There was no father nor mother when she came to life.
Just a simple little being that was born from a pond full of lilypads.
The small girl came out of her starting place.
Her whole body drenched with water, strands of hair attached to her face.
She fell when she tried to stand up, seems like she needs practice, so she decided that crawling was the better option.
While crawling along the pond she saw a piece of cloth hanging from a broken branch.
She slowly got closer and upon arriving she bit it, chewing, but then spat it out.
She brought her little hands closer, grabbed the unknown thing that was infront of her and pulled it towards her.

It looked like she found a school uniform. (Ignore the shoes)
She blinked a few times before looking around.
The sky was a pretty orange with a combination of red. There were some people walking and everyone was ignoring the little girl.
They were all wearing something around their bodies, clothes, and they were all standing on two feet.
After observing the other people around she hesitantly put over her head the uniform but... something felt wrong, there was no hole for her other arm, actually, she just put her head where her arm was supposed to be.
After fixing her outfit she missed the feeling of the water against her skin so she just jumped in again.
She looked up at the sky, which was no longer red but it was dark and there were white small dots.
Her body relaxed and closed her eyes before sinking down to the bottom of the pond.
. . . .
The next day she emerged from the waters and found a paper boat floating on top of the water.
She took it in her hands and bit the edges. After letting go a piece of it ripped by how soft the paper had became when it came in contact with the water.
She swallowed the piece of paper, which she had ripped.
She continued to hold the tiny boat in her soaked hands, the boat kept getting more soft that the wind could probably crumple it away.
Just like yesterday she tried to stand on two feet but yet again fell.
She looked to her tight and saw a boy wearing a paper boat on his head, she looked at the soaked boat in her hand and placed it on her head. Her eyes lit up full of joy, which she couldn't explain.
She placed her hands on the ground and was on her knees, she started to crawl towards a tree.
She hugged the tree and slowly got up, her legs were trembling from holding her own weight.
Her grip became tighter, so tight that her nails could just break.
After some time she could stand up on her own and tried to walk/run but fell forward.
She stayed in that position feeling defeated until her stomach growled.
She almost was scared when she heard the growl but understood that it was her.
She couldn't understand why her stomach was making these noises, so she tried to ignore it and kept on trying to atleast take a few steps and falling.
Repeat multiple until she reaches the pond and dives in. Once again she closes her eyes to sleep.
. . . .
It has been the same for 4 days. She learned how to walk without stumbling, after all the hard work she felt satisfied. Every day she found a paper boat, made out of newspaper, in her home and would always wear it on her head.
The little girl, today, was bored. She didn't have anything to do and her stomach kept growling non stop.
She decided to leave her home for the day and started walking.
While walking on the cement she was met with painful little rocks under her feet.
She flinched when feeling the pain, she could even cry in that moment.
She held her left arm and was looking down, with her eyes closed.
She kept walking until the sun had began to set. She bumped into someone... a tall figure.
