And They Call Her
There is a girl who lives alone in the woods, yet she is watched by a village, and they take care of her. They call her Wild Girl and sometimes they laugh. They call her crazy.
Hinata watched her for days. Every day, all day and night the girl would draw on the walls of her house. And if in the morning she realized she had made a mistake in the dark she would scratch it out and start again. The inside of her house is full of beautiful pictures and people, covering every inch of the surface. While Hinata watched her she drew on the outside. People come from the village every day with food for her; sometimes they stay and watch, one woman even combs her hair. And all the while the girl just keeps going and never stops. She works feverishly; she seems almost afraid to stop.
Hinata wonders, what happens when the walls are all covered?
