Another night under the trees. I want to sleep, to escape into dream world, but my mind won’t allow me.
I feel his eyes on me. I turn and he is there.
"You know what I don’t like about the forest?" I say in a quiet voice, "You can’t see the stars."
"Follow me" he says.
I do. He takes me right into the thick of the beautiful trees.
We come to an opening… a cliff overlooking a lake. The expanse is breathtaking. Below, surrounding the lake, as far as you can see, are trees.
"My favourite place." he whispers.
I slowly start walking to the edge of the cliff and stop. He takes a few steps behind me. I feel a slight breeze on my face, as I stare into the lake below. Two thoughts run through my head.
"Will you stop me?"
