I got my breakfast and sat at the kitchen table. I stared out the garden window, wondering how big it was. Although, it was probably endless, considering that there was a huge line of trees that reached about 20 ft above the ground. Almost scary to look at, but at the same time beautiful as they swayed in the wind.
I cleared up my dishes and ran back upstairs to have a shower. The shower was so much better than the one back home, I felt so fresh! I got dressed and dried my hair then ran to my bedroom window to get a closer look at the forest. And it was a forest, huge, enormous, biggest I’d ever seen up close and in my back garden. I wanted to see what it was like. That’s what I would do today, I would go search the forest in my back garden. It didn’t sound so exciting when I thought about it but I was just screaming for something to keep me occupied.
I grabbed my jacket and ran out the back door. Wow…it was bigger when you were up close. Pretty cool looking, almost eerie which gave it the creepy touch.
I walked towards it, eager to see what lurked in there! I gently pulled back branches that parked there selves in my way and stumbled through the bushes. I eventually reached a small path, very narrow although I could definitely find my way through it from there on. I was excited. I had nothing better to do. I walked down the narrow path until the light began to fade. Eventually darkness surrounded me. I was now scared.
I turned to try to see down the path. But I slipped and fell into a bush. I was so stupid. Only I could do something so idiotically. I got up and planned to go the way I came but I had forgotten which way I came. There was 4 long paths surrounding me and each looked nearly identical. It then hit me. I was lost.
I was shaking so cold I could hardly move. My hands were numb with the cold. I searched my pockets for some sign that I was going to be alright, but I failed. I lay on the cold soiled earth hoping that I was dreaming…hoping it was all some crazy nightmare. I closed my eyes and opened them again swiftly. I didn’t think it was a dream. It didn’t seem like it.
How could I be so foolish. I just realised I was in the centre of a crossroad. Shouldn’t there be a sign? Ugh! I am so, so, stupid! I searched my pockets again and found my phone! YES! I was safe! I flicked open my phone and rummaged through my contacts till I reached my mums number.
I dialled the number and waited for my mum to pick up. All of a sudden I heard a beep. I couldn’t believe it, my phone battery just died! What was I going to do? I was going to die…wasn’t I.
I lay down and began to cry. Hoping that I could think of something. But it must have been late and I was tired. I drifted off into a calm sleep.
To be continued....
(Everyone! Sorry its so long...lol. I guess I go overboard when I write! :P)
