Nayla is a little girl. She lived in a small village with green ambiance of rice fields and trees. She was anxious and afraid of trying something new. When was at school, her friend known her as a clever student. Nayla was a rather introvert. When her friends tried to play something news such as riding bicycle or new game, she just watched it. She was been hesitate to joined with her friends.
Suddenly, One of her close friends, Lani, tried to invite Nayla
“ Why are you just staying there? Let’s join, This game is very interesting!” Lani said while she has been riding a bicycle.
One day, The teacher asked someone to become a volunteer in reading a story in front of the class.
Nayla came back home truly depressed. Her mother, who was preparing a cup of tea for her, noticed her gloomy expression immediately.
“Are you alright, dear? You seem a little worried today,” her mother said gently.
Sighing, Nayla replied, “I don't know, Mom. I fear to do things and everyone says I am so terrible”
Her mother smiled and sat beside Nayla. “Feeling scared is common, Nayla. But if you run away from them, they get bigger. Face them slowly, and you'll see that they're not as big as you think.”
Nayla listened, but that didn't make much sense to her. Indeed, she went off to sleep that night without making peace with all the possibilities in her mind.
In the dream, Nayla found herself in an unfamiliar and gloomy forest. Incredibly tall trees with black leaves grew above her. A cold breeze rustled; strange whispering sounds tingled along its gales.
"Where am I?" Nayla whispered, clutching herself close.
“Hello, hello! Is there any someone here? Nayla tried to call out some people. Poorly, nothing replied her calling.
Suddenly a terrifying apparition loomed up from behind the trees. This monster had a smoky black body, glowing red eyes, and rumbled voice able to make ground tremble.
"Wahhahaha! At last, I've found my little Nayla!" the monster roared.
