The boy was extremely shy. He didn't know what was actually happening and who this girl was. He tried to say something, but he couldn't get anything out.
- You understand what I say? - said the teenage girl with a clearly worried face.
- Ah yes, yes - the boy finally choked out - I just don't know what to say exactly.
- You can introduce yourself first. But wait, where are my manners? After all, you are the guest. My name is Abi. And you?
He didn't know what to answer. It wasn't because he was ashamed or anything like that, he just didn't know. His mind was completely blank.
- I don't remember - he replied after a short moment of reflection.
- That's okay. At first, I didn't remember anything, but after some time the memories came back. It will probably be the same with you. They are too important to lose them like that.
After a short exchange of words, there was silence. Quite an awkward silence. Both heroes didn't know what to say. It was quite a new situation for both of them, and it was difficult for them to find their way around.
- Why are your eyes so red? Were you crying? - Abi asked after a long moment.
- No? My eyes are red? - replied the boy.
- Yes, and it's very. They look like they're about to explode with ketchup! There is no reason to be ashamed if you cry. It can happen to anyone in the last moments.
- I said I didn't cry.
But the mysterious words "in the last moments" stuck in his head. He was tempted to ask what exactly she meant, but he decided not to ask any questions now. Just listening made him curious. After all, it was the only interesting thing amidst all the surrounding darkness.
- Hey, how about visiting a good friend of mine. He lives not far from here. We actually live together, but it's still his house. I guess I'm a kind of temporary roommate.
- So, is there anyone else here? - asked the boy.
- Exactly. His name is Sally and he's a really nice guy. Sometimes too pleasant, but that's probably not a big problem. True? Hahah - she laughed.
- No, absolutely. We can go, I just have trouble moving. I can not get up. I have great difficulty with this. Something seemed to be pressing me to the ground.
Abi grabbed and pulled the boy's hand. Surprisingly, he stood up immediately, without any issues. The boy looked at the blue-eyed girl with an expressive face of admiration.
-Anyway, I'll take you - she smiled and set off with the hero, whose hand she held all the time.
They walked for a long time. Nothing but nothingness and darkness surrounded them, until the boy saw something emerging from the depths. It was something like a dried stone, shrouded in a white, shiny shade. The boulder also had two large, deep holes located close to each other. It looked extremely unusual. Moving on, the heroes finally reached their specific goal. After a long hike, you could see something resembling a white house, covered by numerous gray trees with falling and shiny leaves. The boy felt a strange and disturbing tingling sensation. Abi noticed this with the tip of her blue eye and smiled widely. She looked like she knew this feeling exactly.
