The sunny warmth on her skin already felt cooler. Like a heavy ball, the sun had sunk to the west, its rays no longer brightening the verdant meadow. Also heading west, the man now didn’t seem to care if she followed. Or he knew she would. Alarmed by the coming darkness, fearful of hungry, wild animals, she had no choice but to go after the stranger. She moved.
“Hey, you, wait up!”
He did stop at the sound of her voice, but he kept facing ahead. With her wrists linked she had to find a new balance to manage the slope. Not easy. Step by step she caught up with him and wondered why he regarded her as if something was wrong with her. He was the one with free hands, damn it!
Intent on not falling, she had a hard time shielding a thousand questions from spinning in her mind. So many interrogations going round and round that she thought she might go mad.
By contrast the man appeared to know exactly what he was doing. But where had he come from and why this peculiar need to fasten her to his side? Had he asked she would have been willing to go with him anyway, simply to not stay alone in this unknown land.
Come to think of it, why had she been sleeping in the meadow? How had she ended up there? On his lap to top it all! So many inexplicable issues that felt like pinpricks piercing her brain. Yet as the sun dipped below the horizon, she felt unable to keep out the most important question of all.
Where had New York gone?
