1099 Words
B 1 - E 1 . . As usual, I woke up again because of the sunlight hitting my eyes . . Normally, I would get up right away even though it was my day off today, but I felt so bad that I was going to continue my sleep for now, but then I noticed something strange . . I felt like I wasn't lying in my bed and the sunlight was a bit painful, so I opened my eyes and even though my vision was blurry, I was sure I wasn't in my room or even inside our house . . What I see now is not the ceiling of my room but rather a tree branch with not many leaves and the position of the sun is as if it is about to noon. . I was going to try to get up right away, but I felt so weak and my hands and feet were numb . . Apart from that, I'm also dizzy and have a headache. I'm not nauseous but I feel very hungry . . The only reason I can think of about how I ended up in this place is that I was sleepwalked, but there is no place like this near the house . . I could have been kidn*pped, but why was I left in this place ? My head hurts even more, the more I think . . I was going to try to scream for help, but I couldn't because my throat was so dry . . I can't think clearly because of the headache and hunger are overwhelming . . I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, trying to relax my mind as much as I could, like I do when I'm stressed . . I was like this for a few minutes but it seemed like nothing was happening when suddenly, I felt something strange inside me that I couldn't understand and at that moment it seemed like my headache was starting to go away a little by little . . I continued doing that for a few more minutes and the numbness in my hands and feet decreased . . I continued for a few more minutes, but it seemed like nothing was happening . . I tried to get up now and even though it was difficult because of the weakening of my arms, I managed to sit up and lean against the tree I was sheltering from . . I rubbed my eyes to clear the blurriness and even though my vision wasn't as good as before, I was sure there were no houses or buildings around here . . On my right side there is a steep mountain and there are few trees like the one I am sheltering now . . On my right side, I was almost at the foot of a steep mountain and there were few trees like the one I was sheltering under now . . On my left, there is also a mountain in the distance and there are many trees and bushes that look like they have fruits . . Even if those are not fruits, I still need to go there because the trees there have better shade against the sun, I'll get even weaker from the heat if I stay in the trees in this area . . I forced myself to stand up even though it was hard because my legs still felt so weak, it helped that I used the tree as support to stand . . Even though slowly, I walked to the nearest tree on the other side, the one with a nearby shrub that looked like it had fruit . . It's almost noon by my estimate, the sunlight is still a bit painful, but at least it's not like before when I wake up, the breeze is helping . . I felt like my knees were going to give out from weakness, so when I reached the tree I immediately sat down and leaned against it. . . I think I only walked less than a hundred meters, but I was almost out of breath and my knees almost gave out . . I don't know what fruits are the green fruit with black lines on the tree and the red fruits that the other is red-orange on the bush . . I can't reach the fruit on the tree so I have no choice but to eat the one in the shrub . . I picked a red fruit and a red-orange fruit from the bush that was just next to me, the fruits are just about the size of my little fingernail . . The red-orange fruit is sour and the red fruit has a little sweetness. I picked lots of red fruit that almost overflowed on my palm and that's what I ate . . The fruit is also juicy so the dryness in my throat has decreased a bit, it seems like I only ate a little but I feel full. . Because I had eaten, most of the bad feelings I had earlier disappeared . . Only a slight headache and the weakening feeling in my arms and legs is almost gone . . And because hunger is no longer overwhelming me, I can think more clearly and now I notice that my arms and legs are thinner, and my stomach is gone . . Then I thought that maybe I slept for too long, which is why I was so hungry earlier and my body was weak, it felt like the comatose person I watched on the show before, but that still contradicts why am I in a place like this . . I noticed that my clothes were not normal, I didn't know what place had this type of clothing . . I was even wondering why the scar on my hand that had been there since I was a child because of a dog bite had disappeared . . I was worried because it occurred to me that this wasn't my body and I asked myself . . "Whose body is this? Where is my body? Am I dead? Can I ever return to my body?" . And many more questions crossed my mind then suddenly I heard a strange voice . . "Language data analysis complete" . I couldn't understand which direction the voice was coming from so I just looked around to see who had spoken but didn't see anybody . . . .
