CHAPTER 4

“I’ll help you find your way home, if you want me to.” Abe said with a smile, as he held his hand out to shake.

I never noticed until now, remembering. His eyes were so gentle, so kind, and yet there was something that I couldn’t quiet make out. Could have it been? It was! Their was a sparkle!!! Anyway…..

“Thank you” was all that I managed to say.

Our hands shook up and down.

We stared at each other for a minute, before Abe said

“Okay! Follow me.”

I giggled at the words spoken. Abe, now five steps ahead of me, stopped and turned around to see me laughing. He looked confused.

“What’s so funny?” he asked, raising his brow.

“Oh, nothing...” I replied. Knowing full well that I was the only one who knew why I was laughing. I controlled myself. I reminded myself that this is his world, and that he doesn’t know that this is a game.

“I’m coming,” I reassured the waiting Abe in front of me, and caught up to him.

I yawned, as we went further and further in the night. Abe stopped, and looked at me.

“Are you tired?” he asked concerned.

I tried to pretend that I wasn’t.

“Huh? Who me? Naw! I’m not….” A yawn interrupted my sentence.

“Tired at all! Not one bit!” I finished.

Abe stared at me with that ‘I know better’ look on his face.

“What!?” I said my hands positioned like an Egyptian statue.

“Your tired, I can tell,” Abe said in a soft genital voice, the kind of voice that…someone who really cares for would sound like. I stared back at him for a moment before saying,

“Okay I may be a little tired, but I just didn’t want to slow you down.”

Suddenly I look in the direction where Abe was standing, but he wasn’t there. I whirled around to find that the whole time I was talking; he was taking leaves and putting them in a pile. It looked like he was making a bed of leaves.

“Oh…we’re stopping?” I asked Abe.

“Yep! ^^” he answered.

“But I didn’t want to stop! I don’t want to be the reason that we get shot or eaten-

“But you’re tiered.” Abe interrupted.

“I don’t want to continue with a tired person. Besides I thought it would be good to rest my feet anyway.” Abe finished as he grinned and continue making the bed. I was about to contradict with his words, but I figured if he’s going through all this trouble to stop and rest. I might as well accept it. So I shrugged my shoulders and started to make a leaf pile of my own. I was pilling some leaves together when I heard Abe behind me ask,

“What are you doing?”

I turned around and answered,

“I’m making a leaf bed.”

“Umm…” Abe started.

“I was kinda making this bed for you.” He finished.

I was caught off guard, then confused.

“But I thought you were making your own bed” I said pointing to the now finished bed behind Abe.

“No, I was making this bed for you. I was going to watch out for sligs and slogs, while you slept.” Abe explained.

I was shocked. It didn’t even cross my mind that he was doing all of that for ME.

“Oh,” was all I managed to say, as I watched Abe smooth out the leaves.

“Their you go,” said Abe showing me his work of art. I smiled, I never knew ANYone who would even think about doing something like this for me.

“Thank you,” I said in gratitude. Abe smiled with glee, knowing that he did something good. I went over laid down, and to tell you the truth it wasn’t that bad at all. It was pretty comfortable, I was impressed. Abe went to sit on a log that was near by, and watched for sligs and slogs. While I tried to sleep. The sad thing is. I was tired but not tired enough to sleep. I thought maybe I should talk to him, I mean he looks lonely, and I’m not sleepy yet so...why not? Besides we should get to know each other more anyway. After all we are traveling together.

“Umm…Abe?” I started. But I didn’t know what to ask.

“Hmm?” he answered. I half expected for him to say ‘I thought you said you were tiered? Well, if your not let’s keep moving!’ I waited, but he didn’t say that. Nor did he sound annoyed. What do I ask him? I thought. I don’t know anything about him outside the fact that, he was the main character of this game that I play often.

“This bed is very comfortable…” I trailed off, I didn’t know what else to say. But Abe answered

“Yeah, I figured that it should be soft and comfortable so you could sleep well. Oh!” Abe exclaimed, as he turned around on the log he was sitting on.

“I don’t think this whole time I’ve asked for your name! I’m sorry! How rude of me! What is your name?”

“Annie” I said with a smile.

“Ann-ie? That’s an odd name, never heard that before…” I began to think oh great! Now he thinks I’m a freak! My thoughts were interrupted by the finishing of Abe’s sentence.

“…retty name.” my heart stopped. Did he say, what I think he said? I thought thinking it’s not possible. Did he just say PRETTY?

“I’m sorry could you repeat that last part?” I asked hoping that was being delusional.

“I said even though it’s a name I’ve never heard before…” I waited patiently for him to finish. “I also thought it was a very pretty name too.” I never, thought that would come out of his mouth! My face was shocked and red. Wait! Why am I blushing? It’s not like I LIKE him or something?...” so many thoughts went trough my head at the same time; I thought my head was going to explode! Then Abe wanting to continue the conversation and asked

“So…tell me Annie…what your world like? I mean is it anything like mine?” I told my thoughts to shut up in my head before I answered the question asked by the curious Mudokin.

“Well…hmm…how do I explain it?” I thought for a moment, while Abe waited patiently for his answer.

“Yes….and no” I finally answered. Abe looked confused.

“Well…no because theirs no Mudokins, sligs, or slogs. But yes, because there are creatures like them….let’s see….” I thought for a moment.

“Mudokins on my world are called humans. Their basically the same as you but we just look different-

“We?” Abe interrupted.

“Oh! ‘We’ as in I’m human, I am what you would call human.”

“How are we alike?” Abe looked really interested.

“Well…here I’ll show you.” I said as I got up to sit next to Abe on the log.

“Here, hand me your paw” Abe did as I said. I put his hand (well, paw) and my hand together. Abe stared in awe, I smiled.

“See? We use them for the same purposes, we have different names, and they look different, that’s all. Really we’re the same.” It was like I was in a trance in his eyes.

“Wow, that’s…..amazing” Abe said still astounded by the whole thing. I smiled for a moment when I realized I was in a trance I snapped out of it.

“Umm…well…” I don’t know why I was so scared, I just wanted to run and never come back.

“I’d better go to bed now….so…goodnight…” not realizing where I was going I tripped and fell over the log.

“AAHH!!!” their was a thud sound surrounded by leaves moving around where I had fallen.

“Annie? Annie!?!” Abe hollered in worry. I moaned in pain as I sat up. My head hurt a little but not too much. Abe heard me and ran over to see me…at this point I wish he hadn’t.

“Annie are you...”

“Oww! How could I have done that? How is it possible to trip over a log, that I was just-” I had just realized Abe was staring at something. But what I wondered. Then Abe pointed at me and asked

“what is that?” he was pointing below my head. I look down and gasped in horror. my shirt was ripped over my chest….

Abe has seen my bra.
