Hailey looked at him, thinking about it, how to answer. What to say. In a way she felt very disturbed by the thought of not having her thoughts to herself - who knew, maybe he knew more than he said he did. Maybe he lied to her? She tried not to think of it in that way, since all it did was to scare her. She reminded herself that all he had done up to this point had been nice and caring, not at all to take advantage of her. She tried to push those thoughts away as she thought about an answer. She hadn't thought that much about the past at all - she was rather here and now. She had enough trouble trying to live in the present, and partly in the future, as well.
After a few minutes of thinking, she finally spoke. "It's been... a while", she said, trying not to get emotional about it, as she thought of how it had been at first. "I think it started pretty early", she said, not feeling like going any further at that point. "Pretty sure I was still a child", she added. She looked even more thoughtful as she thought about his other question. "Honestly, I'm not sure of what I see", she said, feeling slightly embarrassed about how little she knew about it all. "Sometimes I see myself as a child though... things I don't remember... glimpses", she said and bit her lip. "Scary things, most of the time. I've probably blocked them out... if it wasn't because of the fact that I'm younger then, I'd assume it was - is - the future", she said, shrugging.
