her eyes the color of flames and a grin that stretched ear to ear! i ran with the journal in hand but she was right behind me. i looked back at this giant thing with its arms outstretched and it threw me down a bank into the river!
day 5: 5:05 a.m. i floated down the river last night and it ran beside the bank for hours waiting for me to come to shore! somehow down a bend in the river, i lost her. i swam to shore and found a ditch. i’m wet and scared and cold. what is this thing?! it’s tall skinny and veins everywhere like a human.
