Caged ( Survival ) Time.
>* There will always be a way out. *****------- Mia -------It's already the fifth day since we've been in the forest.I knew the path we took would be long... But I never would have thought it would be this long... So long that I couldn't comprehend it any more. Though it looked like we've gotten to the middle of it, it seemed like it never ends. Somehow... We found water and wild fruits which we've been surviving on. During the day we continued our journey, while at night we lit campfires while we rested to keep the wild animals away.Speaking of wild animals we haven't encountered any. They are meant to be in the forest, right?Or perhaps they just aren't in the side of the forest we are threading.Or is there any other explanation for that? Not that I want to encounter any... I am just feeling amazed at the realization that we haven't encountered any of them despite being this deep into the forest. As the day's rolled by, the only thing that keeps me going are the w

>* God is always on time. *****While they were resting that evening... Mia screamed out loud all of a sudden as she felt a sharp pain on her right leg. " Ouch. "Her scream attracted the others attention and they quickly stood up and gathered around her." What happened, Mia? "" It's a snake... See it. " She screamed out in pain as she pointed at the green snake which camouflaged among the grasses. " Oh my. " Angelina bursted out as she stormed after the snake. In the meantime, the others checked out Mia's wound." Oh no... It's deep. "" Yeah... What should we do? " Clover inquired worriedly. She was so flustered and worried that if it weren't for the wound on Mia... One might have mistaken her for the injured one. " I think we should tie her legs just above the wound... "" Okay. " Deborah immediately tore her dress and did as, Felicia said." What should we do next? " Clover inquired... Panickly...Watching her best friend in pain was like knife stabs on her chest as

>* It's going to be fine. *****---- Mia -----I rested my head on the tree branch as I pondered on what happened barely two hours ago. Deborah died because of me.Just like Sasha did. Though a lot of people might count me as lucky for having lots of people give up their lives willingly for me. But I don't.It sucks actually. I am just human... Why do people have to die over and over again for me?Why? I know I am the chosen one, but I am meant to serve and not the other way around right? So why? Why do I have to experience this?It sucks... It really does. I feel very guilty...More than ever. Deborah had to die just for me to stay alive. Why?Because, I was the leader.But it doesn't make any sense at all! It doesn't.I don't want to be alive knowing people will keep dying for me!I don't! Even Jesus, my savior came to the world to serve and to die! And not the other way around.So why am I different?Why?" Mia... I know what you are thinking. " I heard, Angelina

>* Take heart. God is still in control. *****------ Mia ------We continued our journey in the forest and by the seventh day, I could already see the end of the forest at a distance. It was just a matter of time till we got out of the forest. While we jubilated that we'll be out soon... Something unusual happened. It began to rain heavily... It was so heavy that I wondered if the heavens had been opened all of a sudden to rain. We hid under a large tree as we cuddled to escape the cold. For some reason, Angelina served as a source of warmth.Unlike the others who were feeling extremely cold... She was not... Instead, she was feeling the exact opposite. " Are you okay, Angel? " I couldn't stop myself from asking amidst the shivering. " I am. Why? " " You are hot, girl! "" Well... That's my normal body temperature... You just didn't notice. " she replied naturally. " Um... Weird. "" Still... You are enjoying it! " Angel retorted." Weird things are meant to

>* Recovery is by force. *****------ Angelina ------As we approached the end of the forest on the eight day, I felt joyful so joyful.I recalled how I felt years ago,when I had to leave the kidnappers den myself. Then since it was only me, I spend close to twenty one days just wandering in the forest. But I guess that was also due to the weather and the depth of that forest which was totally unlike this. " Wow... I can't believe we are almost out already! It feels totally good to be true! " Sarah exclaimed joyfully." Indeed... It feels so good. " Felicia joined in. At that point, my eyes met with Mia's and what I saw in her gaze stunned me. Did I just see doubt and unsureness in those orbs of hers?I thought to myself.Normally since we were almost out, I would have expected, Mia to be as joyful as me and the others. But why? Why is she being so doubtful?Why?" Mia? " I called silently to her.She shook her head as a sign for me to hold my peace. I was surprised, wha

>* God will make a way. *****----- Richard. -----I always thought I had everything completely planned out; my life, family, career and so on.I knew I wasn't the most righteous man on Earth... But I believed I was trying my best. I held my children with a disciplined hand so they won't go astray... That's the right to do right?Maybe I didn't completely do the right thing. As I lost my last son in the process of seeking perfection from everyone of my children. But that shouldn't be my fault, right? If I had kept him with me, he would have dampened my reputation right?Or so I thought. " Richard... You are wrong. " " What do you mean bishop? " I inquired of the man in front of me. I had come to church that Sunday just to confess all my sins and to talk to the Bishop about my thoughts and dreams. Because over the past Few weeks, I have been having this horrible night mares about highschool girl's being kidnapped, sold out as prostitutes, being murdered and so on. And for

>* God forgives. ****** Happy sixty chapters, guys! *---- Richard ----I have never cried so much in my entire life, not even when I broke my leg as a seven years old child, and had to be taken to the hospital where my leg was fixed back in place. Though the process hurt a whole lot, but I didn't cry as much as I was expected to. I guess this was attributed to the fact that right from a young age... My Dad always told me that, real men don't cry... Even in pain. Only the women who are weak cries. So any guy that cries would be seen as a woman and would definitely be mocked for being so weak. So yeah... I didn't cry.But today... I just couldn't stop the tears. It's said that men don't cry.... I always believed this. But today, I realized that men do cry. Why won't we? Even Jesus cried at lazarus' tomb.So if Jesus being the son of God and the second person in the holy Trinity could cry. What's more me, A mere dust? I realized that there are situations where letting out

There were lots of questions on my mind that needed answers.. yet I got none. All I could remember was the blast and everything went completed blank. " What happened actually? Were we attacked?

>* You are beautifully and wonderfully made by God. *****---- Mia. -----" Then it was your character that made me stay. " He continued while I listened. " But most people believe I am too proud. " " You aren't, Mia. They only think that way because they are envious and couldn't get what they want from you. "" Um... So what gave you the motivation to stay even when I tried pushing you away? " I thought on the not so good days, when all I just wanted was for him to get out of his life, I was tired of him following me around like a puppet.
