I went searching for firewood with my mother near the forest, to find firewood for my mother. I helped her. We found decaying logs. The aroma of cardamom wafted through the ginger groves. I walked here and there in the forest, finding the scent of flowers while my mother was chopping firewood.
I saw a lovely butterfly fly away from the forest, where it could not be found. In the evening, the whole forest became dark. crickets and evil wolves, voices were heard. I walked crying in the forest, where there was no one.
Suddenly, I heard my mother’s voice. “Daughter, where are you?” I heard a startled voice. I felt that my mother was coming to find me. “Mom, I’m here?” I answered my mother in a loud voice. Mom quickly came to find me. I hugged my mother and cried. Then, I felt like I was lost in the forest.
