The driver, a man in his sixties asked Mike "Where are you from?" as the car moved at a pace. He added, "What brings you to this town?" while looking at Mike, who was being really quiet and seemed angry.
The driver said, "You know there's no place in the world thats totally peaceful. It's the people who choose to be at peace." He kept talking. Mike didn't say a word. The driver handed Mike a newspaper. Mike didn't even bother to look at it.
The old man said, "The national security teams are looking for you. You are wanted here. What are you going to do?" He changed lanes. Stopped the car. Mike tried to say something. He couldn't find the right words.
The driver asked, "Is it revenge that you want?" For the time Mike spoke up "I want justice." The old man leaned back in his seat. Whispered, "Justice."
There was a silence. Then the old man asked Mike "What will you do to get justice?" Mike replied, "I just want to live my life. It's hard to get justice in Zora. I'm looking for a life in another country."
The driver took a breath picked up a gun and pointed it. He put the gun on the steering wheel. Said, "You will face many problems. Sometimes you have to accept that you will lose and move on. The bad things that happen to you will become memories and the good things will be forgotten."
The driver told Mike "You should take the path through the bushes until you reach the school. The police are checking everyone so you have to be careful. You can rest at the school for a bit. They won't suspect you." He looked out the window. Said, "There's a lot of danger ahead including a big desert thats about 300 kilometers long. You have to cross the desert to get to the river that separates this country from the one."
The driver handed Mike the gun. Said, "This gun only has 12 bullets and you will be facing many dangers. I hope God is with you." Mike got out of the car looked around took the gun from the driver and said, "Thank you." He started walking
As Mike walked he saw beautiful things like stunning scenery, birds and animals. He also faced dangers like ferocious animals in the forests and grasslands. One night a cheetah almost attacked him and one day a python chased him. He tried to defend himself. It wasn't easy. He was lucky to have survived and reached the river.
Mike traveled for days and nights two weeks until he saw a school ahead. He sat down for a moment looking at the school with hope. Each day he felt weaker and weaker.
