The Outsider

As I run towards the forest, I slow down to catch my breath. I look around but I can't see anyone in sight. Alone. I'm all alone outside of this creepy forest with nowhere to go. Cautiously I put one foot in front of the other and begin walking along the path into the forest. The moonlit sky shine down on me like a spotlight on a stage. Trees swayed back and fourth waving at me as I step past them. All of a sudden I hear the crunching of leaves in front of me. intreagued, I creep forwards and see a crow sat in the middle of the path like it was mocking me. I stand still, turning around, taking in my surroundings and I think to myself "Why did I come here? Why did I run away from everyone?". Then I remember - there is no 'everyone '. Because I have no one! Suddenly drops of rain begin falling as I escape from my thoughts. I continue walking, hoping I'll find a small hut I can stay in. Slowly, I start jogging and then running, and then sprinting. I'm trying to find shelter but I can't- I'm trying to find shelter from my emotions - but I can't! I can't get away from the feeling of being an outsider. My foot steps into a puddle and I see my reflection. My dirty blonde hair falling out of my ponytail. The cut from the branches making the corner of my eyebrow bleed a little. I look into my eyes and wipe the tears. I decide to carry on walking and then hopefully I can forget this. All of a sudden I see a light beaming towards me. There are two people with torches shining into my eyes. They run over to me. Do I know them? I don't remember them? The two strangers hug me, telling me that I'll be ok. I step back confused. Then they explain. They explain everything and I finally realise - I am an outsider, but its not my fault. I have amnesia so I don't remember things after a while. BUT, I understand everything now!
