My father had prepared gifts for me. They'd gotten me a new bike, a paint set, a flute, and a book called Shallow Waters. After breakfast, mother let me go ride my bike. It was light blue, with a beige little woven basket on the front. As I rode down the hill near my home in the country, sailing by the flowing tall grass, feeling the gravel beneath the tires, breathing in the cool air, all as my dress fluttered in the wind behind me. I had grown up in that home, lived there since I was a newborn. When I returned home, there was a car in front of the house.
