-I won't hurt you, don't worry. How is your leg?- he stoped, asked, and smiled gently.
-I think it's okay.- I was still scared, but I tried to look chill.
-Can you walk? I want to show you around. There is alot things to talk about.
-What do you mean?
-You'll see. Come on now, let's get up.
He came closer slowly, held out his hand and nodded. I don't know why but something tells me to trust him. I grabbed his hand and tried to get up.
-Does it hurt?
-Yeah, but I think I can handle it.
-When you get tired, tell me and we are going back.
I nodded and stood up holding his hand. He moved the cloth pretending to be a door aside, and I thought I was dreaming. I stoped walking and looked around. A huge wall surrounded the whole...field? It was big place. A huge place covered with grass, huts and saplings. People are scattered all around, everyone is focused on what they are doing.
-Is everything okay?-brown haired boy asked me.
-What is all of this?
-Alby can explain it all. Here he comes.
-So youre new greenie?- big black man asked.
-Greenie?-I asked confused.
-That's how we will call you until you remember your name.
-Oh, okay.
-Now, let's look around.
During the long walk he showed me around. Everything seems so unreal. Why am I here, and why don't I remember anything? When he showed me. it was getting dark when we finished the tour. I still don't know anything.
-Who will explain me why am I here?- I was getting nervous and mad.
-Trust me, we don't get it neither. But I can tell you that until we work together we are good.-Alby tried to cheer me up.
-So what? Why are we here?
-Nobody knows. We are trying to figure it.
-For how long?
-Three years.
-And still nothing?
-It's way more complicated than you think. As time passing you will get it. Everything I tell you now will just confuse you more.
-I wanna know something. Anything. About this place, people here, and why am I only girl here?
-Well, every month they send us new greenie and supplies. This month, it's you. Last month it was Thomas, the guy you were with when I came to you.-he pointed into brown haired guy.- I was first. All alone. I was so confused, but with time I realised we have to work together, or we won't survive. Everybody who came up here were boys, until now. You're first girl here. It's weird, and all of us are worried.
-For how long are you here?
-Three years.
-And you never came out? Not even tried?
-Of course we tried. Everything you can imagine, trust me, we tried.
-So you say we won't get out of here? Like never?
-I hope we will get out. Out of this walls is maze. We are trying to find way out.
-Who is doing that? I guess it's huge maze, how do they remember every way?
-We have our runners. They are exploring maze and trying to find way out. You see those people right behind fire? They are runners. The one in the middle, Minho, is the leader. He knows every part of the maze.
-Who are rest of them? I want to know them.
-Let's go then.-he got up from the stump that was next to the fire, gave me his hand to get up and led me to meet the others.-This is Thomas, you already met.
-It was nice to meet you, greenie.-he looked me right into my eyes and smiled soft. I tried to keep eye contact but I couldn't, so I looked down.
-This is Minho, the runner.
-Oh, hey, I've heard we got new greenie. It's nice to meet you.- Minho grabbed my hand and shaked it, with friendly smile.
-It's nice to meet you too, Minho, I've heard alot of nice things about you.
-We have Ben, he is also runner. There is Fry, he cooks here. This is Chuck, the youngest here. He came here before Thomas.
