It was an early morning of a day I cannot remember. It has been like this for ages. Night, climb a tree. Sleep. Sun comes up in the morning. Wake up. Climb down the tree. Forage for food while listening to every tiny sound the forest makes to make sure no one is sneaking up behind me. Then later when the sun goes down up a damn tree again.
It is a hard life. Trying not to get killed everyday. Having the same routine day in and day out. Up, down, up, and then down again.
The only people I come across nowadays are dead. Long dead. Dead since before I was born.
I was born from a dead mother. My father cut me out of her womb after she died hoping I would be alive. Lucky for him, I was.
I have been alone since I was five years old. My father was killed because of his foolishness of only deciding to climb up a tree when he saw a person. He quickly pushed me up the tree but before he could climb up. The person killed him.
So there I was. A lonely five year old, with the company of a person and a father that has been torn limb from limb by someone who was once a lovely kind elderly lady, but is now no better than my father's corpse.
I am Sparrow and this is the life I'm stuck with.
