CHAPTER 3

it took me long enough to continue my story... this chapter was renewed twice cause i wasn't satisfied with the first plot so i changed it.. so here is the third segment of the story.




Every day and night, I was tormented by my own persona. I avoided looking at my own reflection. I was just lonely and that’s all there is to it. I walked further but still there was no valley or any large land bodies in sight.

Was I being tricked like what I seen in the water just a mere illusion? I was about to give up until I saw something so far and so beautiful. Was that a mountain?

I ran toward it as fast I could. And the thing seems to get closer and bigger. No tree or vines or animals stepped in the way of my running. I was too excited to think if that really was the so called valley. Even though the night was near I was still running as fast as the day I wanted my freedom. I was getting even closer but that thing seems to be getting even more enormous. Is this what I’ll need to cross to get to the village?

I stopped for a while a prepare myself to climb that “mountain”. If I go around it, it might take forever to get to the other side. I couldn’t see the end of the mountain. I just spoiled my excitement

The night has come. I also prepared my camp and my fire. I was too exhausted from that excitement. I really thought that I was really a pinky close. But the thought of meeting my kind sort of excites me, how should I introduce myself to them? “Nice to meet you, I’m …” I forgot I don’t have an identity.

I couldn’t sleep I just stared at the dancing fire in front of me. I thought of a name for myself. What name should I give myself? But I don’t what sort of name my kind uses. Maybe I’ll just use the name I heard. I was smiling to myself and I felt the drowsiness already so I guess it’s time to sleep. I’ll prepare my stuff to tomorrow also for the hiking.
