Thinking About A Plan
"You are right," I nodded in agreement, "I'll do my best then."
It came down at the end to me. I got to solve all this and lead everyone to victory.
It was just like what she already said earlier, it was all down to me to carry them all towards the end. And for a moment there, I couldn't tell if she was joking or telling the truth from the beginning.
Or she just got a bit lucky or something.
"I'll go now tiger to do my stuff. Make sure to give them hell. At the end of all this, we can all sit around the fire and celebrate our victory, laughing to our heart's content about all this."
"Sure, good luck," I didn't know why but for a moment there, she changed. She looked a bit mature, more mature than what I initially thought or knew about her.
For a reason, I felt like she got something taken off her chest when she heard about what I learnt. She looked as if what I said gave her a final hope, a glimpse of hope of getting freed from all this hell.
