The Last One Standing

Goodness! What a terrible idea. Should have stopped at Isaka. Now this dreadful, fearful rain won’t give me a break and not one of these houses in sight seems inhabited.

Do not go out. Please! For god’s sake! You are the last hope in the gloomy, cumbersome hell of a weather. Geez. This town is such a…..ghost town. How come there isn’t a single soul inhabiting these areas?

Wizzzzzzz

My god these winds are crazy strong and every time it blows, a chill runs down my spine It is almost as if someone is commanding it. 

OH MY GOD! IS THAT SOMEONE BLOWING ON THE BACK OF MY NECK??!!

 

"Come in…Come close… Do our bidding."

 

Whispers??!! Whispers!! Was that what I heard? I haven’t lost my mind, have I?

 

Wizzzzzzz

 

There!! That looks like someone…… Nope. No. That is just a banyan tree. Gosh! Creepy how those winds make those ariel roots move. Almost makes it look like a witch’s hair in this pitch-black darkness.

 

 

AHA! There is a diya that flickers! Surely someone worships this tree. Now where on earth is this person living? I need help! It is too dark to see anything ahead. I don’t know where I am! Maliha must be still 13 miles away or something?! This lamp is gonna go out any second! Holding this tarp up is eating up my strength. A FIRE!!! Fire is what I want!! It is so cold!!!! I am not going to survive.

"I AM GOING TO DIE!!!"

 

"SOMEONE! PLEASE! HELP ME!"
