Gum Leaf Memory — Unisex 3-End Fleece Sweatshirt in Ringspun Cotton

Australian village. Noon.
The heat was driving everything and everyone to the edge — even the most stubborn creatures had retreated. But after midday, when the light grew kinder and the shadows stretched, nature exhaled.

And that’s when she appeared.

She had lived here once, many years ago — before she left for the city, before the sharp lines of glass and asphalt replaced the dust and birdsong. At first, it felt like even the heat resented her return. But as the sun dipped lower, its rage softened into something like affection.

The butcherbirds and shrikethrushes began to sing again — slowly, as if remembering. She caught sight of an orange butterfly. Vanessa kershawi? Heteronympha merope? A Monarch? There wasn’t time to identify it. And really, did it matter?

Without abandoning her city habits, she brought a bag for the walk — one of the first she ever bought for herself. She never knew why she loved it so much. It had just always felt... right.

On her way back, she passed the old gum tree —
the one where her father used to sit and draw music from its living leaves, never tearing them, only coaxing a tune while they still clung to the branch.
When she was not much taller than the kangaroo grass swaying nearby, those sounds — part whistle, part wind — had filled her with wonder.

And that’s when it came to her.

She laughed — out loud, without restraint — because after all this time, she realized the truth: her bag wasn’t “mint” or “spring rain” like the shopkeepers had claimed.
It was the color of gum leaf.

She had been carrying a piece of home all along.

She leaned on the fence, smiled softly, and you don’t need to ask how she felt.
You already know.
