Trap: The Unknown

Chapter 4

I placed the broken piece of glass back to the box and i sat down on my bed wondering what to do next. I stood up with my bare foot touching the cold wooden floor and started walking towards the window. I reached out my arms to feel the warmth of the Sun and my eyes looking at the massive tree on top of the hill. I stretched my arms longer to reach the lock of the window attempting to unlock it and go outside. I couldn't find any courage and once again, i dissapoint myself.

I sat on the chair and grab a random old and dusty book from the box and started reading. "Tangled" the book cover says. Its about a girl with an unimaginably long blonde hair who was stuck in a tower and has never come out of it. Her mother always remind her to never go down and come out of the tower because its too dangerous. "She reminds me of myself" i thought. This girl named Rapunzel is just like me, she's stuck inside her tower and Im stuck in my room. But the difference is, she had a friend with her called Pascal which is a chameleon but I don't have anyone.

I wonder if the outside world from Tangled is the same as my outside world. Is it dangerous out there? Is that why im scared to go out? These thoughts are making me even more confuse than i was before.

As I kept on reading, there's a robber named Flynn Rider who happens to find Rapunzel's tower since he was running away from the furious guards that kept on chasing him to retrieve the Royal crown he has stolen. And there, he met the strange Rapunzel. Rapunzel, as curious as I was, asked Flynn to take her to the "floating lights" that happens every night on her birthday, in exchange for the crown she hid.

I wonder to myself what is night? I know birthday but im not sure when is mine. I've seen the word "night" few times before from the old books i read and saw a picture of it too. It appears to be a dark sky filled with tiny white dots called "stars". I've never seen night time before in reality, im not even sure if it exist. All I know is that its the opposite of day time.

These books help me understand new words and im learning new things each time i read them and i feel glad about it. But im not sure if some of these things happens in my world or if it exists or if its just fictional....
