My world was changing.

Sometimes I wished I could freeze time right now, right at my age, and keep everything right where they are now, always looking forward to the future but never actually getting there. Life in this moment, my peaceful, relatively quiet existence was perfect. Except that it wasn’t. Now that her boyfriend of six years had finally proposed, my older sister was leaving us for her new home in the Froyelles province.

    The year is 1943. Situated in my little corner, I lie in wait, wondering if I will ever be cherished again. Times of long ago come to my mind, when every day, Michelle would come and sit at her little desk and type away.
