Mindy shrugged. "Hey, you don't get to pick and choose how you grow, like, ever. What's the point in crying over something you won't get back? You take what you can get, and hope for the best. You have to live. That's about all you can do, besides putting your hands over your ears and pretending everything is ok."

She nodded. "I plan to. It was nice talking to you Tim. You see like a nice man. Who knows? We might cross paths again sometime."
