I returned home for my savings, maybe with that I could buy a ticket back ...
I heard Mom arrive and open the door, I managed to escape through the window of my room and run to the train station.
- Hello, a ticket, please- I said exhausted from so much running
-to...where? - Asked the lady behind the booth where they sold the tickets.
- Underground City -
She stared at me through her glasses which really made me very uncomfortable.
- know what?, in fact it is nonsense, obviously there is no underground city - I mentioned keeping the bills in my bag.
- No, it's not nonsense - she said making signs to enter in the tiny cabin, which I obeyed and entered - Follow me - pushed a small golden lever that was there. Generally that cabin was about to overflow sales but that particular day was deserted.
She guided me through a very dark tunnel, which she then illuminated with a torch.
"Ready girl?" The lady asked. "Now, just Slide down through this conduit and you'll get to the train," she said pointing to the floor that had a huge hole.
-I do not know , Is it safe?
-don't worry it's perfectly safe, also if you do not slide down I Will push you -
That had not been part of the deal, (although there was no deal) but I would not allow them to treat me like that.
- I'm sorry but I can not go this way- I said a little annoyed
- I understand ...- she said pushing me towards that strange hole
-Aaaaaaaa- I was screaming trying to grab some root or rock as I fell.
- I ... I hoy you- I heard a voice at the end of the tunnel It was secret!
-Secret, I'm glad to see you! - I hugged him tightly, because he had slowed my fall.
-It's also good to see you- said placing me on the floor -What are you doing here? -
-I was going to take a train to see you-
- What a coincidence. I came to this station to look for you- He said with a smile - now, tell me, do you have the box I gave you? -
-I do not have it-
With that phrase ... I just received a look of disapproval from him.
I had failed ...
-Well, where do you think it is? - He asked with crossed arms and serious.
- on that train - I pointed out that machine in motion.
- I see ... and how do you plan to recover it?
