FIREFLIES: Pupa
(book 2)Entry 14
Caleb had apologized for allowing his revelry the night before to affect a full day of interaction on the trip and promised to be better company the next day. Talia dismissed it gently, assuring him that he had been no different than the rest of the group. The second day on the trail had sapped everyone's energy fully, and each wandered slowly towards their rooms for the night. The effects of the partying the night before had finally dissipated, and the group was looking forward to waking up ready for a new day. Talia could almost hear their secretly whispered prayers of thanks that chacha was only for the first night in Tbilisi.
Gliding towards her room, her anticipation increased. The soft click of the door lock was the most welcoming sound of the day. Sliding her shoes off without breaking her stride, she reached the bed in six steps. With her heartbeat slowed, the fireflies flashed in her eyes like a familiar beacon, welcoming her home. Though she worried that this trip back might be stressful, she was relieved to feel such longing as she slipped out of this world and into her own. She closed her eyes in the Georgian night and opened them milliseconds later to the sound of ocean waves crashing on the sun-lit shore.
"Bring me back."
The voice was intertwined with its surroundings completely. The waves, the breeze, the sound of the gulls - they were all in perfect harmony with this scene. A voice should have stood out as something separate and distinct, but it blended seamlessly instead. Try as she might, she couldn't distinguish anything familiar. It didn't seem male or female, not young or old. It didn't twinkle with laughter as in her mother's bell-like voice, and there wasn't a hint of accent as in Bryd's European, polished sound. Though she couldn't place it, the significance of its presence wasn't lost on her. SOMEONE was here - someone that knew her and assumed she had the power to work miracles.

Arrrrrgh, am I complaining when I say that I think the parts are too short? LOL. I WANT TO KNOW!!!!!!
Hahahahaha these are the kind of complaints I love!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
But i used to do longer posts... but only release twice a week!
Hehehe
So at least you get a daily dose now! Lololol
That's just not good enough for someone who reads a book in a few hours. LOL. I need at least 4 times the text, twice a day ;) No pressure 😂😂😂
Hahahahhaa I know I know!!! My aunt and mother LOVED it but they refuse to read anymore until I'm finished hahahahhaa
But this is steemit! Lolol I can't release it all at once! 😂😂😂😂😂
Yeah, I'm actually contemplating to do the same... But I know myself, I'll see another piece pass by and I'll be too curious to stop myself. LOL.
I read 'The green mile' by Stephen King when they released one book each month. I'd read one, and then had to wait a whole MONTH for the next. It was torture! LOL. And then my mother said: 'Why didn't you just wait six months?' Duh! Never thought of it.
I know that you published this for Steem - but I would love to have the whole book on one piece - either in my hand or on a kindle (the later actually preferred because I can make the print big LOL)
As a matter of fact - it will be published to Kindle soon ;)
I'll make sure I tell you when its free - i'll be doing a giveaway for sure! :) i might even throw in some extra content to make it more enjoyable for people who have already read it! there were some questions that kept coming up in Book 1 - and they will be answered - but i might put some more teasers in there hehehe
Oh, and I keep wanting to join you on the ramble - but it is in the middle of the day and I am usually either not home or working with hands dirty... Someday - I will make it!
ahhhhh bummer you can't join today! so many prizes to give awaay (i need to buy more steem today because i need to award all my entrants from yesterday and now today too! hehehehe)

@dreemsteem, Without any doubt we all experience Silent Voice moment and i think that most of the times this sound is nothing but our inner-self which came up to let us know that how much powerful we are and we are not recognising our own power. Stay blessed.

It is a coin flip since the energy is everywhere... Could even be Bryd purely because he went into water and there is water all around so he might be bound to the ocean or something.
Another interesting thought. Hehehe
See? This is why I love comments hehehe
Love getting into the mind of the reader!!!
