Day one, the fear of the unknown

Next Chapter

I'm so cold, I'm so painful, I'm so hungry. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

This feeling makes me feel fortunate again.

At least I'm alive.

When the cruise ship capsized, I was forced to jump into the icy sea.

The coldness that penetrated deep into the bone marrow is still fresh in my memory.

Then I grabbed a plank and it took me for a long time, and then I stiffened and I couldn't remember anything.

I want to sleep now, my eyelids are so heavy.

The tumbling stomach didn't even agree to such a small request.

The sound of the sea was like a lullaby, and I wanted to fall asleep.

Eventually, I opened my eyes.

Indeed, as I expected, my whole body was soaked in the sea, washed and shaken like a plank.

I don't know how long it took, but it took absolutely all my strength to finally leave the icy waters.

Although I should have moved no more than ten meters, at least I was lying on dry sand now.

The sun warmed the sand, and the intense exhaustion made me fall asleep again.

When I woke up again, it should be afternoon, it was so hot.

I have a hunch that if I don't leave here, I'll be roasted.

The instinct to survive made me stand up.

But my body kept resisting my command.

I was so thirsty, I felt like my throat was about to burn and my lips were cracked.

I'm so hungry, I wish I could have a bowl of rice, no, even ten......

My skin, muscles, and bones hurt so much.

There seem to be a few tall coconut trees not far away.

Finally, I made it to the bottom of the tree and was lucky enough to pick up a few coconuts that had fallen to the ground.

A piece of gravel helped me solve the problem of opening a coconut.

It should have taken a few hours, and although it felt like centuries for me, I finally got my hands on the delicious coconut water.

It tasted the most delicious I've ever tasted in my life.

The sweet juice moistened my lips, ran past the tip of my tongue, and flowed down my throat......

This should be the feeling of happiness.

After drinking the fifth coconut, I finally felt full.

I sat down by the roots, leaned against the roots, and began to think.

The sunset over the sea is so beautiful.

But I'm really not in the mood to watch it.

I started to worry, what if no one was looking for me?

What if someone comes and can't find me?

What if I'm stuck here?

I was really worried, but I had to think again.

The sun was setting and night was falling, and I didn't expect it to be so soon.

I just thought about a couple of questions.

Now, I'm starting to get scared, I don't know if there are any beasts here!

I don't know if there are any ghosts here!

I don't know if there's anything I don't know about here!

I was scared, I didn't dare shout, even though I wanted to.

I'm afraid of the dark.

I was afraid of the darkness of this strange place.

I felt as if an eye was staring at me in the dark.

I felt cold on my back, even though I knew my back was sweating, and I was afraid that someone would suddenly slap me from behind.

I felt that my nerves, like rubber bands, were stretched so long and long, that they had reached their limits.

It could break in the next moment, the next.

All kinds of strange sounds kept burrowing into my ears like a magic barrier, and kept eating away at my courage.

I stared at the sea in the distance as hard as I could.

I wish there would be a light in the next second, even if it was just a passing ship, even if it was just a ray of light.

I was so scared that something terrible suddenly appeared in my field of vision.

I didn't dare move.

I was exhausted.

Almost all the organs of my body were protesting against my movements.

They all told me they needed a break.

I ignored it though, and it was my brain that was most active right now.

I can't stop it.

All the horror scenes that I have an impression of are playing in my head on a loop.

The more this happens, the more scared I get.

In the middle of the night, the sea breeze blew so cold that I felt like I was about to freeze.

However, I did not dare to move.

I'm afraid that the sound of movement attracts predatory creatures.

I shivered at the sound of rustling all around.

Instinctively, I took out my pocket, and the cigarette was still there.

The smoke was completely distorted by the press.

The lighter is still there.

I tried to light a cigarette and took a deep breath.

My tense nerves were slightly relaxed.

The smoke is not very dry, it should be said that it is still very wet.

So this puff didn't let me suck anything.

But it reminded me to light a fire to ward off the cold.

The discomfort eventually overcame the fear, and I got up and went to pick up the leaves on the ground.

Finally, I got enough branches and leaves, and by this time, my clothes were soaked with cold sweat.

After gathering the dry dead leaves, I finally lit the fire.

Leaning against the trunk of the coconut tree, my heart settled a little against the backdrop of the fire.

But I still didn't dare to look at the dark woods around me.

I was afraid that I would suddenly see something terrible.

Staring at the leaping flames, I began to be surrounded by sleepiness

Just as I was dazed and about to fall asleep, I felt someone tap me on the shoulder.

I was so scared that I jumped up all of a sudden, "Ah......hhhh

My screams echoed in the night sky, followed by the sound of fluttering and the trampling of branches and leaves.

I felt like my heart couldn't take it anymore, I was struggling to breathe so fast that my adrenaline hormones should have soared to the highest level ever.

I looked behind me and clenched my fists with both hands. Fear doesn't govern my desire to survive.

Silence, darkness.

Nothing was found.

He looked down again at the place where he had just leaned against the coconut tree.

I couldn't help but laugh at myself, and my nervousness was greatly relieved.

It turned out that where I was leaning, a branch was lying quietly there.

It must have fallen from a large tree next to the coconut tree.

After this shock, my drowsiness disappeared completely.

Although the heart was still beating so fast, the fear dissipated a little.

It didn't take long for me to start having a stomachache as if I had been hit by an electric drill, and my intestines were filled with the sound of air wriggling and grunting.

Finding a depression near the fire, I began to solve it on the spot.

Unexpectedly, this is only the beginning of the pain.

In just a few dozen minutes, I pulled five times. repeated again and again, so that I, who was already holding on, lay directly to the ground.

The feeling of powerlessness hit me again, collapsed, and I can't even move a finger now.

I hope I don't pull anymore, I begged in my heart.

If I come a few more times, I guess I'll have to go to God too.

I guess I ate too much coconut, I think.

Tomorrow seems to be the first thing I need to do is to find fresh water, otherwise how can I survive until the rescuers come to save me?

……

The day was extraordinarily long for me, and when the sky was white, I finally fell asleep.
