Chapter 33 - Chapter 33

Selim saw in his dream,that he was on the slope full of these trees:willows,oriental spruce,Caucasian pine,ash,hornbeam,lush and birch.He looked below the slope he was sitting and saw light blue river.He looked at the stunning scenery around him and was mesmerized by its beauty.He took his shoes and shirt off and jumped into the river.When he felt himself refreshed,he stood up and went where he left his shoes and shirt.Abruptly,he heard blue tit's chanting.He liked its chanting so much,that he closed his eyes for a second and inhaled the fresh air.He felt the nice smell of the surrounding trees.The blue tit kept chanting and Selim wondered what kind of bird could tweet so marvelously.He opened his eyes again and strived to search for this bird.He was looking around and couldn't find that bird for a while.Finally,he found it on the branch of willow.He slowly went towards the willow.When he was on his way to the tree,the blue tit flew towards Selim and sat on his left shoulder.

-I finally found you,cute creature!-Selim smiled for himself and caressed the blue tit on its head.

The bird chanted for a while and then flew behind Selim where the apple trees were.Selim went towards the apple trees and when he found them,he picked 2 red apple and ate them.He was not too far away from the river.When he was done eating the apples,he returned near the river bank.There,he came across 4 children.

2 of them were around 6 year-old boys.They had black hair and black eyes.They were sitting on the big stones and their feet were into the river.On the opposite side,2 beautiful little girls were sitting on the stones.One of these girls had blonde hair and gray eyes,the other had orange hair and blue eyes.The blonde one looked at one of the boys sitting in front of her and told him:

-Shio,let's splash river water to each other!

-Come with us,Mzia!

Mzia stood up,held her sister's hand and went towards her brothers.Shio held Mzia's hand and another boy held the orange haired girl's hand.They jumped into the river and after getting up they started splashing water to one another.They were laughing and giggling.

While staring at the cheerful children,Selim heard a woman's voice behind him.She told him:

-You are in front of the river called Algeti.You are in the very kingdom you were born.

Selim got startled for a moment and turned around.He encountered the old lady.She had white hair,torn gray dress and clutch.

-Who are you,granny?

-I am the very fortune teller who predicted your destiny when you were born.

-Who are these children behind me?

-All of them are your siblings.Memorize your homeland's landscapes,because you will only be able to see them in your dreams.

As soon as she told this to him,she vanished.Selim turned around and desperately attempted to look at the children again,but they disappeared in the blink of an eye.Selim woke up and found himself on the bed.Mustafa and Safiye were standing around his bed.
