Couldn't think of any but one.
Slowly, he turned halfway to look down at her, sticking his hands into his pockets as he watched her. "Did you find what you were looking for?"
Alexa took a deep calming breath and honestly answered, "
Not yet, but I think I could be on the right track. I am back... that's a start. I have my friends, that's good... I thought I could find myself in there, but I kind of got lost again, ya know." She busied herself with picking at a hole in the leg of her jeans instead of looking at him when she asked her question.
"
Would you help me?" she asked in a tiny voice, "
Help me remember who I was before all this happened."
