Grandpa walked deeper into the forest, touching and observing things around him. He decided to return home, only to realize that he had forgotten the path he took. Soon, it grew very dark. He used the small lantern he came with and tried his very best to identify the path but failed. It seemed he walked deeper into the forest. Grandpa lay on the soil, feeling tired and thirsty, so he gulped water from his bottle and decided to take a nap.566Please respect copyright.PENANAH6LhRUsQHK

Some hours later, he perceived strange sounds. He opened his eyes but couldn't see a thing, so he drifted into a slumber. Moments later, he heard sounds of horses and carriages and slightly opened his weak eyes. He saw small light from far away. He kept mute, in fear for it could be soldiers or the noble-men.566Please respect copyright.PENANAXY2h6MUDbm

There was silence after a while. Grandpa walked towards the path the horses might have walked through. That's when he observed the light. It was a small, orange light. It looked more of fire so he gathered courage and walked to it, hoping to meet somebody there.566Please respect copyright.PENANANA08tNyVdL

“Hello!" He called but there was no answer. "Anybody there to help an old man like me?"566Please respect copyright.PENANA7iyB7DgC5K

The light suddenly disappeared. Grandpa used his torch, but he couldn't see anything or anyone.566Please respect copyright.PENANA0Y7PSZfaDq
566Please respect copyright.PENANAm3Iwa167Rr
Grandpa groaned and tossed on the grass, feeling sad and hating himself for coming to the forest.566Please respect copyright.PENANAV41HfCcmjq

The orange light appeared again. It wasn't as huge as it was before and this time, it was yellow and not orange.566Please respect copyright.PENANAgl0zGEzmdW

Grandpa instantly ran towards it as fast as he could which enabled him to see the light very closely. Soon, he was just a few feet from it. "Anybody there to help an old man like me?" He realized something lay on the ground and that the light came from it.566Please respect copyright.PENANAN54ntzo0iH

He was scared to touch it, but after a possible while, the fear faded so he gently touched it and found it was a human body.566Please respect copyright.PENANA3LY0Z6lMCi

He brought the lantern very close to the face. It was a young girl, about ten years old. Pale, white, wet red hair, even her robe was wet.566Please respect copyright.PENANAgqvkH9GIfJ
566Please respect copyright.PENANA7i9CRV5AOz
The light disappeared, but he used the lantern he had which lighted the dark surrounding. Was it a dead or alive body, he wondered.566Please respect copyright.PENANAx3dnCsz2BC
566Please respect copyright.PENANA5Hch8Edm3z
He was curious to know how the mysterious girl found herself there. Could it be that she was thrown outside on purpose or was she lost and never found by her people?566Please respect copyright.PENANAAPAKkeyqMa

The sun glowed lightly on the lofty trees. But it didn't touch grandpa nor the innocent girl's pathetic face as the tall trees provided shade for them.566Please respect copyright.PENANAZWphJbx4Vn

Grandpa stared at her for a while.566Please respect copyright.PENANAZqBeuUp7Mj
566Please respect copyright.PENANAc4K6mc6lUO
She had red hair. Her eyes were closed so he couldn't see the color of her orbs. Her skin was as white as milk, she was a very lovely girl. Grandpa kevins couldn't leave her there, so he took her with him and started the journey back home. Lucky for him, he was able to recognize the path that led home.566Please respect copyright.PENANAEQ8VZN1HoH

Within some hours, he found himself some meters away from the insignificant village.566Please respect copyright.PENANAtyTrNMoapP
