he was taken away from us for a bit; about a month.

it took a while for dan to speak again, no matter how much kate tried involving him in conversation.

i didn't know what to think, i didn't know how to act, i didn't know who to talk to. after the incident i found myself veering into a territory of anxious shaking and wandering eyes, worse than that of before i arrived at this camp.

just when i had begun to feel safe in this setting, the person i was supposed to grow close to snapped into an alternate reality.

the stress of the counseling sessions and new school work wasn't helpful.

so that's why my head grew accustomed to being tucked low, eyes watching for any danger.
