December 14th..
I wake up early, made breakfast for me and my friend.
Garry wakes up and said.
"Oh, finally I am not the one who does the work."
"Yeah, I am tired of your black burned toast.." I replied.
"You like them. Huh.. Coffee is ready?"
"It's on the table."
We eat it all, drink our coffee and don't say a word after that.
Then, I prepare to go outside, putting on my coat.
"Don't forget to go get some wood. John."
I nod and closed the door.
I took the time to rethink my situation. I though, maybe I could stay here the whole winter?
Mmh, it's an option. But my car.. I need to remove the snow on it.
And make sure it can start again.
Don't want my beautiful car to broke because of this cold weather.
So, I finally decided to went back to where I left it.
The ice under the snow prevent me to sink in it.
The wind blows, and the sky is grey.
As I approach the forest, I look at the cabin in my back.
Not sure if I want to venture again in this place, but without thinking too much.
I go in.
Nothing seem to happen as I walk in the forest, then..
A white rabbit stop infront of me.
I look at it, not sure if I should continue or watch.
But suddenly a beast runs in and bite the rabbit..!
Then it goes away as soon as it came out from no where.
I almost panick, I look at the direction where that legendary beast goes out..
But no sight of it.
The blood where the poor little rabbit was, is still fresh on the snow.
I go around the blood, and keep going somehow.
After that, I reach the end and look where my car was supposed to be.
But can't see it.
"Damn.. I should have bring a shovel.." I said out loud.
My car is under that snow now, and it sure will break if I do nothing.
Then I decided to check somewhere I though maybe there was a shovel.
I remember when I was driving, there was an abandoned barn.
And walk to that place.
It was not very far, but still alittle trip to come by.
When I got there, I open up the broken door and it fell off.
*Crack*
I inspect the place and step in the only room where I see a large locked chest.
The lock is rusted, I look at my right and see a big old wrench.
I precise my swing and strike the lock.
*Bing*Bing*Bing*
*Snap*
The lock is down on the floor, and I open up the chest.
Feeling like a pirate.. I found what I was looking for, and smile.
A good well preserved large shovel.
And there was other tools, but I didn't bother.
I take it and go out of there.
Then as soon as I walk where my car was.
I see a truck coming in the distance, I hide instantly.
I wait, for around 5 minutes..
The truck pass by, and didn't notice me.
I dunno why I hided, it's just my instincts told me to do so..
And now, time to dig up my car.
Ahh.. Alright.
Half an hour and I am almost done. I make sure to not dig every spot, so nobody could saw where the car was.
And then, I open up the car to get inside.
As I close the door, I have this feeling. Like if it seems as I was ready to go..
I.. Put on the safety belt..
And start the engine, it took three times.
But it started for a short moment.
Then it stopped.
I sigh and go outside, I open up hood and check what doesn't work.
It might be the battery.. I hope not..
So I try to restart it..
Over and over..
Then it worked.
I put the seat belt and push the pedal.
*Vvrrrr*
"Good to see you too, my babe.." I say that to my car.
I move the car just a bit, to see if her wheels can go on.
And she does.
I stop the car, and think..
Is it time to go?
Should I get out of here?
Garry is waiting for me.. He can't live by himself..
Then my final though comes in..
Am I ready to go?
And I answer myself..
No.
I stop the engine and remove the belt.
I sighed deeply..
And finally get out of my car.
Another truck pass by, without seeing me.
Then, I return to Garry's cabin.
With the wood of course.
"Hey, it's almost night. Did you got in any trouble?"
"No.." I say alittle bit disappointed.
I put the wood in the container, and place some tinders in the fire that is close to die.
"Mmh, I see.." Says Garry a tad worried.
"The dinner is on the table." He says too.
"Thanks Garry."
And the night started soon after that.
I wasn't really sure if I made the right choice, but I dunno..
Maybe after the winter..
I will return in Big City.
