Gigiana woke up from where she lay in the woods, at the base of an old tree stump. She had heard her name very loud in her mother's voice. She sounded really angry. All of a sudden, the shadows that felt like a comfort zone to her suddenly became eerie for her. She looked up at the trees that towered so easily above her. She scampered to her feet and shook her head, looking around into the darkness to accustom her eyes to it. Soon, she could see like it was daylight. She wandered in the forest aimlessly, not knowing where to go. Obviously still startled from her dream. Or rather, her mother's angry voice. She miscalculated her steps and fell headlong down the slope, almost into the small lake. She quickly regained her orientations and stayed on the land. Surely, she was lost at last.
