MATED TO LOVE YOU

I heaved a sigh and tried to gasps for air, the rain swept across my face, I didn't know where to run to in the dark with the little child wrapped around me, but I kept hearing strange echos in my head directing me on which part to go. I close my eyes and blurry visions appeared, I could hear their voices coming closer. The child shivered in the cold even though we both wore a raincoat. I began to run again with all the energy I had. I could save a life if I wanted to, and this could be the last time. The sound of a gunshot could be heard, and I knew they were really close now.

Luckily for us, I found a tree trunk on the ground and I crawled inside with the child.

"I'm scared" he suddenly muttered in my ears. He was shaking vigorously and sneezing also. Although, the rain had subsided as it was trickling slowly and thanks to this trunk which was a shield to us. I held his cheeks and tried to tell him something motivational, but rather tears flowed from my eyes.
