Cameron just went home that night, but I ran back to my house, to my room. I quickly grabbed my backpack and put on the most comfortable shoes I had. Ready for the journey, I looked at myself in the mirror and smiled. I needed more strength. And in my smile I saw Leon's smile. It gave me courage to leave this house, where all sorts of things had been going on while I was here. But I didn't have time to remember all that and I just walked out of the house.
It was raining heavily today, as it always does. And I regretted not wearing a warm jacket. The cold raindrops immediately made me shiver. The shivering was such that I could hear my teeth banging against each other. Walking through the thick bushes, I tried not to think about how much I was cold. The thunder was too loud that the ground seemed to start trembling too. And when the lightning made everything around me bright, I stopped altogether to see where I was.
