Hi Dora! First, welcome to Reedsy!Great job here with your first submission... and I must say I relate to getting stuck up in trees as a child, haha.I loved the lines "“these memories are not yours, dear,” "As if my memories could somehow belong to someone else." and "“Those memories aren’t hers.” "My favourite line was The evening became dusk, and our versions of events filled up the space between us."Thanks for sharing & good luck in the contest - I saw your story has made it onto the recommended list!
