บท 8: 5. Here's a full sandwich ...for me ?
Yuree
The bee didn't look so good . It was slowly crawling on the hay but then it'd stop as if out of breath .
Poor thing !
I was back in my meadow again . I had just thought about the bee on my way home and decided to take a detour .
I was glad I did now . It looked as if the bee was sick . I looked at the jam I had left for it and drew back . It was being eaten by ants . Not fair at all . These ants took all the bees food .
I reached in to my backpack and pulled out my sandwich . I hadn't eaten it today , not because I was not hungry but because of the boys who had kept on harassing me . I had been too busy hiding and barely thought about eating .
" Here you go . That's enough for everyone ." I said breaking the sandwich in to two pieces . I took one piece and placed it where the ants were and the other I placed it by the corner and moved the bee there .
" Now you can all eat . Especially you bee and then you can fly again ." I said smiling , then I felt a chill . The wind was blowing coldly and the sky was a swirling mass of grey clouds . It was supposed to be summer ! Why were there all these clouds and this cold wind ?
" Really strange " I said under my breath then I went to my bike and started riding on my way home .
Hopefully the bee would be alright tommorow .
?????
" Now that is inconspicuous and stylish ." Olibia said swirling around me admiringly . I lifted my hand and touched the black material of the cloak I was wearing . It was nice looking and shined like polished granite . I was wearing the clothes that Olibia had gotten for me , she didn't tell me where from though . All she said was " I got it , that's all matters , cherie ." But what did cherie mean ?
" Okay , now your properly dressed . " She said then frowned , " Oh wait one last thing ." She pulled a black scarf from behind her back . " Use this to cover your mouth , don't ask why . Just do it , believe me you'll want to ."
I took the scarf and rapped it around my neck and used it to cover my mouth . I turned to her for approval and she nodded .
So it was good !
" Now , let's get out of this graveyard before we're tattled on by the corpses and if that happens ...oh void it's too horrible to think . Let's just go ! " She said next to me and I started walking out of the graveyard . It was not too big a graveyard that I couldn't see the exit . I was curious though . What was beyond the graveyard ... what was out there ?
Back in the box all I'd wanted was to get out but now that I was out ...now what ? And my unfinished business , it was the reason I was here ...but I didn't even know what it was . How was I going to get it done ?
So much to think about ... I wish -
" Careful ! " Olibia said grabbing my arm and pulling me away to the side . I looked at what the problem was ... a piece of the fence around the graveyard was broken and the spire for the fence now bent inwards . The spire was also deadly sharp like a spear aimed at the attack . I had almost walked right into it !
" That was close ." Olibia said in relief , wiping her brow with the back of her hand .
" I almost ...died ... again." I said nervously but Olibia shook her head .
" No , you almost ruined that attire your wearing . " She said reproachfully , " watch where your going . That thing was not cheap , you know ."
" I would...not have...died ?" I asked her , and she seemed to chew the question in her mouth before answering .
" No , such normal injuries can not kill you . Because your not really alive , exactly . " She said and then she ... flickered . Like a candle in the wind , she just faded for a second and then reappeared .
" Oh no , I exerted myself ." She said looking at her hands . She flickered again and then reappeared next to me .
" I want you to listen to me very closely , do hear me ?" She said quickly , " I used most of my energy to get you here and the few left I used to save you by going physical for that moment . Now I don't have any much left ,I'll have to go back to the spirit realm and replenish . It may take a day or two but I'll be back . You have to go and find some place to hide . The last soul to return in your state wasn't welcomed by humans in a lovely way . So go and find a place to stay for the next few days . I'll be back , and if you can make some progress on the unfinished business of yours , it would be light sent . So go , I'll be back soon ."
All this had been said in a rush and each second Olibia flickered more and more . Then with a pat on my head she vanished .
I turned around looking for her . She didn't reappear again . I tried to shout out her name but my voice was still raspy and shallow .
So now I am alone , I thought looking at the forest outside the graveyard with apprehension . What would I find out there ? What will happen if I meet someone and they find out I'm not completely alive . Will they really chase me with pitchforks ? The thought made feel afraid but not too much.
Just remember what Olibia said and you'll be fine , I told myself .
Find a place to hide and stay away from people . Right !
I took my first step and entered the world of the living .
Someone left bread pieces in a tire . But why ? I wondered . I'd been walking for awhile . The forest had been cool and shady , filled with so many colors and sounds I had forgotten . I heard birds and saw butterflies on bright flowers . There had been a stag in the woods , it had looked at me with its head tilted to the side . I had been awe struck by it's size and it's majestic horns . What a beautiful animal , I thought but when I started towards it , the animal hopped away . I tried following it but I got lost . I couldn't see the tall buildings in the woods . The tree leaves stopped me from seeing the sky too but I walked on , hoping I would find my way out .
I had .
I had walked out into a clearing , a meadow . There was green grass everywhere and it blew gently in the wind . I had looked around and then I saw the tree on the hill . Since the sun was already going down I thought maybe I could stay here tonight . When I got to the tree I saw it had a tire tied to one of it's branches and there was soft hay inside the tire , along with a some ants and pieces of bread .
" For me ? " I asked out loud .
I picked up one of the pieces and planned to eat it . I wasn't hungry , not at all , I just wanted to put something in my mouth and taste something presides the dirt in my throat .
" bzzzz !" a sound startled me . I looked down at the bread in my hand and saw a little insect on it . It had two wings and was covered in black and yellow stripes . A bee .
Something was wrong with it though .
It crawled and stopped , and then started crawling again . It was dying , I didn't know how I knew but I did .
" Your just... like me." I said to the bee as I placed it back on the hay in the tire .
" Your not... alive and not ...dead too . Just like me , little bee ."
The bee buzzed and buzzed , crawling onto the top of the bread piece and then ...it stopped .
It didn't continue or start moving again . It was dead .
Just like me .
" Like me ... Bee . I'm ...Bee ." I said solemnly . That was my name . Because I was like the bee , not dead and not alive . So that was who I am .
I am Bee .
