In the dream, I had moved with mom and dad to a development, a place where the traffic circles had trees and plantings, and the houses went up to the edge of the semi-razed forest. It was just like the place we moved two years later, and that was when I remembered what had happened afterwards.

          One day I had no friends, so I was imagining if they were with me and they told me to step off the curb and across the possible boundary, into the field.
