Losing track of time, 11-year-old girl named Anne was walking in the middle of the pathway where there were trees with interlocking finger-like branches on both sides. After walking which seemed like for hours, Anne came to a clearing where she could see the scorching sun lighting up the world like a candle in the dark. In the distance, she could see a lonely tree with skeleton-bare branches fighting the roaring wind to steady itself. The sound of the snapping branches

filled the cold winter breeze. The worn-out tree looked as though it was waiting for the spring's beating heart.
