Me: *takes a sip of coffee*

Me: *sets the cup down gently*

A little boy, sad and filled with anger about his parents sudden death runs away from his aunts house. He runs into a nearby forest and curls up beneath a large tree. His cries fill the silent forest. When he wipes his eyes he saw the heavy fog closing in around him. He pulled his jacket tighter when he felt a icy breeze. That’s when he heard it. His mothers voice. Sweet and calm. Calling to him. He stood up, tears streaming down his cheeks. He looked around but the fog was so thick he could barely see his hand in front of him. “Mother!?” He shouts into the unknown. “Come here my darling. I can’t see you.” The voice calls sweetly. “Mother I’m right here! Where are you?” He sees a dark figure of a woman. He starts to run to the dark figure. While running he starts to recall his family’s funeral. He slows down and starts to walk. He remembers the car crash. The figure is not far off now. He stops. He starts to feel cold and sick. He falls to his knees. “Don’t you want to be with me?” The figure asks. The boy looks up. The figure is still and stretched its long dark arm. The boy has no strength, and his breathing is shallow. But moves closer. He has no control over his body. When he looked at her face cold sweat covered his whole body. Her eyes were black holes and her face decayed. He could see her teeth through her cheek. “I’ve found you my son.” A tree had formed around her lower half keeping her in place. He fought the urge to reach out and touch her hand. But he did not have the strength. As soon as their fingers interlocked he could feel the earth build up around him. The woman smiled grimly. The boy looked around and tried to scream for help but had no energy. It had been sapped by the tree that was engulfing his lower body. He glanced around noticed all the trees had faces of small children. The woman turns his face to hers. “Aren’t you happy to be a part of mothers garden?”
