She would spend most of here time up in the tree drawing the wildlife. Here the girl felt whole but she knew well she was the polar opposite, she was broken. How she got to this point was beyond her knowledge yet she knew where it started, him. The worst of it all is the girl had no cognition of who he was to her, no memories no reasoning as to why she feels her chest tightening with anguish at the mere thought of this faceless ghost.
