Hiati

Chapter 2

I stand up the room blurring,the pain in my leg is unbelivable its nearly as sore as my heart. I have to go, now I have no choice. Its pitch black outside and chilly. I didn't think to grab anything, im stumbling around in my grubby white night gown holding a knife in my fist. I moved out of out small house uncertainty my leg refusing to work. I was still crying in long dry sobs of pure emotion. What would I do without papa.  I couldn't see much even though the moon is full and bright. I stutter down the cobbled path to the gate and out into the street. Silence. Its about eleven and there's no noise, no rusles of leaves as the wind blows by, no shouts or murmers of people, nothing. I shudder. I walk up the street towards the forest of pines. I want to get lost, I want to find my wings and soar. The trip to the forest is only two streets but oh how my leg aches and burns. It feels liked he injected pure fire into my leg.  Why didn't he kill me instead of papa but more importantly, why did he come? How did papa know ? Who is he!!!! I have to push aside thoae questions for now,  mulling over them wont solve this mess that im in. I had reached the forest. I ran well hopped through the dense trees to the stream.  Its about a kilometre deep into the woods located in a clearing where the trees thin letting light escape into the darkness of the forest.  I have been in the woods once before,  me and papa went to the stream for a picnic.  I was young then but i remember laughing and getting my dress soaked. Im still young now,  i just feel so different, its crazy how your life can change in just a hour.  Im here at the stream. I stumble over to the water and splash water onto my face.  So cold.  I shiver.  I then drop the knife into the water and watch the blood float up and doen the stream like red ribbons.  I stare transfixed. I pick up the knife and stare.  Before i can stop myself i drive it into the ground forcefully.
