She stood there, speechless. The man running the sale asked, "Interested?"

Emily nodded, unable to speak. She picked up the bear and paid the man. She walked to her car, her mind in chaos. She could not comprehend how her treasured companion had ended up here. She felt adrift in a sea of confusion.
