Nice story; it's good to get a look at what haunts people, and how they deal with it - together.

I like how you had Cassandra stumbling over the proper word to think. I like how Tim is slowly healing. This was a nice look into Cassandra's thoughts.

You handled how Cass talks and thinks very well, most people have her studdering like an idiot. The flow of the story is close to perfect, I'd like to see more Tim and Cass from you.
