The ocean breeze kissed Maya's skin as she strolled along the beach, her heart light. She'd just finished painting a mural for the local community center, a project she'd poured her soul into. A feeling of peacefulness washed over her. At a small yard sale near the beach, a stuffed bear sat on a table, its fur slightly matted. Maya's breath hitched.

She picked it up, cradling it in her arms. The familiar weight, the scent of lavender from the old potpourri it had been stored with, everything about it felt so familiar. Maya closed her eyes, and a wave of memories flooded her mind.

She bought the bear, and sat on the beach watching the sunset. She placed the bear beside her and felt a warmth spread through her.
