After a month of staying in the forest, Nancy was used to the fact that living in the forest is already a reality and her new home.
She stopped asking herself why she was in the forest but rather how she needs to survive each day.
****
One day, she went up on the hill and looked at how big the forest was. She was admiring the serenity of the forest and beauty of the trees when a thought came to her mind... Even though the forest is beautiful, " You don't belong here, look far ahead ".
The next day, she decided to start a journey and find out what is ahead of her. She came across different kinds of animals, plants, flowers, fruits on her way. She got very scared on various occasions. She didnt see any human being and wanted to give up several times.
She laughed at herself and wondered why she even set off on a worthless journey.
She kept walking and walking for three weeks tirelessly before she came into a village.
At first, Nancy didn't have an idea of where she was... then suddenly, she saw lots of children then came the adults. She was so happy to see lots of people and they were glad to see Nancy because they know her and assumed she was lost in the forest forever. Nancy wasn't the first person to get lost in the forest from the village.
She told them about her long journey and how she survived everyday in the forest for almost two months.
The happiness she felt was incredible because she never gave up and kept on looking far ahead for a miracle of seeing someone.

Nancy kept rolling from one end of the bed to another enjoying the softness of her mattress her dad bought her a fortnight ago on a bright sunny day when the alarm clock rang .
She tried to stretch her hand to turn it off when she hit the edge of the bed with her elbow. Ouch! It hurts...
Opening her eyes instantly, she looked at her elbow, rubbed her fingers round it and then a quick look at her room. She sat up immediately when she realized she wasn't in a village or in the forest. Then, it dawn on her... She just had her first magical dream and she smiled.
Running out of her room, Nancy kept on shouting Dadddddd... I had a magical dream and I have to tell you all about it.
