Everybody is afraid of something: heights,spiders,darkness ...and I could be one of those. I could be afraid of dying every time I cross the highway in the middle of the city,with my eyes closed. I could be scared of falling when I stand on the edge of the rooftop,tilting my head to watch the jungle of people that runs on the streets. I would never feel frightened in a battlefield. I was born fearless, and somehow, that made me think I was immortal.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXswDAJs411

When I first realized that I could do anything and nothing would ever happen to me,I started to take challenges from my friends, but even them got bored and one day,they stopped talking to me.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5RIlY92so

"You are weird" They said "A monster". And just like that I became this girl who will always walk alone in the dark, and that is what I'm doing right now.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJELx2jDjb

I'm walking by the riverside, as I watch the autumn leaves fall into the water and swim under the bridge. The park was empty and quiet;it was to late already to see any midnight walkers passing by. I looked for a bench and sat down. Then,I started to sing the same old song of everyday:319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NIXFw1T4L

I'm standing on the bridge319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0Rvh2VR40

I'm waiting in the dark...319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXGBpYHgnt

It's a damp cold night, trying to figure out this life ...
I was getting to the end of the chorus when the lights blinked.My eyes met the lamp post across the park and a dark silhouette showed up. I walked towards the person until there were only 10 steps between us.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6HxOTckgM
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSP2myNedR
He was a young boy, around 18 years old, dressing all black over his pale skin. The hair falling over his forehead lifted up with the breeze and let me see a pair of gray eyes, full of surprise. He took a step back and stared at me, looking confused.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOLvXqrNpv
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtB5pd5fp5
"Hi" I said, and the word burned in my throat. He didn't answer, though he nodded his head yes.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyYvD54u8k
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGivkIUYtqI
"Are you Ok?" I asked and he assented again without changing the expression of his face.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYst8uU5q8
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEw4cMkHnQq
"Do you need help?Are you lost?" I don't know why I was trying so hard to have a conversation. Me;the invisible girl, talking to a total stranger, was ironic.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFEgyXx2Ua
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIELjumkPIa
Suddenly, he opened his mouth, but no sound came out of it,like if he had lost all thought.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3D3BQtgDyC
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bMxWbIViA
"Can I help you?" I repeated.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7ZNUr7dKE
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVu6El4v9U
His expression turned from confused to serious. Finally,he said:319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkmpYuMmpc
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTClqHKj4Rb
"Aren't you afraid of me?"319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytqfPizAIt
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVX1AObvh4
"Why should I?" I laughed at the idea of me being scared of someone.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzb3gW16gGj
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mvvKpr9Cn
He knitted his eyebrows and asked:319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbO6DR9UKra
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGGtzu4bUe
"Don't you see it?"319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ460RSmy07M
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPNyX0zWeE
"See what? "319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTnRXTAupM
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dQQx4JwKc
"Of course you don't see it.Because it doesn't exist!"319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVWpxfzZCE
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BhVGmuEOe
I was about to reply when he pointed to the ground next to us.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDN6QY0p7N
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5ivQdZotg
And then I realized it.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwBY70QseR
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡger3L4HWJ2
"Where's your shadow?"319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7W37ipLQlQ
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBQEZKRJhr
"It left me a while ago"319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Es2XZNY5a
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48yZyQyFqH
"What do you mean with it left you?"319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxMD6aqPBp
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuL3MCPy2af
"I used to be sure that I didn't need anyone in my life but me" he started "I felt safe being alone and I could never trust no one else. It was only me and my shadow, and that was enough for a while. But with time, I couldn't stand it either. Then,it just left. Since that day,everybody is afraid of me because I am a man with no shadow and you are the first person who talks to me in a while ..."319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDisR7aBg2
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyqfAsTdpq
Then, with those last words I understood it. I was scared, I didn't want to end up alone,like the man with no shadow did.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WWuNDrfqd
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnawVmdCtu8
"I understand " I said after few seconds "I do, and if you let me,you will never have to be alone again. "319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JpQxlieOz
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIREzIcjYpI
"What do you mean?What about my shadow?"319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4JXTMjf2Z
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPw6TwWG5cA
"What about your life?" I replied319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxCkKnUPvv
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sfKBARTbp
"Would you please help me get my shadow back?" He said with a thread of hope hanging from his lips.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaa2rUUArZ
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fkhUcmdPa
"I have a better offer" I smiled " From now and on... I'll be your shadow"319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqv9bcKxwd
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaEOrXBG4W
The lamp post blinked again, and when the lights shined in the park, a dark silhouette was walking away, with a slight shadow following his steps.
