Or should I say, internationally chasing me down the road and pretending it's an accident?

I can't understand why all of that happened. Did I do something to anger someone or something?

Because of my concern, I didn't offend anyone. As far as I can remember, I didn't do anything to anyone.

I just realized Macey's pause. When I looked back at him, sweat was already dripping down his forehead and cheeks. "A-aya, I'm tired." She stammered when he said that he was tired.

It's okay... "Rest a bit. I mumbled.

I squatted to let myself breath. My heart was beating fast when I ate it. Even Macey was out of breath as well.

I let it pass for a few seconds before I took Macey's hand again. He nodded at me as a sign that we were going to continue running.

From a distance, I could hear a few shouts and screams of the ones with us.

"Let's go." I stammered.

We took the bumpy road again.

We passed some towering trees and came up with weeds on the edge.

From time to time, I hear screams and shouts, so I'm just so nervous. I no longer knew what was going on with them.

I shrieked when I stumbled upon a tree root crawling on the ground.

I was flattered in my mind.

"Aya!"

I let go of Macey. She came back to me again. She knelt in front of me and forcefully pulled my arm to help me stand up.

"Ouch!" I groaned in pain. My heel is bleeding as well as three of my toe fingers. Maybe I just had a bad concussion, so I was injured. Some of my toes were injured.

"Thank you." I almost whispered

I forced myself to stand up and keep my balance. Macey tried to lead me even though it was very difficult.

I can't put my weight on her.

She's just a little kid.

I almost choked when I forced myself to step on my foot. But I put up with it.

Soon, I became accustomed to the pain and agony. I was able to take a quick step. I feel like my body has just become numb from the pain of some of my previous wounds since the day before.

Fortunately, I saw in the distance three tall trees that seemed to be embracing each other.

It looked like a shelter. "Baby, let's stop running for a bit." Let's go there." I showed him what I saw and we could shelter temporarily.

He picked me up and led me there. I feel fine. I can hardly feel the pain of my wounds and scars.

I feel numb.

Is it the amount we have gone through in the past day and the fatigue we have experienced?

I'm not surprised that I can hardly feel the pain anywhere in my body, even if it has a scar or bruise.

I saw large leaves just at the foot of the trees.

I took them and made a barrier in the opening of the three trees where we would take shelter.
