So young, so fragile, and so likely to develop emotional issues (anxiety, mood swings, substance misuse, etc.). To this day, I still wonder how Cindy is coping with such an early childhood experience. Shucks, the memories surface in my mind from time-to-time.

He responded, “Well, that must be the one. . . .”
