The sun rose as usual and woke me up with its kindest touch. I woke up from my bed and get dressed up, then walk to the hall where Mrs.Rosy has already decorated the table with breakfast.
I am here since five years. Mrs.Rosy found me on cold ice ground shivering so she brought me her home. When I became conscious I was not able to remember anything. Since then I am living with Mrs.Rosy. It was her kindness that she let me stay here for 5 years with care.
I am Isabelle. I know my name because Mrs.Rosy informed me about my name. She knows my name maybe because 'Isabelle' was written on my hand and she considered it as my name.
The most curious thing is that when I was found there was no one around except icebergs and snow. One question that always arises in my mind is that, it has been five years, did no one tried to find me?
In these years I did made some friends as I started to go to college. I don't know if I had already completed my college or not but Mrs.Rosy thought it would be a good way of making friends and to have some fun till I don't remember something.
Mrs.Rosy have one daughter who is out for her studies so I live alone with her.
Anyways, as I am getting late for college and I did not yet finished my breakfast so unfortunately I'll have to leave it in between and RUN! I guess I am already too late.

There in college everyone is planning for a picnic as summer holidays are about to start.
Most of the people suggested to go to 'The Flower Land'. That's the place where I was found, I don't know the particular spot because its way too big. I never visited that place but one thing I know is that place is extremely beautiful and is filled with plenty of flowers during summers. During winters it gets covered with ice.
I look around to find my friends. I have three friends and there I see one coming.

"Hey Isabelle, you are going to come right? You should, it's going to be fun" Gina says, with thundering excitement. She's one of my friends and she's always excited regardless of any situation.
"Gina calm down, I'll come." I have to calm her down, always. "Anyways when are we going?" I ask.
"What do you mean by 'when'! We are going tomorrow morning. I am so excited. People say that there is no place on earth as beautiful as flower land and its also very relaxing." Gina reply.
"Oh good! Anyways, Where are Amy and Racheal? I can't find them since morning."
Amy and Racheal are the other two friends of mine.
"They didn't attend the college today, they are packing up their things for tomorrow"
"For tomorrow! for one morning they need a whole day for packing!" I say.
"Seriously! this is too much." She says, raising both the eyebrows. "Anyhow any plans for tomorrow?"
" Well I guess tomorrow we are going on a picnic that itself is a plan. What more plans shall I have?" I reply being confused a little.
" Well I was asking about food"
She loves food, and we both love ice cream.
As soon as she completed her sentence or maybe before that without any hesitation I reply " Ice cream goes first"
"Yup!"
After college I went back to home, I had my lunch and I informed Mrs.Rosy about the picnic. She allowed me, of course she would but I don't know why she was not actually willing to let me go.
Anyways she permitted and didn't mentioned anything about it so I would also like to let go of it.

Now I shall pack my bag. 'What shall I keep?' is the biggest question. I decide to keep a diary and a pen, some dollars and what else shall I keep for food? Cupcakes? Everyone is going bring something, of course, that should work...I guess.
After packing my bag the day is as usual like every normal day. A little bit of studying, dinner, chatting(only a bit), and the day comes to an end. There is an unusual feeling in my heart and mind. Maybe it is the feeling of joy or excitement, maybe. I am totally calm and happy I don't know why. There should be reason for being happy but I am just simply happy. It cannot be because, I am going on a picnic. Every year we plan a picnic, this is not my very first time.
Still some different feeling is making my heart beat faster.
It is bed time so I switchoff the lights and jump on my bed for a good night sleep.
Gradually, I fell asleep.
