I decided to search for that lake or pond but my leg was hurting really bad. Should I search for water or try to go out of this forest? I decided to search for water. Then I can wash myself. If I go out looking like this it will be more difficult. Also my arm wound needs to be cleaned. I can't afford an infection right now. But the only problem was the distance. "How far it will be ? I can hear from here means that it will be near. I should start looking for it now , if I rest for too long I won't be able to stand up." That was a worng decision. If I knew what was going to happen I would have decided to rest for a little while.
It took me fifteen minitues to reach that lake. It was a very clean and beautiful lake. I sat down and touched the water. It was warm, refreshing. I decided to take a bath here. I was covered in head to toe in mud. My hair looked like a bird nest. I started to prepare for a bath. The hardest part was taking off my shoes. "It's gonna hurt. Prepare yourself." I gave myself some auto suggestion. It would be great if I can just cut my shoe. But I had no choice. I didn't have another pair of shoes. So no matter how much it hurt ,I had to take it off. Tears fell down my cheeks when I tried to take off my shoe. After some effort I managed to take it off. I soaked my legs in that warm ,clear water. The lake was so beautiful.I felt like finally the storm in my life was coming to an end. But it was just the calmness before another storm.
I slowly got into the lake. I didn't take my cloths off. Who knows whats is this place. I would rather take a bath with my clothes on than being seen by someone. Even though I wasn't sure about the existance of human in this world, I was really shy to take off my clothes in an open place . I opened the hygiene kit in the camping set. I got a soap, toothbrush, toothpaste and shampoo. I really need a shampoo. It took me one hour to complete my bath. I changed into new clothes. I wore a blue shirt and grey denim pant. There was no towel so I left my hair . I applied medicine on my arm. Soaking my legs in the warm water was useful. My leg swelling reduced. It was noon and I was hungry. I decided heat up a meal. Self heating pot is really good for such situation.Easy and fast. After eating I felt really good and energetic. I soaked my leg again in the water. Its water source might be a hot water spring. That's why it was really good for my leg. I was really enjoying. I felt I had nothing to worry. Just me and this nature. It might sounds weird but I really forgot why I was here. My brain couldn't take all those things anymore. So forgot everything just by a little relaxation. I didn't have any idea about time in this world. But this world seems to be like mine. So I guessed it also would have a twentyfour hour day.That means I still have one hour to rest. Although I didn't know how big this forest is and how to get out I wasn't worried. After all those danger I felt I would survive.Also, if I can't get out I would just set up tent somewhere safe. Animals will come to this lake to drink water. So I can't stay here. I was relaxing but an other storm was approching me quietly, calmly which started a new story.
