Close that I can almost feel him...
So I was left alone, walking by myself. I don't even know where he is now, I had too much pride to chase after him or even call his name. He really pissed me off, you know? I hate him! What's his problem. I sighed and shook my head, looking around the area I stumbled in.
"Great... where the hell am I?" I murmured to myself. Apparently, I stumbled into a small green area by the river. It seemed so quiet and peaceful that I could only hear the rush of water flowing through the river and nothing else. Well, except for the crickets. It's dark now and only the moon served as my light.
"I'm so tired and exhausted..." I sighed once more, plopping beside the river while looking at my darkened reflection.
"Man... I'll get that Irvine if it's the last thing I do! While he's feasting some good gruel, I'm here without a single thing to eat.." I paused and heard my stomach growl. "Great... now, what to eat..." I looked around for something to eat.
"Hm.. let's see, grass, grass, bush, trees without a single edible fruit on them, grass, grass and some more grass... yeah, like I'm going to turn into a goat and eat that... ugh..." I collapse against the ground on my back with my eyes gazing up the sky.
For a second, I connected the stars and found some images. "Oooooh, there's a pot of stew!" I pointed up the sky. "Oh, there's a picture of Zeke" I giggled unconsciously.
"...what the.." I squinted my eyes at the other image I had found.
"Ir...vine..?" I stared at it blankly for a while. A smiling image of him up the sky made up of stars..my imagination..?
"Damn you!" I yelled out, pointing angrily above. "Leave me alone! Bastard! Leaving me like that! What's your problem huh?! Well you know what? You could just go to hell!!!" I paused for a while "..and I hate you!!!!"
I must be pretty tired because I drifted off to sleep for a while. It's pitch dark now and the light from the moon isn't as effective as it was earlier. I reached my hands to the cool water and washed my face. I probably looked dusty and dirty from all that running around me and Irvine did. I was probably still sleepy until I heard my stomach growl loudly. I suddenly felt a sharp pain on my stomach as the sound repeated again.
"I wonder if there's fish swimming around this river.. or at least something edible around this area.." I wondered at loud. Why should I care anyway? It's not like there's someone here besides me. I didn't want my only clothes to get wet so I stripped off, folding my clothes neatly before launching myself to the river. The cold water touched my skin, causing me to wince a little. Within a matter of minutes, I got used to the water's temperature and I swam around, half cleaning my self, half-looking for food. Suddenly, I felt a soft-like creature brush against my thighs. 'Aha!' I thought to myself, stealthily seizing my movement. When I felt it again, I swiftly grab it with my hand and there it is, dinner!
I must be pretty excited to eat because I got my clothes on pretty fast and now starting a small fire to cook my prey with. I caught a small fish but hey, food is food so I didn't complained.
"Stupid damn thing!" I cursed loudly at the two stones that I've been trying to make fire with. "Why won't you light up?!?!?!?!" I was about to give up when I finally succeeded into lighting it and cheerfully cooked my dinner.
"I see you caught your own dinner..." I was about to bite into the fish when I heard that. I turned my head slightly over my shoulder, getting an image of a familiar shadow.
"What do you want?! Go away! I'm eating!" I bit hard on the fish and chewed it loudly with a stubborn attitude.
Irvine walked up to me and gazed down at my pitiful fish.
"What are you looking at?!" I snapped with half of the fish still in my mouth. "Hey, it's food and I caught it myself!" I said proudly.
He made no reply. Instead, he sat by me. "What you did was dangerous..."
This time, I've had it. I threw the rest of the fish on the fire and stood up furiously, glaring down at him. "I've had it with you! I'm so sick of you throwing attitude at me! If you don't have anything better to do than give me your damn sermon then just go away and leave me alone!" I turned my back to him and started walking away, making each step slam against the ground. I suddenly felt a grasp on my arm and then a pull. I found myself against him and I shot up a glance up to his face. Suddenly, there's that calm Irvine again. There's no single trace of the angry Irvine from before. Now, I saw...worry within his eyes. Anger left my chest and I find myself wondering what I should feel right now.
There was a long silence...
"I'm sorry, Moonbay..." He whispered, dropping his face on the side of my face. I could feel his breathing against my ear which made my heart feel like it just dropped on the floor.
