The last place Ryan Walsh should be this afternoon is on a
train heading to Wrigley Field. She should be in class,
enduring yet another miserable day of her first year of high
school. But for once, Ryan isn't thinking about what she
should be doing. She's not worried about her lack of
friends, or her suffering math grade, or how it's been five
whole years since the last time she was really and truly
happy. Because she's finally returning to the place that her
father loved, where the two of them spent so many afternoons
cheering on their team. And on this -- the fifth anniversary
of his death -- it feels like there's nowhere else in the
world she should be. Ryan is once again filled with hope as she makes her way to
the game. Good luck is often hard to come by at a place like
Wrigley Field, but it's on this day that she meets Nick, the
new kid from her school, who seems to love the Cubs nearly
as much as she does. But Nick carries with him a secret that
makes Ryan wonder if anyone can ever really escape their
past, or believe in the promise of those reassuring words:
"Wait till next year." Is it too much for Ryan to hope that
this year, this season, might be her comeback season?
