wing me back into the prison I belongin. I was never destined for this world,was I? It was nothing but the dream of anobody. I′m ready…to go home.***Back to being alone…22***The black goop forms a mouth, ready todevour me.But then, a flicker. Of light…of hope?Behind the black muck, a creature hasyet to be captured by the black corruption.It reaches its arm for me.***“Hey, wanna come along with us? Wewere gonna gather some folks to godown to the cafeteria, and it looked likeyou could use a good lunch after the lastlecture?”“N-no, no need.”***The black mass turns back into thefrightening shadow, determined to deterany creature from befriending me.But…it was if the creature didn′t see theshadow. Or perhaps, it ignored it? Itshand goes through the shadow′s torso,still reaching for me…“Are you sure?”***“A-are you d-deaf!? Yes I′m sure!”***The shadows quadruples in size. It…cannot be stopped. I cannot fight it, Inever could. But the creature′s hand, itdoesn′t stop reaching for me…***“And I′m not blind either, you′re eyeingthat guy′s sandwich as if you haven′t seenfood in ages. If you don′t have the moneydon′t worry, Mark is bragging about hisdad′s fortune, he can easily pay for you,or else I′ll blackmail him to.”“…”“Come on, I want you with us, it′s muchmore fun than sitting alone. But you haveto give me a bone as well.”***H-how could I escape this darkness, thispit of despair.If I′m too scared to take the next step?“…Fine.”***“Fantastic! Glad to have you onboard…uhm, I actually never caught yourname! Embarrassing, anyways, I′m Daniel.”“Sophie.”“Sophie, it′s a pleasure to meet you!”***I finally reach my own hand out, andthe creature lifts me to my feet in one,clean swoop. I look around, and it′s likethe shadow never existed. The forestwas back to normal, the creature prancingabout. Even the crystal ball is in itsrightful place. It still has a few cracks,but somehow, it seems less broken. Ilook back into it and gasp, as withoutthe shadow, I′m finally able to see myself.I was just like every other creaturehere. Without the shadow looming overme, I was finally able to see what it haddenied me for years. Meaning, that justlike every other creature in the forest,I had a place in this world. And I′m notalone.I′m able to move forward…***…Because I have the braveryto take the next stepGyldig studentbevis må fremvises. For vilkår, se pippin.no/student. TM and © 2020 Apple Inc.
