O.K.

"I'm going to be okay, right?"

I don't know how many times I've asked him this.

"Everything is going to be fine," he says. He always says the same thing. And every time it sounds like a different answer.

"I won't be the last person in the race," I say confidently, as if I care. I just want to finish.

"I'm not talking about the race," he says.

Different answer, once again.
