— And you’ve always wanted to know whether she was a dream, a vision, or just an ordinary girl under a tree. — Yes, but she was not ordinary. That’s just it. Years later I thought, she didn’t have to be a spirit, a fairy, anything like that. She didn’t have to be from another world, to fill mine with magic. I’d never seen anyone, anything, like her. A beautiful girl under a hawthorn, that’s enough of a wonder, isn’t it?
