"I can't take it!" Ash shouted up into the tree. She looked down at the basket and nudged it with her foot. "I can't take it." she muttered to herself. "I can't take it, I can't take it, I can't take it..." she slid down, her back against the tree and ran a hand through her hair. Ash glared at the basket sitting next to her. "I can't take you. I won't take you. I don't need you, I don't need you. I don't need you!" Her elbows rested on knees. "I don't need anyone." She murmured, sounding exhausted. Her head dropped into her hands.
