Part 3
"One more boring day in my boring life.",thought Chris brushing his flowing golden hair from his face and continuing the work of chopping wood with an axe he himself made with a sharp flint and a piece of wood. After toiling all morning by chopping wood for that night's dinner he decided to take some rest and went near the river that was flowing near the place where he was cutting wood. He was washing his face with the cool refreshing water when he saw something he had never seen before - a limp lifeless body of a beautiful girl was flowing along with the water rapidly. Without thinking for another moment he pulled out the girl's body when she was just near him. Chris got the girl out of water and then kept her body down and started pressing her stomach region hoping that she would just wake up. After many unsuccessful trials, the girl suddenly coughed out some water and started breathing again heavily but she was not in her consciousness. She had fainted again but at least she was breathing. Chris was happy with his find of the day and took the girl home and laid her on what he considered as bed which was nothing but few logs put together over which soft tender leaves were carefully arranged.
Anna suddenly woke up as she had got all the day's events as a nightmare and when she woke up she saw a handsome youth with messy golden hair staring down at her, after a brief moment Anna gave out a loud scream and that youth was taken aback by her behavior, Anna tried to get up from the bed and run away from the place but she couldn't move and when she saw down at her leg, she found it heavily bandaged by leaves and twigs and it was impossible for her to move it. The guy understood what she trying to do and said,"Don't try so hard, your leg is sprained and it will take some time for it to heal, so better don't move it much" The girl then felt her helplessness and did only one thing she could do at that time - started crying bitterly. The boy went near her and said,"Hey don't cry, feel happy that I found you and that you are still alive. Anyway my name is Chris." The girl also felt happy that she was alive but the thought of her parents reminded her more of the day's events and made her cry more. Then after sometime when Anna could gain control of herself She said to Chris,"My name is Anna Wilkinson and I fell down from the waterfall." and everything about her and her family. Chris after listening to her story was bewildered - She fell down from a waterfall and she was still in talking condition, Gods must be existing. Then to comfort Anna he said to her,"Your family must now be looking for you everywhere. Which was true as Mr. and Mrs.Wilkinson along with Vijay and many others were really looking for everywhere since evening but now it had become really dark and nothing much was visible so they all returned back empty handed but more determined to find her the next morning.
