I-t... It was eating the fruits from the tree.
I froze.
Mouth agape, as my brain scrambled to process the surreal sight before me.
'What the... Don't tell me the bastard is a vegetarian!'
The thought sent shock rippling through me. For a moment, I didn't know whether to laugh, cry or celebrate this strange revelation.
Shaking my head.
I turned and began the cautious descent down the hill.
'...My work here was done anyway.'
Tok-
Tok-
The thought of falling from such an height sent cold chills slithering down my spine. One misstep, and I'd be nothing more than a mangled heap.
Hence-,
Tok-
Tok-
Each step I took was measured and calculated.
Finally, I made it down the level ground.
And how relieved I was to feel the sand beneath me once again.
"Hah!"
It felt so... great.
And then-,
Shifting my gaze.
