes a few times, as I had a bit of a blank look on my face, which I felt was the best look to have right now, as I knew that I really did not want to have to say too much at, right at this very moment in time.

I stared for just a little while longer, as I then all of the sudden, got my focus on the fact that the man who it was that Sabin had just spoken to in the very first place any ways, all of the sudden did not seem to be too happy as to just what it was that Sabin had said in the very first place, none the less, as well. I was a little bit lost by it my self, if I was going to be for real with my self, all at the exact same time too. But I got kept my eyes, and my focus on the man that was in the front for just a little bit longer, as I then all of the sudden, all at once, saw that the man began to open up his mouth, as it was clear that he was about to speak up to Sabin, none the less, though what it was that he was about to say, I was not all too sure if it was good, just due to the fact that he did not have an all too happy look on his face right now, but of course, why would he?

I shook off all of those thoughts how ever, as I heard the voice of some one else, start to speak up all of the sudden, from further behind the man, as I was quite a bit lost as to just what it was that was going on right at this very moment in time. There was a lot that was going on, as I knew that I could say that for a fact. I kind of just wanted to lay down, as my brain felt quite a bit dead right now. This day had been confusing as it was so far, but with all that was going on now, it seemed to be giving me quite a headache, all at the exact same time as well, as I really just wanted to go back home at this point, and I wanted to go and lay down in my bed, and get a good nights rest. Sadly, that clearly was not going to be able to be the case at all for me how ever, as I was around far too many people right now.

I got my focus back on to just what it was that was even going on, right at this very moment in time any ways, which was that fact that a different man, who seemed to be a bit of a younger man, then all of the sudden stepped in front of the other man, as it was clear that he was stepping up to speak for him at the exact same time too, as it was clear that he did not want to older man to make any sort of mistakes, as it was clear that he had taken what it was that Sabin had said about being killed, quite a bit literally, even though I was fairly certain that Sabin was bluffing him self, about it too, right? I was not all too sure, as I felt like I should save that question for another time, as I then began to listen as to just what it was that the younger man had to step up and say in the very first place any ways.

"Adam... Just give them what they want for fucks sake! You know damn well that the government treats us like shit, just like the rest of us..." He said, as I heard quite a bit of some noise come up from behind all of them, as it was clear that they were agreeing with what it was that the other man had said to the older man, who was the leader of the caravan. The older man had a bit of a blank look on his face, as I could tell that he was quite a bit afraid, and it was clear that he really did not have a clue as to just what it was that was even going on right at this very moment in time as well, any ways. It was clear that he was a bit like me, and he was not all too sure as to just what it was that he should do right now, which I did not blame him, as I would feel the same way as he did, if I was in his situation right now.

I knew that he was lost, at least, as far as I had come to figure out from all of this so far, as I felt a bit bad for the poor guy, all at the exact same time as well, as I sighed a bit to my self, doing my best to get my focus off of all of those thoughts, all at once, as I instead got my focus on the thoughts that felt like were a lot more important to me at this very moment in time, which was the fact that I knew that what it was that the younger man had said, was in fact correct, and that the older man clearly was starting to realize that at the exact same time too, as I saw that he had his head quite a bit low to the ground, as I saw that he once again had the same guilty look on his face, that I had seen on his face not all too long ago, all at the exact same time as well.

I blinked my eyes a few times, as I was still not all too sure if this was all too great of an idea, as I knew just what it was that had happened to other rebellions when they had got in to a little bit of a similar situation such as the one that we were in right now. In the end, it was not my call, but I still felt like I could not help but to be a little bit worried about all of it, all at the exact same time as well. I nodded to my self as well, as I too dipped my head a little bit low to the ground, as I just was not all too sure as to just what else it was that I should do right now. I for sure was not stepping in to all of this, as I knew that I did not have the balls for that for one thing, nor did I want to make any sort of stupid moves, or any sort of stupid decisions that might in fact hurt us in the long run.

I stared down at the ground, such as the main guy, the leader of the caravan was doing right now, as it kind of felt like me and that guy had a lot in common, all at the exact same time as well, at least, on the fact as to just what it was that we were doing, right at this very moment in time. I sighed just a bit to my self, as I felt like I really could not help it how ever. I blinked my eyes a few times, as I stared at the road that was below me, such as I had been doing earlier, as all of the voices all of the sudden seemed to start to drown out of my ears, all at the exact same time too, as I really did not want to listen as to just what it was that they had to say right now. I was in my own world right now, and I felt like there was no way out of it either, none the less.

I sighed a bit of a heavy sigh to my self, as I just kept on draining out all of the voices for a little bit longer, that was, until I then heard my name brought up, which made me lift my head up, as I was quite a bit lost with just what it was that was going on right now, and what it was that they wanted me for right now. I blinked my eyes a few times, as I then all of the sudden, lifted my head up, to see what was going on, as I expected all of the eyes to be on me right at this very moment in time. Clearly, not all too much to my own surprise, that was not the case at all, as I was not all too sure as to just why it was that my name had even been said in the very first place any ways, if I was going to be for real with my self, as they were not talking about me at right at this very moment in time clearly.

I then all of the sudden, dipped my head a bit low to the ground once, again, such as I had done earlier, until I then heard my name said again, only this time it seemed to be a bit of a whisper, which had me a little bit freaked out as to just what it was that was even going on right at this very moment in time any ways. I gulped a bit to my self, all at the exact same time as well, as I kind of felt like I was going crazy right now. Some thing was going on right now, and I just was not all too sure as to just what it was that it could be right now. I blinked my eyes, as I then all of the sudden turned my head over to just where it was that I heard the voices coming from, that were saying my name in the very first place any ways.

I looked over at where it was that it had come from, as I then all of the sudden saw just who it was that had said my name. I realized that I was not going crazy, surely, right? These people might not be real at all, so maybe I was... I blinked my eyes a few times, as I then all of the sudden began to realize, all at the exact same time as well, that these people were in fact real. These were the same people that me and Randy had seen a few weeks ago, as they had been staring at us, and they were watching us, as to the fact that we had burnt down our job site. I was quite a bit lost still, as I just was not all too sure about any of it, all at the exact same time too, as I then began to start to question my self, and my sanity, as to how these people knew my name.

I looked at the both of them, a man and a woman, as I tilted my head at them all at the exact same time as well. They seemed to just be staring at me for quite a bit of some time as well, until then, all of the sudden, all at the exact same time too, the man then nodded to me. I was not all too sure as to just what it was that I should do at first, as I did not know these people at all, and they did not seem like they were from here at all. I felt like I did not want to make any sort of mistakes how ever, as I then began to breath in quite a bit heavily to my self, all at the exact same time as well, and I then nodded back to him, as the man then smiled a bit of a strange smile all at the exact same time too, as he then continued to speak to me, and I listened as to just what it was that he even had to say, at the exact same time as well.

"Randolph... We need to speak to you..."
