I am lying on the ground. I slowly get up and brush the dirt off my clothes. I look around and realize that I am in a forest. It's dark. I can barely make out the sillouettes of the trees. I look up and see that the leaves block out all sunlight, only a sliver of light coming through a gap in the leaves. The dot of light on the ground seems to be saying something... It sounds like it's calling my name. The voice sounds like my dad! It sounds like he's in pain, calling for a lost love to wake up from their eternal sleep. I didn't hear him like this since mommy... I try to scream to see if he could hear me, but no sound came out my mouth. I bring my head closer to the ground, to hear him clearer. As I put my hands on the leafy floor bed, I feel it's hollow underneath. Desperately I dig in the damp soil, to see if I could find the scource of the voice, or maybe, find a way out to my dad...
