As life moves forward so do we, and as we move forward we are forced to leave things behind us. Places... friends... and many things that we hold close to us. This is a story about those things, and how they change us in ways we don't always expect.

There will be references to bullying, depression/mental illness, self harm, being harmed by others, sexual violence, verbal/mental abuse and more. You have been warned! *
