So Close, And So They Begin, (An Excerpt) . Content Warning.
He heard the sound, the loud, pained moan. He stopped scraping the tree bark he was collecting. "Hello?" He called. "S-someone there?" He heard another soft groan. He started walking in the direction. As he got closer, the groans turned to whimpers. They came into clear view of each other. He tucked his book into his pocket, and crouched down, meeting the wounded deer in the bear trap at eye level. "Looks like you got yourself into a bit of a pickle." He scooted himself a little closer. The doe didn't move. "That looks like it hurts pretty badly." She let out a little whimper. "I can help you with that."

Head Above Water
From the moment I first saw her, I never knew how much she'd have an impact on my life after everything I had been through. I had come so far away from the west coast of LA to east coast of South Carolina to escape from the toxic family I had grown up with. I never thought after being in college for 5 years this is what it truly feels like to start over again with no one even knowing who you are.
