Chapter 1
I fell down and my eyes closed very fast…everything became dark and I just could hear his voice telling them:"we finally caught her here. She is real and I am the most intelligent Lord, Aren’t I?" He started laughing very loudly and I Could not hear anything anymore since then!
Winters all were cold and dry every year...No snow and no happiness as well. But I didn’t know that this winter is chosen to be different. I do not mean it will be just snowy,no! I didn’t know that It will be a bloody snowy winter!
Well as all PlayStation games show us there must be zombies or monsters to make a slaughter but it is not like this…life is not a PlayStion4 game. It is real and this reality makes it harder. But who knows the only reality that exists is Earth?
Gosh, I was a person exactly like you…at least until one month ago. I think it was December. I was 24 years old and I had a job in post office center in Manitoba and My salary was good and I loved my job, my city, even my neighbors…they were great but unfortunately I made a mistake and that was having a belief. the reality is this and no more. so one year ago I tried to save my life and found a job. My interview went very well and I became a postwoman. Please memorize this sentence because all started by this point of my life, being a postwoman! well I need money to live in this real world. Memorize this sentence too because maybe you are all thinking the same as me. I prove you that there is a harder reality beyond being poor or having Not enough money! Let me remember that day and start the novel.
I am home now and I open the refrigerator and take the bottle of soda. It is really cold and I cannot stay out anymore. I’ve delivered all letters and packages to their owners and now I am home to eat dinner. I live in a small house and I have just rent it a few months ago. I am totally sure that you want to know my name. Of course I have a name the same as all people on Earth but my name is somehow strange. Well my name is Myth and each time I asked my mother why she chose this name for me she denied to answer and said your father chose this name for you and I don’t know why! You must know that when I was in my mother’s tummy my father died by a car accident so this question was and will be unsolved forever and do not ask me why I have such a strange name because I myself don’t know the reason!
I sit on the sofa and start eating the pizza which I bought on my way home. I turn on the TV to watch weather channel. The news reporter is announcing that tomorrow will be snowy and it will rain heavily. Damn it, it means I will have a hard working time tomorrow but I am ready because I really do not want to be fired. I change the channel and nothing attracts me so I turn the TV off and lie on the sofa. I am deeply thinking about the pregnant woman whom I saw today. I am sure she is not my friend. I’ve had a package for her and she became happy after receiving it. I remember She exactly said: Oh Myth, that is, you! Thanks for delivering this package.It is filled with some Toys for little Rosy. I gave her a piece of paper to sign it and asked: Sorry lady but how do you know my name? She smiled and signed the paper then returned it and said:" Don’t you remember the last time we met, you had a letter for me! You are too busy these days I think." She smiled again and said:" Anyway, thanks for the package, bye!" She closed the door very fast….and I was definitely sure that I do not remember her at all! People are strange these days!
I look at the clock. It is 11:55 pm again. The moment that I always feel nervous is exactly this time…maybe I have Cinderella phobia…I always feel that one day something important will happen in in my life at this hour but instantly I remind myself that it is just a story and we are all living in a real world. I fell asleep and it started snowing more and more, as much as it covers all the story hidden inside.
Diiiiiiiiiiiing,Diiiiiiiiiing,Diiiiiiing,Diiiiiiiing .I wake up scared and try to find the clock. I could not see very well. Where the hell is it? I get up to find the clock under the sofa unwillingly but it is not there. I remember that I put it under the sofa, last time but I don’t know where it is right now. Come on, the noisy clock. I check around but no sign of it. I close my eyes to concentrate on the source of the noise and I feel it is from the bathroom. what? I go to the bathroom instantly and I feel a very cold breeze as I open the door. Who left the window open?Not me! After closing the window, I see the clock in the sink…. what is it doing here? What a strange morning.
I pick the clock up and turn it off. Its somehow wet! Damn it. It is 7 A.m. I return to my room and throw the clock on the bed. I must eat breakfast before going to work. I go to the living room first and then to the kitchen which is located in the south corner of the living room. A very small cozy house. The coffee is going to be ready after a few minutes and until then I will eat some bread and cheese the same as always. Today I do not feel very hungry maybe just because it is too cold. I hate the cold weather although many people out there love it and now they are very happy to see it is snowing.
The vapor coming from the hot coffee is enough to make me feel calm, although I started my day very harshly and still I don’t want to think about the logic of what I saw this morning. I drink the whole coffee slowly and then return to my room to change my dress and be ready for a long working day. I open the closet to dress for work. After getting ready I put my left hand in the left pocket of my coat to find the keys of my motorcycle but I find a piece of paper instead. I do not remember it was here last night! Have I got mad or something during the night? A sentence is written on the paper. Your dress will be ready on Wednesday 10th of January (Shiny dry center)
Oh, I forgot everything about that dress which became dirty on that rainy day. It was last week. Today it is ready and I must take it back. Good, but where are the keys.My motorcycle key, the house key and one secret key which belongs to somewhere that I only know it. What an irritating morning!
I search inside the little box which is put on the table but nope, they are not there.It is a hide and seek morning I think. Oh I see my poor broken laptop which is left on the table for many days and still I do not have enough money to repair it. I must hide it until I save enough money before that I feel terrible each time I see it. Well my laptop is my best friend from the time I left my old city and my family which only includes my mother in order to find a job and have a better life. Manitoba is great but sad. That is the complexity which I cannot explain until you visit here as a single lonely person. Gosh, the keys were left on the small table near the bed? I grab the keys and try to find my bag pack. I see it leaned the wall. I take it very fast and I want to leave the room but something made me take everything which happened since the morning more serious. THE CLOCK WAS NOT ON THE BED!
