A Change of Direction In The Wind

I feel my mind going blank, My balance has completely shifted forward. My only response is to grip my walking stick tighter and my free hand reaching out to grab onto something, anything. As I piece everything together from the high winds and grassy field, I come to the conclusion that I'm probably on top of a cliff, and I'm about to fall down from it. Whoever that person that called out from the back, I don't think they'll be able to catch me before I fall over. This is it... although I couldn't see anything, I close my eyes anyway. As I do so, I begin to focus as I hear my heartbeat through my ears. The grass rustles behind me, and it gradually becomes louder and louder. Suddenly I feel a grip on my left wrist that has somehow ascended into the air, strong grip on my wrist, at this point most of my body has gone over the cliff. I can feel long sharp nails on my skin from the hold, it's a hand, could it be that person's? The person then yanks on my arm and I feel my whole body getting pulled back with a jolt, I gasp at the suddenness. My body turns sideways and falls backwards, I open my eyes in shock. I then feel an arm wrap around my back pulling me into something, I suddenly feel a presence in front of me. I fall into someone, the person continues to hold onto my wrist as their other arm holds me to them. The hand that held onto the walking stick loosens as I try to grab onto something to balance myself, my walking stick flies out of my hand, but I feel silk fabric soon after. My face lands against to what I assume is the person's chest as a light "oof" escapes my mouth. I can hear breathing next to my ear and soft hair grazing gently against my face. A scent fills my nostrils, a strong scent of that of a clean dog after a bath, it's peculiar but somehow intoxicating. The person feels warm and I kind of feel myself getting lost in their warmth, I can feel my heart pounding in my chest but I also feel safe now. Time seem to stop for a while even though only a few seconds has passed, the person saved me.

"What are you crazy or something? I yelled at you to stop walking but you kept on walking?!" The person suddenly says harshly.

Their voice pulls me back into reality. It's a man's voice, loud, rash, and slightly filled with an arrogant tone. I feel annoyance boil up inside of me all of a sudden, I pull myself away from them and pry his arms off of me. I take a step back and look up, I'm not sure where he is exactly but I'm just going to take a guess that he's in front of me.

"Thank you for saving me, but you don't have to be so harsh, I didn't hear you due to the high winds and I couldn't see." I reply back to them as calmly as I can.

"Ya sure, hearing might have been difficult due to the distance and strong wind but you have eyes, did you not see the cliff in front of you, are you blind?!" He continues.

I lost it, my brows furrows and I feel my eyes wondering around now instead of focusing on one place.

"Yes, I am blind. I can't see, that's what happens to people who are blind! I don't need you to tell me that I'm blind because I know that. Again thanks for saving me and hope you have a good day!" I say raising my voice in anger.

I give a bow and turn to the side a little to walk away from this person, who does he think he is?

"Hey you, wait." He suddenly says.

I stop and turn slightly but not directing my eyes to the direction of his voice.

"What?!" I reply back irritated.

A brief silence falls over the place, the wind whooshes across the field.

"You're the Artistic Butterfly aren't you?" He asks with a calmer tone but his voice isn't lessening my irritation.

My eyes widen slightly at the question, he knows me. I turn my body towards his direction, I furrow my brows slightly. I feel alert.

"Who are you and how do you know me?" I question him.
