Initiation (4)

The size of the plants inside the garden was humongous.

Angele could see tree leaves that were the size of a washbasin and huge sunflowers about the size of an adult.

Angele stepped forward and carefully observed one of the sunflowers. He saw a human face right in the middle of the flower; its eyes were closed, and it wasn’t breathing. Neither eyebrows nor mustaches could be seen. Angele looked around and saw the same faces on all the sunflowers. It was almost as if the face was the flower itself, with petals growing around it.

The path was surrounded by huge sunflowers. He didn’t know when these faces would open their eyes. Just by looking at them, Angele could already feel a chill creeping upon him.

The others didn’t seem concerned about it; only the girl was slightly scared. It was probably that they already knew of the existence of those flowers.
