Where?

Adea

Blinking, the fog lifted and the view I was met with was the sun peeking over the horizon. I stared in awe at the hues of orange and pink that painted the morning sky. Sighing, I resigned myself to my fate. I wouldn’t complain if this was the way I left this world. My chest shuttered and I fought to keep my eyes open..

In my peripheral vision, something was moving towards me and fat. Could I be so unlucky to be alive when an animal found my body? There was no fear as I thought of being consumed by a bear or whatever it was that was coming for me. My chest vibrated as I laughed.

If it was an animal, I’d leave this world as someone’s breakfast. If it was a person, I didn’t know who it could be. I couldn’t think of someone who would run toward me with such urgency.
