I casually walk around in the forest as usual. "No one to bother me" I think to myself. I like being alone. No one to abuse me, no one to call me names and put the blame on me, calling me a miscreant. No one to force things onto me at that. What more could I want? 

The faint sound of guitar can be heard. It's soft, and...calming too. But where is it coming from? No one else lives even remotely near here. Interesting....... My curiosity gets the best of me, and I wander deeper into the forest. There, I see something unbelievable.

Lying there, is a giant. He's wearing loose black shirt, joggers, his hair messy, softly playing a guitar.

I want to keep watching, but I don't. I hide behind a tree so I can listen without getting caught. Apparently, I was too careless, because all of a sudden I feel something wrap around me as I'm lifted to the air. "I didn't know I was being watched" came a voice. I'm released from grasp, and when I look, I'm being held in the air by the giant. My face clearly shows I'm panicked, same with my body language, because the giants face softens and he seems to deflate in a way. "Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you."  I back away slightly, still on his palm. "It's okay.... I was just listening to your music is all" I tell him. "You like my singing?" He asked cautiously.  I nod. "Eminem right? Mockingbird if I'm not mistaken." He nods, face lighting up. "You're a fan too?" He asks. I nod, trying to mask how nervous I am.  He keeps chatting, and I begin to zone out slightly. We keep chatting as time goes on. I left my house at four, and it's currently six. The sky is darkening slightly, and I've wasted two hours of my day here, with him, worrying I won't be able to escape.

"Hey uhh.... It's getting kind of late and I really need to go" I say cautiously. He looks at me saddened. "Really?" He asks. I nod and he sets me down with as little of a warning as he did when he picked me up.

I begin to walk away when he says "will I see you again?" I stop. "Sure" I tell him. I'm almost away when he calls; "wait! What's your name?" I sigh. "It's Akira!" I shout to him, exiting the forest.

Two hours wasted. It felt like I was under lock and key, like he didn't want me to leave. I head inside my house and prepare to take a  nice, cold shower. "This was a weird experience" I say to myself.
