Summary
The long-haired girl punches in a number on the rotary dial, taking deep breaths with every digit. She raises the phone to her ear...
She pauses for a moment. Her shoes shuffle in the dirt. Then I see her eyes light up. “Hi,” she breathes.
And just like that, the telephone of the tree is no longer just for neighbors.
The telephone in Ayla's tree has always been a strange one.
People who live in her neighborhood come and use it to call their loved ones, loved ones who they can't see or hear or be with anymore. Ayla doesn't want to think about what that means for her, and for her own friend-- Kiri-- who went away.But one day, strangers begin coming to the tree, and something amazing happens.
