The Wolf that Fell in Love with Red Riding Hood

For Him

Red

Since that day, the other path was what i always take. Each day that i get to spend with him was special. We chatted, played, shared and ate apples. I understood his fear and loneliness. He became a part of my life and he never was "different" to me.

But then the day we feared would come, did came one day. The people knew about my secret of breaking the rules and it spreaded out like wild fire. The news passed out from ear to ear until it reached to my mother. The wolf and i were both in danger.

I was interoggated about what was on the other side. They were bothered why i was always unharmed upon going in and out of the wolf's lair. They judged and labelled me to be a traitor. I spoke not a word about the wolf.

They threw me to a dungeon for they were afraid that i was under the wolf's curse or something worse. I didn't speak a word nor defended myself, for i wanted the wolf to be secure. The last scene that i saw was my mother's crying face and lamented voice. Even she couldn't do anything about my state.

I suffered for days, weeks, months inside this worn-out, cold dungeon. Alone and afraid, yet contented that the wolf would be safe.
