Living in the in the top left of my host, I beat 4,800 times every hour and 115,200 times a day. I believe that I am the most important organ in the body, however the brain disagrees with me. I tell him to live without me for a day and see what happens, but he usually says the same thing to me in return. I have four chambers to help me pump blood throughout the body.

Sometimes I pain or ache though. I am nervous because my host does not eat the healthiest foods. I try to tell him to healthy foods like fish, fruits, and vegetables. Instead he eats a lot of pizza, french fries, and doughnuts. It doesn’t help me especially because he exercises quite often, so I cannot do what I am supposed to do to the best of my ability, that fears me the most. He is now really happy. But the worst pains came from the past, when he liked someone, but they did not like him. That was probably my biggest pain.

I help my host make decisions sometimes. The brain scrutinizes me sometimes because my decisions are sometimes “irrational.” There’s nothing I can do, sometimes I can’t help it. For example, my host had a girlfriend who moved to California, and said he couldn't go because of his finances. I could not let that happen though, and told him to follow her.

As I age older and older, my beat slows down, I’m at over 3 billion beats and eventually I stop.
