I'll never forget her, and I'm still mourning, but I'm still alive. I need to keep going.

The retreat to the mountains did me a lot of good. The fresh air. The connection to nature all around me. I had a lot of time to think about my future. About where to go next.

I've come to the conclusion that I can not remain alone if I want to do something about Mina's death. I've talked with John about this and he's going to help me as much as he can. He's got resources and, if they become necessary, he'll bring them into play.

I can't say more than that, but I can say that Takeshi won't get away with what he did.

It's funny. The last time I saw him, he wept. His performance was brilliant. He had almost everyone convinced that he was really broken up about her death. I knew better. I'll never believe a word that comes out of his lying mouth. He puts on a good act, but he'll never fool me.

Anyway, school starts this morning, so I've got to get a move on. Just wanted to record something here so I'll have it down if I ever need to look back on it.

This is a good, but sad, day to live!

Lucky
