“Who’s to say if any of this really matters?”
George smacked Thomas across the face as soon as the words were out of his mouth.
“Ouch! What was that for?” Thomas whined.
“Because if we give up hope, we die.”
Thomas pointed towards the enemy lines. “If we die, it’s because of them.”
“And if we give up the fight, then we lose not only our own freedom, but the freedom of an entire nation.”
“And my question to you is, what difference does it make?”
George lowered his hand. “Perhaps you’re right.”
Together, George and Tom fled the battlefield.
