Yacumama
Prologue The Mother of Water “Let’s go canoeing” he said, “It’ll be fun” he said. Sweat drips down from every part of my body; the humidity is excessive and passing out would be a great relief right now. Before we got onto this stupid canoe we walked for an hour and a half through the forest and we came across scary, nasty insects; I think I even saw a snake. Even though we had no clue where we were going, Kai was extremely eager to get to a waterfall. When we finally found one, we also found this canoe… We don’t know who it belongs to or if it’s even stable enough to carry us both. I’ve been quiet this entire time because I promised Kai I wouldn’t complain, but I can’t help that I feel this way. Kai’s being dangerous and I’ve never seen this side of him before. It has me concerned; I can’t be the rational one because we’d just get into an argument about me complaining. Men… All they want to do is be right; they’re not even close to reasonable. They consider themselves logical, but knowing a lot of information doesn’t make you smart. Having common sense, and a sense of intuition is what's going to keep you alive. “Kai, do you really think this is a good idea?” Kai ignores me as he continues to row the canoe down the small waterfall. I hold on for dear life, hoping this won’t be the end of us. As we make it down the stream, water splashes on the both of us. This is a sweet relief considering how hot and humid it is out here. “How fun was that?” Kai grins, I give him a slight smirk. Worry still lives inside of me; I don’t know what’s to come… We could fall down a longer, more dangerous waterfall. We could run into a lion, tiger or cheetah… We could die and he has the nerve to ask me “how fun is this?” Not very fun if you ask me.
