''Where am i?''
Sitting on the grass, i looked around me. I'm in an unfamiliar place. And of all places i could've been lost it has to be in a forest. But this one seems a little bit strange. Not strange in the way weird, but strange in the way unusual. This forest doesn't seem to be on Earth. His looks is way too mystical.
The color of the leaves are a sparkling green. And the water of the small lake beside me is so clear. I never saw something so beautiful in the 16 years I've been living so far. It's probably a dream, but i can't help but stretched my hand to touch the water. I can feel the liquid run trough my fingers and the sensation feel so real. It's way too real to be a dream. I looked closer the water and what i sees hit the hell out of me. I'm not the reflection or we could say the reflection is not me. My facial features are still the same and i'm still wearing my school uniform. Even my blue eyes are still looking the same. But, why did my hair color has to change. My long red hair became grey. I aged so much. Who would want to marry me now?
Actually is not grey. When looking closely is silver. Silver that looks a bit like blue. I'm not that bad looking again at my reflection. But my hair color flame are still the ones i preferred.
'Okay, stop admiring Amelia!!! Look around. You are lost in this forest. What will grandma think. She must be really worried' I looked at my phone. Thank God the screen is still intact. It's 12:00 a.m right now. But i remembered leaving school at 4 p.m. Does it means i spent the night here? Outdoor? In this forest. What if there were wild beasts? If i'm still alive now it means there is no animals here big enough to eat me. But wild beast or not i need to get out of here and return home.
I didn't go the way i usually take to go home. Only because i wanted to arrived faster to eat my grandma blueberry pie. I can't really blame myself because my grandmother's pastries are the best. So of course i took a shortcut. But curious as i am, i got distracted by a light. It was so blue and unusual that i wanted to take a look. But it suddenly absorbed me and i woke up here. Me, Amelia Oriel is really stupid. How can i just follow something because i thought it was unusual. I'm already 16 this year. Is it maybe because grandmother keep spoiling me that i became like this?
My parents disappeared i don't know where when i was only one. So my mother's mother educated me. When people asked me at school if i ever miss my parents, i say that i don't feel anything. That's why I've been called heartless so many times. But i'm not. They feel like strangers to me cause i don't know them. The only souvenir i have of them is a small picture i have with me everywhere i go. I don't really miss them. Grandmother is always here for me. She always say that there is a solution to every problems. I started crying. First, i didn't make a sound but i eventually cry louder.
I started walking to find a path. When i'll see someone, i'll asked them the way.
'No need to cry Amelia!!! You can do it!!!' I need to think about happy stuffs.
I just finish reading the novel 'Innocent girl as a princess'. It's my favorite novel I've read until now. The female lead living as a commoner meets the 2nd prince when working at a bakery. He became interested in the female lead, so he keeps visiting the bakery every time he could. The female lead fall in love with him when she sees him giving food to a stray cat in the street. You know, the same stories you read in every novels. She married the prince and became a princess. It was less cliche at the end when i read the 1st prince was the queen's child but not the kings. A bastard. So the 2nd prince became the king and a happy ever after story...
''Tmb,Tmb,Tmb''
Did i just heard footsteps. They're coming from the left. I'm heading over there. I was walking few seconds ago but now i found myself running. After all their my only hope to see my grandma again. I'm approaching them...
I suddenly saw 3 mens with weird clothing and they're looking at me as if i was the weird one.
