“Does that include me?” I asked “Am I one of these ´Maybe´? Father?” I noticed419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06bZP8Ia7r
he chose not to answer, but instead to deflect, “Since you can read already, I am sure419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07RyeTcS4e
your writing skills are close behind, and so I would have you do something for me.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ayk0zkzJB
Something quite important.”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBRF60uiaF
“I know writing, I mean what that is.” I remember waving my finger around as419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8GgbnTg28
I tried to mimic the words on that sign “But I am not sure I can do it myself. Not yet.”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2irQilGvq
“It will come to you,” He smiled, his most appreciated attempt at inspiring any419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWwFpU4xzJ
confidence in me, “and when it does, I would like for you to write down everything419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcbNblwMzj
that is going to transpire tonight.” He then rummaged through that big bag he had419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbOOXwJjse
been readying for the last moments, before finally slapping his forehead after realising419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1FUHCSODB
what he was looking for was already in one of his pockets. He took it out, and then419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccIuJZy2cg
proudly handed it to me. That very same notebook that you now hold in your hand,419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAU8OmwMbmz
“Can you do that for me?” He insisted.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HeY5TrZtS
“I am not sure I -”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmvAi4usQd
“It will come to you, all the memories and much more.” He smiled as he handed419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlfncaBkaY
me some pencils too, “And when you know how, when you feel confident enough to419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjPVa0xTfz
start, I want you to write down everything concerning tonight. Write as much as you419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hTZzzllrU
can - use whatever sight is available to you; pen down whatever your eyes or your mind419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdRKcYuufy
decide to show you – keep writing until you find yourself out of here.”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEO3ihRdrj
“Can I make it like a story?” I asked shyly, “Of sorts...”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQLN8IIEAD
“Yes, if it pleases you. You can try and structure it like that if you want but do try419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfwcpaqI6K
and avoid any glib words.” He took another quick and desperate peek through that419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcb5B3zzArY
still barely opened crimson metal door “Then you can read it back to me, and to others,419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeC7cC2rAc
once we are far and away from this place - safe and under the sun.”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZA5g7XV0FB
“Can I make some drawings too?” My heart jumped in expectation. “Well,”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQVSzROT1E
He looked at me again, with the most patient of smiles “yes, certainly. Whatever helps419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNpu8IKml0
you in the telling, why not?” He rummaged again for some crayons which he then419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqw9ZXJg2qX
handed to me, and then he hesitantly returned his worrisome look to what was waiting419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4LvT7VjTK
on the other side of that door.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQ9Zk6u61b
“Are we going now?” I asked while holding all the things he gave me as tightly as my419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzU0ppA7b7q
little weak hands possibly could, “Father?”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyL9gx87M6
“Where could they be?” I heard him whisper “Well, no matter.” He took a deep breath,419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsIvtnVfWy
“Our way seems to be clear.” He then turned to me, with his eyes staring at mine in a419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9Yw2XBcsF
more serious way than I had thought possible. “This is it. Are you ready?”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9n1IASk4lL
“Yes...” I scattered all the pencils and crayons across all pockets available to me and,419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0aIQzRQ7C
while holding that notebook tightly in my right arm, I slowly extended my left one.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYn1kB0b5AN
He gently took hold of my hand, caressed my fingers a few times behind a comforting419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHslYdVN2W
smile, and then pulled me with him...419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpVUALHu0E
... and that is why I wrote all that you now hold.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaan1xqkBsx
“I see...” The Tinker admitted a bit dubiously when we were already back his place,419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJe74qkh7M
“That is quite the tale.” His fingers constantly caressing the well-worn cover of that419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIeg5Wu7bT
notebook; so easily displaying all the eagerness that his eyes would not share.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrRZOsDCU0
“That is what happened.”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJmhnAwtVV
“Well, and what then?” He asked as he gestured me to take a seat. We were now in419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtn4UNLLUC
what he called a ´living room´, and I could see all sorts of things scattered around that419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcMqeZSrsN
makeshift table standing distinguishably in the middle. “Go on, sit down. Wherever419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCugJ3RtO1
you like.” he insisted after placing my notebook in the centre of that table. Then he419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwy7yZHoV0
turned around, towards some cupboards and a device leaking out all sorts of fire.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhBqZi5rXg
“Can I take this one?” I asked regarding one of the few chairs I found in a usable419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZck3vi319
condition.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5yx0R4PyJ
“Go right ahead.” He promptly allowed, without even looking to see what I could be419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXgsXZIOby
referring to, as he was now clearly too busy preparing something. “Thank you.”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDLJS498Ze
“And then,” he asked me again, “what happened after?” He turned around holding a419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwUBuaR197
tray. On it rested a couple of exceptionally large and funny looking mugs, and between419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYRJPetv5N
them was a smoking metal pot.
