Trail Pt II: (Breathing)
After Emilin got off her phone, she was finally able to take a good look at the view in front of her.
The sun had yet to rise and so it was still rather dark, but it was illuminated enough that she could see her surroundings without having to use her own light source. There were a couple of lights in the distance, coming from the flashlights of those who treaded in front of her and had already left her behind.
There were also the lights that came from behind her, from the buildings that had already opened before sunrise.
Emilin straightened up her back and looked up at the path that she was going to be taking. With a deep breath, Emilin pushed the inside of her bag straps with her thumbs, getting a firmer grip on everything she was carrying with her.
She felt like nothing that had troubled her in her past mattered at this moment.
Only the path ahead was of any importance.
