Chapter 7: The Palindrome known as an Epilogue

Max spent the next 7 years in jail for a crime he didn’t commit with no way to prove it. He had a hard time adapting to his new body, but over time he grew used to it. His new body was new and fresh, and he grew accustomed to his better eyesight and heightened senses. The new world was also particularly tough for Max to comprehend. It was futuristic, in a way Max never would have comprehended possible. Nonetheless, he was happy, knowing this was the true world. He relished in the idea that his life now had meaning, and everything he had done was worth it to get to this moment.  3 years, 2 months, and 2 days into his sentence, Max was let out of jail on parole for good behavior. He found it difficult to get a job and start his new life, but he sufficed nonetheless. He said hi to his neighbors, made friends at his job, he even got a pet dog, even if it was a robot. He was a changed man, a man with purpose, and if it wasn’t for the stranger, he never would’ve realized his full potential. In that way, he thanked him. He thanked him for guiding Max to the light at the end of the tunnel, and the eternal sacrifice he gave. In his honor, the first thing Max did when he got out of prison to his new home was make a grilled cheese sandwich.
