I should have died, I should have disappeared from this world. This world that does not have anything else to offer for a man like me.
But yet the ways of this world decided to save me, but for naught? What else is there?
*Flashbacks of falling to my death*
"Aaaaah!!"
I shouted as I got up panting, trying to catch my breath. I then looked around and found myself in a wooden cabin, sitting in a clanky bed. And saw outside that the sun is up.
I also found that the fireplace had just ran out of firewood then I found myself topless, even worse, I do not have anything underneath as well.
As I looked around more, I saw my clothes hanging on a line attached to the pillars by the roof of the place. And as I try to get up, something suddenly moved beside me. Uhm.. on the bed..
"*yawwwning* Good morning.."I heard a light calming voice of a young girl beside me.
I looked and while I was turning she is already up rubbing her eyes while stretching. I then saw two heavenly shapes in front of me.
And with that, all I could is...
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!!"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!!"
If you were outside the wooden cabin, you'd hear the voices of 2 young people inside as if they saw a scary ghost, and as for the girl, imagine that a wine glass is about to break. That kind of scream..
"What the freak!! Ano ginagawa ko dito?!!" I panickly said as I stood up "Ano ginagawa mo sa tabi ko?!!" I followed..
"Ikaw, wala ka na talaga sa pag iisip hano?!! Tumalon sa mataas na tulay?!! Swerte ka at nahanap---"
She also got up and covered up and was panicked as well as she spoke. And as she looked towards me, she suddenly stopped.
Then she had this look on her face surprised, impressed and scared at the same time.
As the gears turn in my head, I finally figured out that--
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!" I still do not have anything on me.
And from this, just imagine a swan flying on a sunny and wonderful day.

*After the nonsense that has transpired.*
I finally got my clothes back on, and as I was getting dressed in the room, I took a peak outside the door and the girl is making tea for us both.
I took a thought and decided to talk to her.
I then got out of the room and went towards the living room where her dining table is. I don't know what to call it since it was just a small table. And the cabin is just a small one enough to accomodate both of us.
"Hey," she called out to me. "Ok ka na ba?" She followed.
And hindi pa din ako maka get over sa boses nya.
"Uh, yes, I'm fine na."
And yes, sa nakikita nyo sa akin "Leon Transkvic" walang ka expe-experience sa mga babae kahit makipag usap man lang.
"Uh sorry, ano ba talaga nangyari? And how did you find me last night?"
I wanted to thank her, but those words bursted out of my mouth.
"Ah, last night kasi, habang nag luluto ako, may narinig akong tao na humihiyaw sa labas." She replied.
"Lumabas ako agad baka kako--" she stopped midway and napailing na lang sya. "Lumabas ako agad para tignan kung sino un." She followed.
