Dead…Again” she sighed as she turn the knob and shut the Door With a loud bang. 

Evening breeze passing and blowing up her purple hoddie, a little Girl named Blue walking through the woods, her dark brown eyes seeing through her bangs with a little blurriness taking one by one step ahead, 

Those eyes keep getting dark as she goes in deep. If you look closely you can tell with those bruises over her feets that she’s been walking for so long, there’s a tiredness on her pretty small face but she keep distracting herself with the view around her. 

Mumma said I have to go at grandmother’s place to take care of her, she also ask me to give her these blue berry so then she’ll make medicine for us and for herself. I remember I was little, very little, when I saw her, she was old had many wrinkles and walks with her stick, she used to tell me stories about a forest and animals, how they’re depend on each other and how we are on top of this monarch. 

[Looks at the sign board] 

[Right] [Left] 

She stand there and rub her chin for a sec while examining the routes than a lift came on the corners of her lips. 

Left!! I need to take left turn that’s what Mumma said, when I asked her for directions she said if I take the turn left I’ll get at grandma’s house really fast. 

She take left turn and start walking in that direction, every move of bush or tree make anxious and somethingelse too making her worried and scared at the same time, she hearing the voices of animals and insects and the people that she can’t see, she put her right hand on chest as her breath get heavier with each step. 

This ….. Suffocation…. again I… Ca..n’t .walk

She took help from the tree as she put her hand on it and pressing her weight towards it, she patting and huffing and gasping to catch her breath. All the sweat covered her face and if you take a close look on it you can see the lines of tears has been made so many times that now there’s no tears left in her eyes to cry, even tho they want to. 

She rub her face to clean the sweat and now the scars and marks on her face are visible, some looks fresh some old, some are minor and some are deep, real deep. 

She gather herself, stand and starts walking again, with a smile on her face which looks a beg for a help.There are whispers she hearing she keep looking around as if there is person too. But no one she can see. 

I am sorry I behave like this time to time, 

I felt suffocation, I don’t know why I am like this and I am sorry for making you wait, Dad said I got this from Mumma , because when she was little she lived near poison gas lab, which was harmful very-very harmful, that made 

her sick and now I am sick too, that’s why papa don’t like me and mother, I remember once mumma yelled at him and he threw me in Lake as a punishment, I was sacred I begged him, he didn’t listen, I remember I couldn’t breathe there, couldn’t see anything, just going down and down. Dad was there standing looking down at me with a satisfactory face I try to call him but words couldn’t came out for my mouth, they stuck, I tried to move but the water keep pulling me downwards. I was scared but then I remember how you move in water, So I did and with the magic I get out of there and I was saved but when I came out mumma was there standing looking at me with disappointed face. 

Sign board of Left and Right directions 

She give a look at right direction then rolls her eyes. As she cover her ears. Left again 

She said with a bitter voice then turn to her normal sweet chirpy tone

Mumma said I can be like other kids who laugh, smile, play who are normal, I can be normal too 

Once granny make medicine 

she hold her left hand in front and looks at the basket she is holding, put of her right hand in it and takes out a human heart the blood was dry so was the skin of the heart so many cuts and are on it 

with this, this is rare blue berry, it hidden in the chest of our body and we need someone else to take care ours. 

There was letter in the basket too which is covered in blood some letters were visible killed, dangerous, her , good. 

It’s hard to understand the words and make up a sentence. 

After I get better I will make Mumma proud. So she can put back dad’s bule berry back into his chest and he can awake from the sleep. 

she looks at the sky 

It’s almost dusk we need to be fast 

This time she see three routes in front of her 

[Right , Left and Straight ] 

She can choose any, she had a free will, she rubbed her hands and closed her eyes to pray something then she stand with a blank face like she knows which is the right direction but can’t move in it, her eyes keep looking at the right route but her feets moved towards left. 

Darkness of her eyes turning darker and darker as the light getting lost from the sky and from her eyes, she looking around like searching for the things that never been here in the first place.

So I was saying once I get this med I give it Mumma So she don’t have to scream, shout and hurt me. 

And also don’t have to Sacrifice my brothers each time they born half dead, Mumma say it’s my fault because I am alive. 

But you don’t have to worried, I’ll take care of you She said as she pat the head of Wolf who walking next to her. 

Finally reached to her grandmothers house 

She knocked 

No reply 

She knocked again still no reply but then the door swings inside ohhh door is open, Grandmaa…. 

She saw her grandmother’s half eaten dead body laying on the floor. 

The dissappointed she saw on the face of her Mother when she didn’t found Blue dead, same dissappointed appeared on her face. 

“She is Dead…Again” she sighed as she turn the knob and shut the Door. 

Mother said I have to go at grandmother’s place to take care of her, she also ask me give her and her these blue berry so then she’ll make medicine from these for us and herself. I remember I was little, very little, when I first saw 

her, she was old had many wrinkles and walks with her stick, she used to tell me stories about a forest and animals, how they’re depend on each other and how we are on top of this monarch.
