Chapter 3: Who are you?

My mind was shocked. Could it be that the creature who was just a story was real? She
started to back away almost as if I had frightened her, I got up quickly and smiled genuinely.
“Hello, there. I'm Jiro. What's your name beautiful?” I bowed in order to gain her confidence. She
backed away more, and I walked towards her. “Don’t be afraid, I mean no harm,” I smiled at her
to be more polite so that she doesn’t get scared. She then shook her head and said with the cutest
voice I've ever heard. “Go away! You’re not welcome here!” My eyes widened, and I smiled. “Don’t
fear me, I just want to talk with you.” I sat down in the grass and stared at her. My head was
turning, and I smiled at her. “Come I don’t bite, little one” I put my hand out so that she could
grab it. She stared at me as if she wanted to push me away. She then slowly started to stretch her
hand out and grab it, looking then at my eyes. She then started to walk close and sat down.
“Who are you?” she stared at me with fear. “What are you doing here, human?” She
glared at me, which I found kinda cute, to be honest. I then smiled, “I’m sorry, where are my manners, the name’s Jiro. Nice to meet you” I stared at her with genuine concern. She seemed
not convinced, but she backed off. “What brings you here, human? You shouldn’t be here if you
weren’t looking for something.” she gave me a cold stare, and I thought for a second. What did I
actually come for? I then remembered what the wolf had said and then let out a big sigh. “I wanted to meet you. May I have your name beautiful?” I smiled and waited for her reply. She
then shook her head and said, “I can’t give you my name. You are a human, and I don’t talk to humans. Sorry to ruin your mission, but you must leave” She pointed me out and glared at me with such coldness. This was harder than I thought. She wouldn’t let me stay. I then sighed and
stared at her with a concerned face. “You seem like you want to talk with someone, so just talk to me, darling. I swear I just want to talk with you” She stared at me and then looked away, “you’re very persistent, you know? Fine, I guess you have a point. I’m Ezra.” She then looked back at me
with a smile. My heart beat faster than ever before. I calmed myself down and smiled. “What a
lovely name for someone as lovely as you.” I winked at her, and she just stared at me.
We talked for a while, and she seemed like a calm person. I don’t know why, but I just feel
like I need to be with her, as if destiny brought us together. She stared at me and then asked, “So
do you normally go out into the woods, or is this your first time in the woods?” I thought for a bit
before answering her. I knew I couldn’t tell her that I was sent by my curse and that he was
desperate to be with her. My brain worked on an excuse, and I took a deep breath, looking up at
her. “Yes, I explored the woods, but I tripped over and landed here with you. If I'm being honestbyou have a lovely forest.” I smiled, hoping to have convinced her into believing me, but she just stared at me as if I was nothing. She sighed and then looked up at the sky, “I’m sorry, but I’m afraid you have to go.” I went from smiling to shock. We were having a calm conversation, and now she is kicking me out. This was too cruel from someone as beautiful as her, so I took a deep breath and smiled. “Can’t I stay a little longer? I really want to get to kn-” She then got up and stared coldly at me with her light green eyes. “I said leave!” She pointed me out, and I sighed deeply, but i wanted to stay longer. “ Fine, but I will come back tomorrow again, and I won't accept a no for an answer” She glared, and then a tree branch wrapped around my foot and started to pull me away. “Bye Bye,” she smiled and then walked away as I dragged out of her home.
I fell to the floor and then glared back at the place where I came from. “What a woman.” I grinned and then got up. I let out a chuckle and turned around, “I will come back.” With that, I walked back to the for an answer” She glared and then a tree branch wrapped around my foot and started to pull me
away. “Bye Bye,” she smiled and then walked away as I dragged out of her home.
I fell to the floor and then glared back at the place where I came from. “What a woman.” I grinned and then got up. I let out a chuckle and turned around, “I will come back.” With that, I walked back to the village.
