    Summary

    She appreciated the fact that as the stranger spoke, Greta could feel her voice reverberate in her ribs, mingling with the rise and fall of her breathing and the pulse of her heartbeat. This combination ushered Greta towards a stillness that she had missed, temporarily silencing the painful thoughts. A weight fell across her eyelids and she could feel herself drifting off in the comfort of the stranger’s arms.

    ------
    After Dana is forced to break up with Greta by her parents, Greta is sent into a downward spiral. When she eventually ends up at the emergency department waiting for a mental health assessment, she is left alone for several hours. Only a stranger, in for a dislocated ankle, sits with her to make sure she is okay.

    1 year later, Greta wants to get in touch with the stranger who showed her kindness, leading her to finally meet Carson. Unbeknownst to her, this is also the catalyst she so desperately needs to heal from her past trauma.
