Entry 22 – October 27, 2012
I woke up this morning with my journal on my chest. I must have read all the previous entries. There weren't very many clues that I could have overlooked about the creature. Maybe I could have been more thorough in my writing. I went out to my backyard and investigated around the tree-house. I saw the branch that had snapped and fallen from the trunk. There were scratch marks on it, the ones I've seen before. I just stood, looking place where the tree had snapped. I still felt confused about everything, not just about last night. When I went up into my tree-house, I noticed something. That branch that snapped was pretty close to the balcony of the tree-house. I never really realized that. I guess it was a fact I knew, that the creature had been reducing its distance from me over time. I do remember a few days ago when I discovered the tracks that led to a spot where my bedroom window could be seen. I did think that was "payback" for my intrusion, but maybe it was more than that. I don't know, it just seems like that. With the fact that this is definitely something that not too many (if any other) people know about. I could be the only one to gain contact with the creature. When night came, I was actually debating whether I should go to the tree-house or not. I now wonder why I would even have second thoughts. The creature arrived and landed on a branch. Of course, a different branch. The first thing I mentioned to the creature was last night. I said the night was crazy. It sounded like it was in concordance. I told it I was glad it was okay. The creature liked that comment apparently. I mentioned something along the lines of: "I thought you were going to hit the ground. I didn't know you had wings." I then heard the creature make a new sound. It must have been surprised or something, because it sounded like that. The rest of the night went about normal. Before I left, I said: "Good night" and went back home. I remember a couple of entries ago when I said I wanted to mention to the creature about being able to see it during the day. I need to do that soon. I don't know if it'll be tomorrow or even the next day. I gotta say something. I know I'm getting close to seeing what the creature looks like. I just don't feel like I have the courage to say anything. For all I know, the creature might just be waiting for me to mention something about seeing it on the ground. That would be cool if it were like that. I guess all I need to do is say something soon.
