Story (I)

I was rooted to the spot when I heard his words. Was I really a fool all this time? Getting confused by something so common?

I shook my head and looked at the man before me, who again turned around and was lost in some thoughts. I stood quietly while my gaze was fixed on him for some time before my eyes scanned the surrounding forest.

I arched my brows when I saw the forest. Isn't this the same forest I saw in those memories?

My eyes were drawn back to that man again, who was still looking lost. But suddenly, I heard his voice in my mind.

"You are right, this is the same forest,"

My brows furrowed as I looked at him.

"Out of all the places, why did you choose this place?"

He turned around to look at me before his eyes observed the forest before he said, "You should have seen this forest in this memory, right?"

I nodded when I heard his question.
