Franz and Emma were sitting in quiet, reminiscing of their ordeals. They both had different hardships, now they had to accept, evaluate and find a way to go on.

Emma and Franz were sitting in silence embracing the moment. They both needed love, kindness and acceptance, but also someone to love, to share good and trying times. They both have been scarred from their suffering and grief, the nature of their traumatic experience were not nearly the same, the nature of the source was different.

Dusk. The tall trees along the trail cast shadows on the the path leading to the house. Emma leaned over Franz, checked his pulse, it was weak, he had been wounded, blood was seeping from the cuts, his face was covered with dirt. Emma ran to the house for some water. It turned darker by the minute. She rushed back, could hardly see his wounds, Emma started to tremble as she started to wash his face. Emma’s life had been filled…..
