Her soul, which has been deeply scarred by the war, has begun to heal. She continues to move forward in life, helping others in need, while keeping the words of the first person who ever said ‘I love you to her close to her heart. When she takes on a job to write a letter for a terminally-ill boy, time starts to move forward.”
