TACKLING MAYA II

Maya took a deep breath in and out, and in again; her thoughts, a reeling mess as she contemplated on how to answer Emma's question, without sounding like a monkey in a zoo. She had to tell a story the human could believe.

"Ok, Well…" She started off, hoping that Sia, her wolf, would help her on the way.

"..that day when you had come to the house to see Melvina.."

"Just skip to the part where we had entered the forest." Emma said, interrupting her.

"Okay..." Maya stuttered, about to continue with her tale, when all of a sudden it dawned on her that Emma had just mentioned 'the forest'. The redhead wasn't supposed to know that since she had lost her memories. She thought, aware of the fear that was gnawing deep within her. If Emma had really regained her memory, then they all would be in a lot of trouble. She hoped that her friend had heard the 'forest' from someone else, not from her memory.
