The girl opened the drawer in the dresser next to her bed, just like she did every morning, reached under the clothes, took out her prized possession, and took a good long look at it. It was worn with age and use, and she was almost obsessively careful with it. She had found it on the beach one day, washed up on the shore. There was no telling how old it was, for such things were now forbidden, but the moment she saw it, it had touched her soul and made her realize how desolate her world really was.
It seemed so simple, but in her world, where love and emotion were things of the past, it gave her the will to go on. Though it was only a representation of love, and not nearly as strong as the real thing, it inspired her.
As her mother called her down to breakfast, the girl sighed, and put the old photograph of the orange-haired girl, about her age, and the tall, dark-haired woman away. She wondered once again if she would ever find the love that the two women from the distant past had obviously shared, and went to start another day.
