"What's your name?" That was the first time the little girl spoke to me, her voice tender yet melodious.
"Justin Davis..."
I felt a pang of sadness in my heart, having been alone in the woods for so long, and just as I had found a companion, she was about to leave, leaving me by myself once again.
"You've touched and seen my body, so when you grow up, you have to marry me," she said next, leaving me frozen in place, my young heart nearly leaping out of my chest...
The little girl walked away, glancing back at me every few steps, but even as their figures vanished, I never learned her name.
I don't know if that girl and her parents ever came back to see me, because three days after they left, I packed up the gear they had left behind and walked out of the forest, venturing into the city to make my own way.
I've always wanted to go back to that little cabin, just to see it one more time, but it's filled with too many memories of my parents.
