Looking for Eider: Starry Sky


  Like the girl with wings like birds called Eider, told me, I kept running. I kept running across the meadow feeling myself ten feet tall, I felt incredible, I was ready to live till I met someone who was on my way. It was a man. At the moment I looked him in his eyes, I felt like I shouldn't trust him, anyway, the man asked me;

-What are you doing here? This is a dangerous place for a little boy like you

-I'm looking for something, I have to keep going, sorry I don't have time to talk. -I said while I was walking

-Ok, I'm not going to steal your time boy, I'm Arsenio by the way, nice to meet you .-The man said

  I knew that I had to get out of there, so I just shaked his hand. After do that my plan was start to run but at the moment I touch his hand the ground under my feet started to colapse. I was falling down, falling into a black hole in the ground.

  It took much time till I touched the floor of the black hole, it was a long way down, and by the way, I couldn't see anything. It was too dark.

  I started to cry, I felt mad, I felt sad. I didn't understand why that man would do this to a person, to me, someone who he didn't know. I don't know why when you are feeling like you are at the top of the world, someone else comes and makes everything fall apart.

 I don't know how much time I kept crying, but I felt it like a lifetime.

 Then I saw a lot of sparks of light, coming from the floor, finally the darkness was fading away. I started to see a starry sky just for me, inside that hole, it felt extraordinary. At that moment I heard Eider's voice. The girl with wings like birds was coming down the hole, she took my hand and then she took me out of it. While we were flying to the outside Eider said;

-Don't be afraid little boy, it's a long journey and you are going to meet many people. There are bad people in this world, people that just do evil things for fun. Keep your self away of them, and enjoy every little second of happiness.
