Flowers Only Bloom in the Spring

Apathy and loneliness were the only real emotions that Helena could recognize since her 12th birthday. They brought her comfort because it was something she understood. It was easy to become the loner when her father's job made them travel from place to place and country to country. It was easier to accept that excuse rather than facing the harsh realities of the dark past she tried to forget. It was easier to run away and not get close to anyone ever again. After their latest move to a new country, Helena must start all over again. New home, new town, new school and perhaps this time new friends. When things don't seem any different, someone finds their way into Helena's tiny, isolated world and begins to help her to tear down her walls and maybe, just like the flowers in Spring, love and hope can bloom for her.
