The wind blew against my face as I waited for Leon to come back. It had been five minutes since I had asked him to tell the truth and it had been four minutes since Leon went into the forest. I was getting slightly worried that he had left me. I knew from the look on his face that he was really nervous. I didn't know if he was nervous about the fact that he was telling me his secret, by trusting me a lot, or the fact that he was nervous about how I would think of him after I knew his secret. The crunching sound of fallen leaves breaks me from the thoughts that are clouding my mind. I stood up to my feet, not sure if it was Leon or someone else. I push myself from the tree I was leaning on. As the footsteps came closer, I began to wonder where was Leon. The footsteps were slow but loud.
