Autumn's rebellious leaves
The autumn leaves flew joyously with the wind; their red and orange hues swept past the ancient immense trees of which they once belonged to. Admiring the sight, John Bishop fell onto the moist grass and indulged in a much needed break. It had been long arduous day for him and the beauty of nature never failed to assuage his stress. He was a bit uncomfortable, the dampness of the grass had jumped onto his tattered jeans, but he ignored the minor annoyance.
"I'm never going back there", he said as if the trees were listening.
"They'll be better off without me."
The sun would soon start its descent and before long, darkness would envelop the forest. John disregarded this as he laid his head along the wet grass and closed his tired eyes. Suddenly, in the outskirts of his ears, he heard a sound which wasn't correspondent to nature. The barely audible noise sounded like a few people traveling through the woods.
Could it be them? He thought to himself, secretly hoping for the affirmative.
"Eh, as if they give a rats ass about me", He muttered.
The mysterious noise grew progressively louder with each passing second. This alerted John and his eyes crammed open in pursuit of the disturbance. They soon caught the culprit; a father and a son were sauntering through the leaf adorned grass.
Of course it's not them; there'll never look for me, the teenager so naively thought.
He attempted to conceal himself from the intruders by twisting into a position which would reveal as little of his body as possible. Meanwhile, the family continued their stroll. The young child was laughing and playing as he made his way through the forest, an innocent happiness much envied by John. The two of them were approaching rapidly and soon they would be adjacent to him. John was overcome by a wave of trepidation; he desperately didn't want to be confronted. Unfortunately, the gregarious son was oblivious to his wish. The young boy's eyes stumbled upon John and the lad ambled to where he was laying.
The boy had long dirty brown hair and a friendly face; he didn't look any older than five. Soon he emerged about a meter or two away from John and glared at his black hair, torn t-shirt, tattered jeans and exhausted countenance.
"Hello", the boy greeted jovially.
"Um, hi, how are you doing", said John as he franticly rose.
"Billy, who are you talking to?" His father asked cheerfully, noticing his son's deviation.
"Uh, my name's John. I was just relaxing here when your son saw me and said hi."
"Oh. It's beautiful isn't it? I had to lock my kid indoors all day yesterday because of the rain and today he was feeling restless, so I took him for a hike."
The grass and tress sparkled brightly with the remains of the past day's shower. Yesterday's tears became today's wonder. The previously secluded foxes, squirrels and rabbits now ostentatiously dwelled throughout the wilderness. Their vibrant beauty contributed greatly to the amazing allure of the forest.
"Yeah, it rained real heavy last night", John remarked; and by the soaked condition of his clothes, the father knew he personally experienced the clouds wrath.
"So, is everything all right with you?" The father inquired.
"Everything's fine", John replied with an acerbity that revealed his deception.
"I hope so."
"I said everything's fine! Can you just leave me alone?"
"Billy, come over here." The young boy grudgingly returned to his father.
"Look, I just want to help you. Tell me what's wro-."
"You don't even know me!" John interrupted with a vehement scream.
"I don't have to know you to realize that you slept outside yesterday. Trust me, you need help."
"Look, I think you need help. Leave me alone!"
"When was the last time you ate something?"
John considered responding obscenely, but hesitated when he remembered that the man's son was with him.
"I'll ask it again, when was the last time you ate?"
"Not since last night", John conceded, his defensive barriers faltering.
"Look, you're drenched, your clothes are ripped, and you're probably starving. It's getting late and where going to go back to our house. Please have dinner with us."
"What we eating?" Rejoined the exuberant son.
"Pasta, cooked by your mom."
"Yippy!" The young boy cried in delight.
I'd rather learn from one bird how to sing
Than teach 10,000 stars how not to dance.
