The sun was finally up so bright in the sky and birds chirped all around the trees. All creatures in the forest were fully awake except the owls who were so blind to see whenever the sun was up.

Silver an adventure lover who was just thirteen lay peacefully under the big oak tree in the woods. The branches waved and the leaves clapped the birds sang and the owls hooted as cool breeze swept through the forest.

Silver yawned, turned and stretched out her little arms as she opened her big round eyes.

The rays of the sun peeped through the leaves of the oak tree and hit her eyes the moment she opened them, so she used her hands to block the rays while she surveyed her environment.

She figured she was far from home but the forest looked beautiful and she was ready to explore it. The trees were amazing, blooming with different flowers and fruits, birds chirping and of course she could hear the waters fall.

Her stomach growled the moment her eyes caught the ripe mangos on the mango tree. Silver was really excited and got up from the ground which she lay and set to climb the mango tree.

Climbing has always been part of her life,she was born a village girl so climbing trees weren't hard for her.

She got to the tree,climbed up and feasted on the ripe mangos as she threw the seeds to the ground. Some birds gathered around the them and had their share from what she threw down.

When she was full, she got down from the tree and set off in search of the water fall. It wasn't far from where she slept so she found it easily.

The place was super cool for silver who loved nature right from the day she was born. The water was blue and had some precious stones of different colors displayed down it's depth. The flowers there were of different colors and Silver felt she had finally reached the garden of Eden as she screamed for joy.

She jumped into the water with her adventure cloth still on. She swam to her hearts content and when she finally got out of the water, a little gold fish had found its way into her side pocket.

She got it out of her pocket and looked at it. It was so adorable that she yearned to keep it but she didn't want it to feel caged because she loved her freedom just like the fish does and all she could do was introduce herself to the fish.

"I'm Silver and I know you're gold" she smiled after making her first statement, with the fish still in her hands, she said; "I'd love to keep you but I love being free and so do you so I'll let you go, you're my friend and it's a pleasure to meet you, I'll call you Silver even though I don't own you" she dropped the little gold fish back in the water and it jumped up and down and shook it's tail.

Silver smiled and made puppy eyes, she adored the little fish so much but she had to let it go, the little fish made bubbles as it swam away still shaking it's tail. Maybe it's saying goodbye to me she said as she waved it goodbye and headed back to the oak tree where she had spent the night.

She was a different young village girl who could go miles for adventure. She loves the outside world, travels to different bushes, woods and forests just to get familiar with nature even more. She was so happy to grow in a village which had a lot of amazing nature reserve.

She had had enough already for the day as she lay her head on her bag looking up into the sky with smiles on her face waiting for night to fall.

The next day was beautiful, She was up early and ready to head back home. She got out her compass, looked at it with a smile, picked up her bag hung it and hit the road. Her school would be resuming the next day and of course she'd be asked to write about her holiday.

Silver smiled as she hopped down the path that led home. She had had enough fun and of course had a lot to tell her mother and her teacher too.
