Spring peeked through the window one morning like a welcome playmate. The sun finally warmed up the ground, letting the pretty greens and yellows peep through. The birds came back to sing their songs.

But she always came back.
No matter how worried I became.
I just couldn't help but wonder... what would happen to me if she didn't come home?
