I don't like forests or I could say I hate it. It's normally scary even if it's not night time.

The tall trees cover the sunlight, turning the sea of forest into the twilight zone.

I hate to imagine if I had to go in there alone. Surrounded by the tall trees, no sight of people. The bird's cry is echoing in my ears.

The insects scream. And the dirt's smell made me sick. These things could make anyone hallucinate even how brave you are, even if you have never used the drug before. When you are alone, you are just a prey for the unseen hunter in the forest.

You have no hope...

And here is why I hate it so much. I can't tell if I am losing my mind. Everything I see is so real. Is there someone between the trees far away from here? I might imagine something safe to keep my sanity at a normal level. However, I'm afraid it's just an illusion. I don't want to walk there to check what I saw. But yet, if it's really someone there, I could feel relief...

But the silence interrupted as I'm about to walk because someone found me in the forest and took me home after that.

Before I leave, I look back to make sure what I see is really there or not.

It's gone...

It was my imagination, I'm sure...

Yes, I'm sure...

But why do I feel like something is watching me?
