Whats a girl to do... « Thread Started on May 24, 2007, 2:12pm »
Jahara paced in front of the barracks her bare feet padding the ground silently. The hot desert sand had cooled in the evening though it still held much of its heat. The dark skinned girl saw a small lizard basking as she watched she saw its dark belly rise and fall as it breathed. Breathing....She let out her own breath she had been holding. Why did she feel so nervous it was awkward. She was not supposed to be out past evening but as the sky grew dark with shades of purple and blue she wondered if she ever really cared whether the guards found her or not. She finger combed her long hair in which she had let out of her scarf. She didnt do this often. Sitting she let her hands drift making small writing symbols in the sand. When she was finished she had written something that surprised even her.
SAVE ME
Why had she written that and what exactly was she supposed to be saved from. This life, this world, herself? As she pondered these questions she stared at the evening sky wishing the stars to show their faces. And soon they would.
