To make her feel not so alone. Walking through the memories of better days, ones with more hope... Angela's emotions were clear on her face but she thinks she masks it well. ]
You worry yourself on things long buried. Even now, there is still some life to this place. Albeit... growing much slower than previously. Set-backs.
