The Forest Guardian, Chapter 34, A note v3

PART 3. Day twenty-one. I managed to talk to her. She's actually very smart and kind. But the feeling of anxiety does not stop overpowering me when I realize that this is just a part of my consciousness that really wants to live, really wants to communicate and... I can't resist her... Day twenty-three. We talked about the world with her all night. She understands me perfectly. Or rather, I am myself. Day thirty-two. I've almost lost count of the days. I am very pleased with her. She comforts me, strokes me, cherishes me. I feel good with her, I don't want to go out. Only I stopped eating altogether. I don't have the strength until I'm with her. It's getting hotter every day. The fortieth day. I'm really hungry.
