"I don't think so we can actually find an ice cream shop here"  Gina says.
"You are actually right. Now what shall we do?" I ask.
"What would you say if I tell you to drink ice cream instead of eating it or licking it?" Gina questions me.
"Drink! Well if its cold enough, maybe I can drink. I mean of course its taste won't change...eh...Don't tell me you brought ice cream here!" I reply. I know she brought ice cream. But why? Don't tell me she likes to drink ice cream, I guess... she does.
"Actually yes, I did brought ice cream, I had no idea that the ice cream would melt, seriously " She replies. She is totally joking!
"Really, you know, I think that the ice cream would be as cold as ice even in 54 degree celsius!" I taunt.
"You are taunting me" she says. OF COURSE.
"Maybe"
"Fine! I like to drink ice cream. I think it tastes more tastier if we drink it"
"Then what are you waiting for! Bring the glasses" I reply.
She gives me a stick of ice cream which is packed in a box. I open the box and the whole ice cream is liquid. I have to drink it.
"Go on!" She says.
I smile. I start to drink. I can't believe I am actually doing it.

I guess it really does tastes more better...maybe.
My eyes moves towards my right and I see Amy and Racheal.
Oh no! Amy and Racheal are coming towards us. I guess they saw us drinking.
Of course we are not drinking in glasses, we are drinking from the box itself, not from the same box but from different boxes.
" What are you people drinking? Is it ice cream? oh gosh! Are you guys alright?" Racheal asks.  I can tell from her expressions that she is very shocked, as expected.
" You want to try?" I ask.
" No thanks!" Racheal replies.
"I would love to try!" Amy says.
"Really!" Racheal says, being extremely shocked.
"You should also try it!" Amy replies.
"Racheal, you should!" Gina says..
"Racheal you can do it!" I say, just to give her some courage. Racheal is a sophisticated type of a girl who doesn't like even a small dot of dirt. She is totally hygienic.
"No, sorry" Racheal replies.
"Oh come on, try it please" Gina says.
Amy was busy drinking ice cream.
"Try it." I say
"Eh... maybe, ok I'll give it a try on your insists. " Racheal says. Finally she did agreed!

Oh god! What are we doing? Drinking ice cream! Seriously !

"Let's see who runs faster!" Racheal says. She is an athlete! She runs way faster than any of us.
I am not a fast runner, but I love to run, not always of course but on some occasions I do want to run. Today I want to run maybe because I can see those endless roads and can hear them calling my name.
I want to feel the winds pass through my soul, meet the friendly roads which will lead me to a different place, with all my strength I want to run as fast as I could, if I lose this chance today, I'll not get it again.
Amy is going to inform our guide that we are about go a bit far. What can a guide reply? Like all other guides he replied "Don't go too far and return before the lunch". Nothing new.

"Are you ready?"  Kate asks. She is one of my casual friends, like a friendly classmate.
"Yes!" we all together shout.
"GO!" she shouts and whistles.
With the sound of her whistle we all start to run.
I started running with my full energy. My breathing rate and pulse rate started to increase. My heart was beating faster. I am getting the same strange feeling again.
Am I near to the place where I was found? I guess or is it just my assumption? It must be my assumption, my memory was lost five years ago and I still don't remember anything and all of a sudden how can I just remember something, it surely is an assumption.
We stopped as we have reached a bit too far than we were supposed to.

But I want to go a bit more farther.
"Gina! I want to go a little bit more farther." I say.
" I know, but we are not allowed to go. What if we get lost!".
"Lost! No, we are not tiny kids!"
"I know, but we are not allowed and it would be slightly more better if we follow the rules." Racheal says.
"Can I go alone? You guys carry on and keep it a secret ok" I reply.
" Then I'm coming with you no matter what!"Gina says.
"Gina I'll be back in no time, just for a while, please" I insisted her.
"Be back soon".
"Surely" I reply.
They are going back and I am going a bit further.
I don't know why but I do want to go further.

Nothing is different but the winds are getting colder and colder.

I feel as if someone is calling me. I think Gina is following me. I turned back to see, but no one is there.
I feel I should just go back.....maybe. But I also want to see more.
I will not get this chance again, some steps ahead can't be dangerous of course!
So.... I am going a bit more farther, only a bit.
The weather gets colder and colder.
I

ts June and the weather is already cold, how?
I look back, I'm miles away now.

As I go more further, I hear some voices.
Isabelle, I hear someone call my name.

I hear the echoes of my name again and again. I feel as if I can remember something, but then I'm blank. It's like a curse that I will never be able to remember anything about my past.
Then again I can hear something, someone calling me.
Is it the flowers or the sky? Just tell me who is it! I am getting irritated now!
I am going back!
Then I hear a heavy, sharp voice say,
" Isabelle! Go away!
But promise me you'll come back. I'll be waiting for you, all the time.
Now GO!".
I don't know whose voice is it but it indeed is familiar to my ears. I know this voice, I've heard it before. I feel its presence in me, who is it?
I know everything, but its like my brain has barriers against me and my past.
I just can't remember anything, no matter how much I pressurise my brain! Why?

But honestly I still don't remember anything. I'm totally blank.
