Days turned to weeks. 2 weeks had passed since I got to know Synthia. But I still knew that she didn't trust on me, that I wasn't gonna do bad to myself or to her. So I had to prove it. I woke up suddenly at the night. I needed fresh air, cause the air of the cave was stuffy. I noticed, that Synthia, who was fast asleep, had a key to the shackles, where I was bound. I raised quietly and slowly up, went in front of her and opened the locks. She didn't woke up, when I opened the locks. I put the shackles down and went to the mouth of the cave. I breathed deeply and laid down and watched the night sky. It was really beautiful. I stayed there really long.
Meanwhile Synthia woke up and saw, that the shackles, where I was supposed to be bounded, were in front of her nest and I was missing. She got worried immediately and ran to outside. But then she stop when she looked at the mouth of the cave.
Mike, she said. I turned my head and saw Synthia coming. Hey, I said. Don't worry, I just needed some fresh air. The air of the cave is kinda stuffy, I continued. Synthia was relieved, when she saw me okay. But why you didn't wake me up if you wanted to come here, she asked.
I said:"Because I didn't want to wake you up. You were fast asleep and I didn't want to bother you. And now I proved to you something. Can you figure it out what it is?"
She looked at me and thought, what it was. She couldn't figure out what I meant. I explained it to her. She now realized my point when I didn't wanted to woke her up. She came next to me and said: "You're right, Mike. You proved to me, that you really are worth to be trusted. And... Now that I think, I actually need as well some fresh air." -Would you like to join me then, I asked her. She consented and stayed next to me. Suddenly she started to lean on me and sighed with happy sound on it. I watched her, then to the sky, which was totally beautiful. The feel in my heart started to grow. I was completely loved on her. And I believed that she was also loved in me. We stayed at the mouth of the cave a while, until we returned inside to continue our sleep. But Synthia stopped me when I was going to put those shackles back on me. No, she said. Don't put them back... I believe now, that you're not going to do anything bad to me or yourself, she continued. I looked at her and let them be. She suggest that we should get rid off' em. I agreed with her. We went back to sleep. But before I went back to my own place, I gave Synthia the last kiss on her cheek. She blushed , me as well. She smiled and went on her nest to get some sleep. I went to my own place and fell asleep before I even noticed.
