The bright white light against the guest room curtains was more than enough to make me miss the forest.
Tall trees surrounded the cabin, shielding most natural light.
I would visit a small market every now and then.
It was driving distance from the cabin, but I could only go when papa permitted so. I didn't have many friends, just two.
One being the old lady that worked the counter at the market and a boy I met there.
//flash back//
'come on, come on. Almost got it.' I cheered myself on as I reached for the tub that was far beyond my reach.
"Need some help?" A voice asked. I took a few steps back and allowed him to grab it with much ease.
"Here ya go." He smiled at me.
His dark green eyes were mesmerizing."Ben and Jerry's Chunky Monkey huh? Whats the occasion?" He asked with a smile.
"...its my birthday." I blushed.
"Well happy birthday, pretty stranger."

I never got to say goodbye to him. I never got to thank Ashton for being my first love.
