The Bow

02| family hunt

     

         Can years of sorrow end within a
     few days ? She had seen it, but 
            has yet to believe it .

    

      

      it was a Saturday morning a really delightful day for our joyful Erika but
   here she was crossing her legs and pouting while having to listen to her
 family's discussions, Her disliked
stepmother serving breakfast to the
  table, as her father chatted along with
  her brothers, the food was offered to
       her, she glanced at the plate,
  to be welcomed with a sandwich just
     like every other day, Ignoring her family, she began eating as she spun
 the pages of the novel while grinning
  to herself. Erika didn't think the meal
 was particularly noteworthy, but her 
   brother carried the conversation 
extolling its deliciousness. Her two
brothers, her father, and she made up the family of four. She left out her 
stepmother as she wasn't connected to
  them by blood or marriage. Since
Erika only had brothers and had no
  cooking experience, she was unable to
criticize her stepmother's meals. She 
  took her plate to the sink as the
  water flowed through her hand and
to the sink, where it removed the 
  remaining crumbs. She then set the 
plate aside and walked back to the 
table with the intention of reading in 
her room as her brother continued
  "is it possible for us to go hunting today father? i'm yearning for some 
meat" She waited for her father's
response before joyfully ascending
  as he consented, her face beaming
      given that it allowed her to  
simultaneously engage in her two
  favorite activities, riding Daisy and 
                      archery.

    

      The family had gotten ready, Erika
  teamed up with her father, while her two brothers went together, her father
took his ideal horse as she rode Daisy,
   although it was the sole horse she
possessed. Daisy was never as elegant 
  as her may name suggest; rather, she 
was a really rapid and powerful runner
    Erika strolled around with her father
  as he started chatting with her "How
frequently do you go hunting?" He
   asked. Erika tugged on the rein to
cause her horse to stop. Then, she
bent her head and extended her arms  
  to the quiver by her side, pulling
out an arrow and attaching it to the
bow in her other hand before aiming
the bow and arrow at the sky and 
successfully shooting a bird that was
   flying by. "Every now and then." 
She returned the bow to its proper
    place after responding to her
father's query. Her proficiency with
the bow astonished her father. He had
   anticipated that the sight of blood
would cause her to experience trauma. 
yet, Erika did not feel any sympathy for
    the bird despite the fact that he
could have a brood, she would take a
heart to ensure her existence, that
was the kind of person she truly was
believing that she had to be harsh in 
order to avoid being consumed by
foolish emotions. If she had been 
graceful and a sweet lady, she would
 already be dead by this point because 
     she had only ever encountered 
ferocious and wicked  animals. she 
detested the countryside, its residents, 
  and its wildlife. If the teacher spent
 hours extolling the virtues of the 
world, she wouldn't buy it; she
 couldn't picture it. If there was a good
   world out there why was she left
here? Her desire to flee was the
catalyst for her interest in horse racing. and she slaughtered forest beasts to 
vent her rage. she had a justification
 for her actions; she hadn't committed
 a sin, so why was she leading this life?
 when might she be content at last?
This young girl's mind was swimming
with questions. All she could do was 
  wish someone knew the answers.
