Bees excitedly knocked at the window as happiness seemed to permeate the room. Flourishing life increased as days became longer, hotter, calmer. This is spring.

A smooth-faced 7 year old with intricing hazelnut galaxies for eyes curiously stared at my frostbit self. She smiled as freshly backed brownies wafted around their just affordable house. This is life.

I was broken from my mind-forged thoughts as I spotted the child skipping her way towards me with crumbs still littered on her face as her so-called mother calling from behind, reminding her to clean after herself.

One day, I was babysitting; the next day, I was being gifted to the same person I was supposed to risk my life for.
