Running...All she could do was running. It didn't matter that her legs were bleeding. It didn't matter that she was exhausted. The only thing that mattered was that he was there, in the middle of the forest, seriously injured. He had appeared suddenly in front of her saving her from a wild animal, taking the attack instead of her. She hadn't  noticed him before . He was  the boy with the silver chain around his neck. Nothing less , nothing more. How did he manage to appear in the forest and save her she couldn't tell...After a while she didn't manage to find anyone so she returned to the injured boy who had passed out. She held his hand in an attempt to comfort him. He opened his eyes and looked at her . ''Ah! It seems that I had to be at risk of dying for you to notice me'' . He said with a weak voice. ''I don't understand. What are you talking about?'' She asked him surprised. ''I was there. All your life I was there. I was trying every day to make you notice me , talk to me but in vain. Every time I was trying to be with you, even for a minute , you were running away. You were always running away from me. I wonder, do you know me? You should at least remember my name. I had told you my name once.'' She fell silent . No, she couldn't remember his name. ''I know you as the boy with the silver chain. I'm sorry , but I can't remember your name''.  She admitted and looked him in the eyes. She couldn't tell if the pain she saw in them was because of his injury or because of her. ''The boy with the silver chain... Then I want you to remember me at least like that''. He said, then took off the chain and offered it to her.   '' What's your name? Please, tell me!'' She begged him. '' It doesnt matter. For you I will always be the boy with the silver chain. So, keep it to remember me.'' And with those words he died. She stayed there, crying. She was crying not only because he had died , but because she was such an idiot not to notice him before. And because of that he passed into eternity as the boy with the silver chain...
It's just a story. Nothing more, nothing less...
