CHAPTER 1
I was feeling very exuberant and anxious. It was a very isolated path and it was damn strange because it was evening time and nobody was on the road. I walked for upto 2 hours till I came to woods but I didn't stop because I knew these woods were small so I entered. Few hours more passed I rued at my decision that the woods were very small. It was nearly end of Twilight so I thought to put my tent. After some time , my tent was ready, I sat outside the tent enjoying the food I brought. It was very quiet and chilly wind was flowing. Then I heard the rustling of leaves and approaching footsteps. Terror crept me but soon I overcame the terror. Slowly dark figure appeared from bushes. Then the figure came into light. It was a girl of my age. She had golden hair and sharp features. She came to light and before I could talk anything she fell down. I tried not to panic. I went into my tent and brought a water bottle. I threw some water on her face and she came to consciousness. I made her drink some water " Hi! I am Breeata and you?" She saw me for a minute and then sat upright "Hi! I am Catarnia. Thank-you for saving my life". Her voice was like chiming bells. "Welcome, It was my duty to save you . Well, what are you doing here in this forest?" I could hear my strange defensive voice then she spoke" I think I should also ask the same question. Well I am an anthropologist and paranormal investigator." I jumped feeling excited " What? Really, me too, I mean I am also an anthropologist and I have started my journey from today." She also jumped" I have also started my journey from today what a coincidence. How about we both do the journey together". I could not stop words I spoke unthinkingly " Well, it would be lot of fun. So, friends." " Friends". We shook our hands and she put her tent and we resumed our food. We ate silently. After eating we went to our respective tents and slept. I was awake for a long time but slowly I drifted into sleep. When I opened my eyes sun was shining brightly I came out and didn't find Catarnia there but found a note was pinned on her tent. I removed it and started reading it. It was beautifully written in italics. I thought about my mother she used to always scold me that not even God can't read my handwriting I laughed and sighed and then started reading.
Dear Breeata,
If you get up and don't find me don't worry I am going to find some fruits and water for us. I will not take long till then you get fresh up and pack your things.
Catarnia.
As Catarnia said I packed my tent. I waited for some time and packed things for her also. Then she arrived with bag full of fruits and water bottles. She thanked me for packing her bag too and we set towards the town.
