I Was A Lonely Hunter That Day

I walked in an empty space and suddenly found a strange door in front of me. Its color was dark-blue, smaller than the USA’s white house door but taller than my dorm’s. Nothing’s special in this door but it had a magical power that attracted me to move closer. First, I tried to hold it on but it had no handle at all. I could only take a look at that and suddenly there was a blast of wind which opened the door and then I lost my way and didn’t know where I was. It was really a strange place which full of old trees, I didn’t know what tree it was but there was a tree which had huge green leaves. Then, when I looked at the tree, its leaves fell onto the ground slowly. I walked a few steps and got closer to it, I felt as if I was in an autumn in Jerusalem. Even though in fact, I didn’t know that Jerusalem had an autumn in a year or not.

                Then, I tried to take a leaf and smell it. I smelled an odd scent which made me feel a little dizzy, then I threw it away. I kept on walking around and tried to find my way back, but I suddenly heard a bird was singing. It sounded as if the bird wanted to welcome my arrival to this strange new world. I looked around and saw the big beautiful singing bird. Oh God, I’ve never seen such a bird before! Its eyes stared at my eyes intently; its fur was dense and iridescent too; its wing told me how courageous it was. Unfortunately, when I strode slowly and tried to get closer to that bird, it flew away and left me alone in a lonely space. At that time, I felt that myself was like a lonely hunter who hunted on a lonely hill. I cried out loud and kept on walking around the lonely world but I felt something’s strange under my feet.

                I suddenly lost my footwear, so I was forced walked on my bare feet. I continued my journey and surprisingly, in every footprint I left planted so many green grasses. I felt like as if I had a magical power who could make something grow only by my feet. But after all, I was really so lonely at that time, all I could do was just to keep walking around and hope I could find my way back home. After having walked a few hours, I arrived at a wide desert but I didn’t find any camel at all. It was so hot and I started to feel so thirsty, but how could I find waters of the spring in a desert like this? I fantasized that there was an Ice cream vendor came with his “ice cream anthem” to me, but it could not heal my thirsty. I decided to take a rest for a while but suddenly there was a strange sound called me. I looked around but I didn’t see anything. That sound kept calling me and then said “hey fucking jackass, you can not run away from here!”

                That sound gave me a real scare! I was really afraid and so limp, I wanted to scream out loud but I could not. Until I finally fell into the desert, I suddenly felt so cold and another astonishment was the snow falling into the desert. I shivered because of the snow which was like a snow on the Sahara. I looked through the sky and saw how the snow fell to pierce myself. I felt that my tears rolled down on my face and portentously, when I was asleep I saw my mother came closer to me. She ran her hands through my face, she gave her most beautiful smile and told me, “Don’t be afraid my son, I’m here with you. Now, close your eyes and let’s get out of here!”

                I closed my eyes and didn’t know what happen then, but when I opened my eyes I was in my room. Oh God, It’s only a dream! I felt so lonely in an empty space, got a real scare, saw the snow fell on the Sahara and finally saved by my mother. It was all just in my dream! Yes, it was absolutely a fantastic and horrible journey but that’s enough. I don’t want to be a lonely hunter who hunts in a lonely hill anymore.
