The tears softly patter from the sky has to swamp all over the narrow land. Crops floated above the sunk surface, likewise the whole of habitat. Blocks were spoiled, lights were dim, cloths covered the frame, only the gleam of the dingy lantern. Days by months and season had passed, bones froze and flesh sunk, at the edge of those who are breathless. And neither paddy nor bread, inside the shack, nothing left to be served but holding over the tick of the clock that will eventually come to the very edge.
Fishes dancing around spreading their tails over the wet short-puddles yet, it was tall enough to reach over the men navels, but not quite over the chest. The puddle was slightly cold as the wind blow fell from the hills, therefore the body growl and perform harder to warmth. However, it all seems impassable with an empty fuel.
Days rotate thirty-times more but cloud none seems whitenings, the thick fog that floats above the atmosphere will eventually be seen by the sensor when the nights arrived, whereas the warm haze collapsed to the surface when the sun has risen, that phenomenon not often visible where the horizon blinded from the wrath of the Almighty.
The gob and bundle of woods were fragile even collapsed, remaining a few that able to stand. There she was, under the red-colored fade rooftop, a young girl daydreaming, next to the only window that was open wide and lonely.
The Beginning
"What were you thinking of? ", never have I forget that expression on her pale face, inside she was covered but deeply she was trapped, that picture manifested in my mind for quite a time. Red hair like rambutan-red, Blue eyes like the blue-ocean deep, pointy nose and two pairs of tooths that are marching a bit forward than the rest of the line, bravely. In my sight, she appeared, at the very distance of me, who stood at the peak of the highest Nara tree. "What was inside your head. little girl?"
Her fingers slightly moved, the sight seems frozen, took a frame into her embrace. " What did you see?"
Ocean in her eyes almost looks wavy, even the stream in her teary-eyed was fallen and moisten her entire face. I wished it was as easy as snapping fingers. Therefore, I wouldn't mind approaching her, however, even click a finger I couldn't, a name I haven't gotten, if I'm reaching over her, that I wouldn't be surprised to get thrown by stones, just like what happened to me with the other children from the previous days.
Although what in the world of words could describe what I felt, what I have witnessed, my black-fur went plumbs and sharpened like needles, my pupils widened covered the entire surface that supposed to be in yellow-colored, of her who took a clear bag of plastic and capped her whole head covered, strapped around her neck and the bag kept shortened and deflated along in every breath she took. " Oh, Young lady, I'm the only one who born with nine-lives.”
What am I thinking of?" My body has woken from sleep, feet ran and jumped recklessly during the thunder strike, from the tip of the branch to the roofs and top of the ceilings, house over houses, twelve feet the gap between one and another, through the pipes declining and depending with my claws, weaken my clench and pushed it away from the body to the balcony of the window I went, she, who has laid down powerless.
Clenches both of her palms, but the vision has slowly faded. How long have I been running for?"
My claws sprouted with its fangs, in a rush, I ripped and pulled apart the plastic into shredded, the drops of blood glide from scratches of her nose into her cheek. " Young Lady, you gave me no other choice."
