In The Land Of Silence(Where's Amanda?)
What is happening to me? where am l? why's no one talking to me or responding me? I've plans for tomorrow an important business meeting that will yield millions of dollars. This is the best business deal my company has ever gotten can't miss it for anything. What's going l can't miss it for anything. What's going on? why is everywhere so dark and I can't even see a thing?
Let me wait till morning but l can't shake off this weird feeling I'm having. I can't place what it is, but wait a minute, l thought l was lying beside Michael last night. Where is is he? Amanda looked around her while trying to understand what's happening to her. She prayed silently that nothing stupid is happening. While she was still looking around she find a stone beside her and sat down trying her very best to calm herself. She was staring in the thin air mindlessly when suddenly she noticed the practice of two person's passing by but she couldn't see their faces getting up she sprang up and ran towards their direction without minding the consequences of her actions. Excuse me, she shouted, please I'm lost here, I didn't know what I'm doing here, nor do l understand what's happening to me. what's the name of this place? what's it called? They stood there listening to her blabbing without altering any word. After a while they left without responding to her.
She exhale exhaustedly and went back to her sitting position, still thinking what she should do. And she silently prayed that morning should come already.
After two hours of sitting and battling with confusion, a young adult of nineteen years was passing by and she noticed him too but didn't see his face. She rushed to him as well asking him the same question but the boy ignored her and continued on his journey without altering a word. She was beginning to be frustrated about the whole thing and no one wants to talk to her, everyone seems to be Moody and don't like interacting with people. This place looks lonely and deserted only few persons can be seen but all of them seems too serious and some was walking mindlessly without concentrating, walking as if they are robots, zombies or somehow like ghosts.
She immediately shake off the later from her memory. She had heard about some horror stories about ghosts and the way they behave. And it looks a bit different but somehow similar.
As she was on her revere, she was suddenly brought back when she had the voices of a group of people passing by and she immediately decided to join them and find her way back home. After three hours, she noticed that the people she has been following has suddenly reduced drastically to less than seven persons and they never replied any of her questions behaving like she was never present there, will she say, invisible like a ghost. At that thought a shiver ran down her spine, she immediately shake it off from her mind as she suddenly felt this strange fear that she is now a ghost.
After a while she now noticed that she was walking alone on a narrow road that was deserted as she could hear silent whispers and murmuring of people like it was carried by the eerie air of the darkness as she could see no one neither feel the presence of any being. She became so afraid that
she started tearing up. While walking, she prayed silently that she will meet anyone to help and direct her on what to do. She needed someone to explain to her what's happening. She prayed and prayed silently. She decided to rest for a while and she immediately sighted a huge truck that fell beside the road and sat there hoping and praying that God will send an angel to her. She had heard about how God normally sent an angel in form of humans to help people who are in need.
Impossible right? Seems like a fantasy but who could tell, might just be as true.... After a while which feels like ages to her as she was flooded by her miserable reverea,a man in white and a woman who was passing saw how she was mindlessly starring in the thin air and decided to ask her what the problem was. My dear, what's the problem? the woman asked bringing her out of her deep thought. She couldn't believe that someone was actually seeing her and could asked ba her a question. She stood up from where she was sitting and her if definitely they was seeing her, the woman nodded with a smile. What's your problem? Why are you here? The womanasked her again consciously. I have been trying to communicate with everyone but no one, not even a person wants to answer me, everyone was behaving like I'm a ghost, Amanda replied hopelessly. What's your name and where are you from? The woman asked again while observing her.
I'm Amanda Julius. I came from one of the richest and most Influential family in Canada. I'm the only child of my parents and l have a older step sister who was adopted by my parents when she was four years. Amanda said regrettably, remembering how she was treated by her step sister. She was a little happy now that she can easily relate with people here.
