short cut

I tried to go to the movies today (line was too long.) As I got close to the short cut street, I remembered telling Chris about the short cut. We had gone to this theater many times, and then I found out about a short cut from Dad. The first time that Chris and I went after that was last June, and Chris was driving, so I told him which streets to turn on. He was so excited when we got there! He just loved that short cut! We used it a couple more times in June and July, and it never failed to excite him. I just can't match that Chris, so excited about something so small, and the Chris who thought that life didn't hold any joy for him. I wish he could have focused on the joy.
