My Secret MateHe's alive?
He's alive!
I immediately look over the edge of the cliff.
I can't see from here, but I can feel his presence.
I look at my father, bewilderment crosses his face.
I shift and run as fast as I can down the path.
The pregnancy is making me tired, but my heart keeps going strong.
I run until I see the cliff face from the bottom.
I run around, trying to find him, sniffing him out.
What I find is disturbing. I see bits of fur, splatters of blood, and a broken bones everywhere.
I can't tell if it's momo or his father.
I pray to God that is his father.I continue to look, not leaving any stone unturned, when suddenly, I see him.
He's lying there, peacefully, and it looks like he's sleeping.
I pray again that he's sleeping.
He's back in human form, his hair all messed up, a bit of dirt and blood in his face, but he looks fine.
I reach down and his jawline gently, hoping that he's wake up.
He doesn't stir.
I press my fingers against his neck. I feel nothing.
My heart sinks to the depths of hell.
Then I feel something.
Ba-dum.
Ba-dum.
"I thought that you'd never find me." He says, eyes opening.
"You're alive? How?" I exclaim.
"I used the trees to break my fall. I have a few cuts and bruises and probably won't be able to walk for a few days, but I'm alive"
The tears are running down my face, the joyous tears .running over the sad ones, and I feel complete.
"We need to get you help," I say, snapping out of my joyous emotions for a second,"you could be seriously hurt and not know it."
