Chapter 3....Scaleaha


My mind spins.
I feel myself get weaker and weaker finally making the connection.
"Holiya?" I hear Sheeka say.
"Are you okay?"
"Fine," I say, snapping back to earth.
Malanao grins. I can see he recognizes me but he gives no indication of this to his sister.
"This is Holiya," Sheeka tells him.
"Nice to meet you," he lie's.
"Sleana Savale!" I reply.
He nods.
"Can you leave my room now Malanao?" Sheeka asks him.
"Fine then!" he says reaching for Scaleaha.
Suddenly I snatch my Scaleaha off the bed and sprint out of the room.
Down the hallway, into the kitchen, up the ladder, onto the roof, down the wall, along the ally,down the road, around the corner, where next?
I stop in my tracks.
I wish I had paid more attention as I had run here.
I'm lost in a completely different part of the city than I'm used to in the pouring rain with a mad man and his sister chasing me all over a stupid stone.
I take a deep breath then run right.
Left, right,left making the route up as I go.
Surely they've lost my track now!
I should stop, and walk, but I can't stop.
They would find me.
I'm sure.
I turn yet another corner.
Then suddenly I see it.
Ravana Prima.
My old primary school.
I finally know where I am!
I follow my old route back to my small clay house.
"Vedi Maska!!!" I call to my Mum.
"Vedi!" She calls back.
I go into the bathroom and hang Scaleaha on the door handle.
I light a fire in the bath pit then carry buckets of water over to the bath and poor them in.
My bath slowly heats.
When its a nice lukewarm temperature I climb in.
I let my body relax and the baddness of the day slip away from me.
"Holiya!" I here my Maska call.
I lift me head out of the bath.
"Yeah!" I call back.
"Do you homework!"
I slip my head back into the bath the fumble for the plug.
I find the chain then pull.
The water rushes out of my bath and onto the fire putting it out.
I rap a crisp towel around my body and grab a hot cocoa of the beanch.
I pull the Scaleaha pouch of the door handle and open the pouch.
I slip my hand inside.
The pouch is empty.
Scaleaha has gone.

Here is a list of the words and there meanings.
-Sleana Savale!-A common Sxwalloin term meaning soft as silk. It is a respectful way to say thankyou to someone older than you.
Vedi Maska-Hi mum
Vedi-Hi
Once again this is my own writting and it is COPYWRIGHT!

greta writing ktikatyk - i am left wondering which language it is you are using and wear the setting is - India perhaps? whata grand idea to write within a different setting and cultural perspective - it must be challenging - have you travelled abroad?
as you re-read your work are you tempted to go back to edit small spelling errors or typos?
thank you for allowing your work to be critiqued in class. that is a wonderful gift from you to us.
