WOLF PASSION

Selgie stood up despite everyone laughing at her as if her footsteps were so heavy.

Her body felt numb and her throat choked, as if something was blocking her throat.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Selgie didn’t want to turn her head towards Kelvin or her friends.

Matteo just stared at her.

He never even apologized to her for his actions the other day.

Selgie immediately twisted her body to find another way to escape from everyone’s presence.

Her eyes began to glaze over as she ran quickly away from everyone who was now staring at her departure.

Her four friends were about to chase after Selgie, but Janeeta tried to hold them back, letting Selgie go without them following.

Selgie was running somewhere, not towards her house. To be more precise, it wasn’t her house, but Aunt Wardhani’s house.

The middle-aged woman who had been taking care of her.

Selgie ran and entered the forest.

She ran unconsciously and continued to follow the path that she thought she could pass.

Her tears were already unstoppable, with her breath catching Selgie stopped at a lake in the forest.

This was the first time Selgie set foot into the forest and saw the beauty within.

Her eyes still couldn’t see the beauty in such a beautiful lake. But she could feel the fresh air hitting her beautiful face, her hair fluttering in the wind.

Selgie looked like a princess who had just descended from the sky.

Selgie wiped away her tears, her choked throat now starting to feel better. The silence made her feel that this was indeed the right place for her to be here.

Selgie sat herself down on a large log lying on the ground.

Her tears fell again as she remembered what happened earlier,

many people laughing at her.

Selgie felt intimidated by everyone laughing at her, but what harm could it do if they were like that,

She just wanted to go home, but that man’s mouth hurt.

He shouldn’t have said that to her, in front of everyone.

What was his fault? Why was that man so cruel to her?

She had never bullied anyone, she was just playing around with a man who deserved to be bullied.

If that man wasn’t interested in her, he shouldn’t have been so cruel.

“You idiot… You’re too confident, to the point of embarrassing yourself” Selgie spoke to herself while wiping away the tears that were still running down her cheeks.

She was so embarrassed, she didn’t want to go to school again tomorrow.

Selgie clenched her fists firmly, she would not give up so easily to bring him to his knees.

In return for her heartache today.

Selgie continued to cry throughout the day until the afternoon came.

She realized where she was.

She had no idea where she was, and where she needed to go to get home.

Selgie turned her head right and left, not finding a path that she could walk on.

Which road had she been on before? Selgie had completely forgotten the way home.

Her eyes glazed over, as she tried to walk and trace the path that she could pass through, as there were too many thick weeds.

The road Selgie was walking on was creepy, as it was getting late.

Selgie couldn’t find her way home.

Fear began to creep into her heart, her thoughts getting muddled when she couldn’t find her way home and instead looked back at the lake she had previously visited.

The sound of birds and strange noises began to scare Selgie even more and she kept looking left and right as if she sensed that something was following her.

Selgie was scared when she heard a sound that seemed to be getting closer to her, she immediately walked as fast as she could to get away from the sound that was trying to get close to her and went back to looking for a way out.

The sky was getting darker, but Selgie still hadn’t found a way out.

Her throat was thirsty and her stomach was begging to be filled.

Selgie now looked like a lost child, her favorite pink shoes dirty, her hair wet with sweat that continued to soak her body that had walked through the tall trees, but never found a way out.

Selgie sat herself back down under the roots of a large tree,

Her school skirt was already dirty because Selgie was sitting carelessly.

Selgie hugged herself, the night air made her very cold.

Her body felt weak, she could no longer walk, to find a way out.

Her tears fell again.

Today was the worst day for her, besides being humiliated, she also had to feel lost in the forest.

Would she starve and die here?

Selgie’s mind was in chaos, and she couldn’t think anymore. Only fear enveloped her.

kraakkk!

The sound of a dry tree branch being trampled by something made Selgie jump in surprise.

The sound sounded so clear all around her.

Her eyes tried to look around to find what was approaching her.

She was very scared in case it was a wild animal.

Selgie saw bushes that were swaying on their own while others were not.

Selgie widened her eyes and immediately got up from her seat to run.

Despite her weak body, she still didn’t want to die in the forest.

So Selgie forced her weak body to run away from where she was.

When Selgie had moved away from the place, a cat appeared behind the bushes.

But Selgie was already running and didn’t know that it was a cat.

Selgie kept running until she stepped on something and fell, bleeding from her knee.

“Aw…” Selgie groaned in pain, then looked at the blood on her knee.

‘No! She can’t faint here’ Selgie thought.

Unfortunately, her phobia of blood made her unconscious and throw herself to the ground.

The sound of footsteps began to approach Selgie, who had been unconscious for several minutes.

The footsteps stopped right in front of the unconscious Selgie,

staring at the beautiful face that could not be seen clearly because the moon in the sky had not fully come out, making her vision so dim.
