'thoughts'

Prologue

The small girl walked through the forest quietly. 'I shouldn't be going here,' she thought, 'dad said I'm not allowed.. I wonder why? Well, that's what I'm going to find out!'

She silently moved from tree to tree until she came a clearing which was totally surrounded by bushes. She peered into them, thinking she had seen something move. Yes! There it was again! She stood still and looked a bit harder.

Suddenly there was a pair of bright blue eyes which were staring back at her. The girl yelped in fright and turned around to run away. She kept running without looking back until she came home.

Had she turned around she would have seen the confused boy staring after her. Then he shrugged and walked away, as silent as the girl had been.

The girl's father hadn't seen anything amiss, as she was not out of breath. Nor were her footsteps falling hard on the ground. She came home perfectly calm, and thus her father hadn't asked where she had been.

As the days, months, even years passed, the girl soon forgot about the event. She did go into the forest ocasionally, but nothing ever happened. And there was nothing to remind her of the two blue eyes that had stared so curiously at her own grey ones. Many years passed until she finally met the owner of the eyes again, though she wouldn't know it at that moment.

The same girl, this time looking a bit older, finds her self talking to her father.

'You really should make some friends!' the man said, though he knew it was a lost cause. His daughter simply wasn't the type to make friends, especially with boys. And that was the problem, there only lived boys near their house. There simply were no girls in the vicinity.

The girl huffed. putting her hair behind her pointed ear, to say she was annoyed is an understatement. 'Why do I need friends, dad?' she asked, 'I can play on my own! While I don't understand why I'm not allowed to go into the forest... I could enjoy myself there so much more!'

The man shook his head, 'No child,' he said, 'it's far too dangerous out there for a young lady like you. I stand by what I said before; I won't allow you to go in there!'

'Why does he say that?' the girl thought, 'it's not dangerous there, why is he lying? I've been there numerous times already..' Then she said out loud, 'well, I'm going to my room. I'll just leave you mocking about me needing friends.'

She went to her room and lay down on her bed, pondering about what the real reason could be that her father wouldn't let her into the forest...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The girl had now grown up to be a fine young woman. Something was telling her to wake up, but she couldn't define what it was.

Then she recognised the voice of her old father, 'come on child! You wouldn't want to miss your birthday right? And breakfast's ready too.' She was wide awake now, thinking, 'oh! I almost forgot!'

'I'm up dad! I'm up!' the young woman said, 'I'm going to eat breakfast after I've taken a bath, okay?' Her father nodded and left the room.

When she came into the kitchen for breakfast, her father said, 'after you're finished, I'll take you with me into the forest. I think you're old enough now.'

He was met with a look of confusion, so he asked, 'is there something wrong?' The woman shook her head and said, 'no dad. I was just wondering why I couldn't go alone?'

The old man just smiled at her saying, 'you'll see, my daughter, you'll see.'
