Forever Lost
Her most prized possession, what she cared for more than anything she had ever owned, more than her own person, was forever lost.
All that ever mattered to her was that small trinket, given to her by her dad, with the words, "Treasure it always."
She had been so young when he died, and that keepsake was all she had to remember him by.
Of course, she knew that it was all imagined, that her Dad was still alive, but the fantasy was more important than reality. She wanted this other life, and so she would keep looking for it.
