Amy's been feeling kind of down lately--a girl she knew, Cordelia Chase, died recently. After I thought about if for awhile, I realized I actually kind of knew Cordelia, too. She helped me out the time the police started randomly attacking kids on the street, and then tried to get into my center and create havoc. She seemed...well, she seemed like a pretty great person, really caring. She didn't have to help me, but she did. And I will always appreciate that.
But Amy went to high school with Cordelia, and said that back then, she was a lot different--kind of the queen of the school, very popular and social and, well..kind of mean, I guess. But, hey--I know better than anyone how time can change you.
Anyway, I want to try to be there for Amy--Cordelia's death hit her kind of hard, even though the two hadn't spoken in ages. I guess sometimes it's the people you used to know that hits you the hardest--those you grew up with. It really drives it home that you could die anytime...I'm thinking I might try taking Amy out for lunch and out shopping--a girl's day. We haven't had one of those in awhile. I know it's not much, but I'd like to try to cheer her some. It's the least I can do, after all she's done for me.
