'RUN!'
Taylan and Myla ran hand in hand with each other, out of breath. Myla did not even know where they where headed. She only realised their detour when she and Taylan crashed into a bush. In Myla's he'd she was not pleased at this realisation. She had loathed her time in the forest and did not want anything that would remind her of it, let alone physically relive it.
'Damnit!'
'What?! What is going on?!'
'NO!' Myla let out with a sob.
This made Taylan become intensely concerned.
'Myla! What the hell is going on!? Say something! Are you hurt?! And where does it hurt exactly!?'
Myla failed to answer Taylan. The only sound that managed to slip out of her partially salivating mouth, was a sob and the sound of her nostrils retracting their mucus. This only heightened Taylan's anxiety and did the contrary for his patience.
'MYLA! Come on! What is going on?! Talk to me!'
This is when bits and bobs of language came back to Myla's mouth.
'I... I ...I...just... can't..'
'Can't what?! What Myla?!'
This time she broke out into a full cry.
'I just cannot go back to the forest! I can't! I won't!'
Taylan was majorly confused.
'Why? And what makes you think we are going back to the forest?'
'I...I...I just thought... it's because we landed on some greenery and then I assumed...'
Taylan let out a chuckle.
'Oh you silly. We just landed on a small wild flower bed that is on the side of the outer perimeter of the train tracks. Trust me , we won't be going back to the forest in no time.'
Taylan sealed this off with a hug and they both laughed it off .
'Come on. We have to get going, if we want to get you out of here in time. We only have one more hour and a few minutes remaining. We better make the most of it.'
'Sure. Of course.'
'First we need to get off this side bush and continue to advance North East. Clear?'
'Clear.'
'Alright . Let's get cracking.'
They did as planned and began advancing North East. They trudged for a good hal of an hour, until the fencing of their destination became visible on the horizon.
'Look! Myla ! Look we are here!'
A puzzled Myla brought her head up to normal level to confirm Taylan's statement.
'What!'
Mya let out, out of suprisement.
'We are here! '
Taylan repeated in a joyful spirit and with a smile in between it all.
'I said we are here. Now it's only a matter of getting you on any departing plane.'
'How will we do that?'
A troubled Myla queried.
'You! Can leave that up to me. Just do as I say and trail my every step.'
And so Myla did.They hastily ran up to the fence , but to Myla's suprise bullets started raining on them. She looked at Taylan to see his calm reaction to the situation, indicating that he most possibly knew that this was coming their way. Taylan proped Myla on his shoulders and onto the fence. She climbed until she was at the threshold and threw herself over without any hesitation. Taylan followed suit. Once they were both over they resumed their run. To Myla it seemed as though they were heading to the hangar ,but soon discovered she was sorely mistaken. A plane was actually taxing out of the hangar and Taylan dew them close to it, despite having a whole pail of bullets thrown their way all this time. Immediately after they were situated near one of the tyres of the plane , the bullets seized.
'So what now?'
'Now you will shimmy yourself into the plane through the opening that is above the tyre. Come on.'
'Okay.'
They got down to it like a retired dancing duo retracing their their award winning dancing steps. Myla on top of Taylan as if he were a ladder and onto the massive tyre. She then climbed the proportionately large steel that assisted in suspending the tyre to the ground. Once she made it to the top of the steel post she shimmied herself into the minute opening. Once inside , Myla assessed her new surroundings. She blurted out that it was safe and then only when she did not get her response did she realise that she was all alone . There was no Taylan. She immediately scrambled to her entrance to try and see if he was on his way up, but to her disappointment there was no Taylan in sight. Only then did it sink in to Myla that this was her journey alone. She realised that they had just had their final departure from one another and they didn't stop to think to say their final goodbyes properly.She realised that she did not take the time to stare at him and imprint his face and final expression into her brain. She realised that this was it. This was the final exit from his life and with this realisation she automatically began shouting his name on the too of her lungs until her face became red and she passed out.
Myla gained consciousness after a very long time. The details of earlier came rushing back into her brain like intrusive guests. All she wanted was for this to become some bad dream which she would wake up from in any minute. She sat there , staring at the ceiling of the plane whilst tears cascaded down her cheeks. A huge pang in her heart kept her stream of tears continuously flowing. It hit her , after a few , that she in actual fact was mourning her friendship with Taylan. More than that she was mourning her undisclosed feelings for Taylan. They were to forever be incarcerated in the chambers of her heart. She would never get to know how he also felt about her.
Myla repeatedly questioned herself as to why was it that she didn't take atleast one second whilst they were under the shelter of the plane to reveal this to Taylan. How could she have not realised that that was the last time that they would ever set eyes on each other.
Myla's train of thought was disrupted by the sounds of beaps and voices. She figured that this was her cue to flee the plane once and for all. She exited the same way she entered and headed straight for her house.
In the days following her successful return home Myla reported to her seniors as to what occurred on their failed mission and it was established that she was the sole survivor of the whole ordeal. She received honourary medals for her bravery , but Myla did not feel do brave . She had failed at one task and that task was about breaking her friendship with Taylan into a romance.
