And that makes me stop and wonder how humans could ever live where they do now. I can barely imagine how they are able to enjoy life among such greenless places where nature is at its least and how they can still remain smiling among all the noise and polluted air they face every single day. Once, when I had visited a nearby city to observe human life, I saw many people crowding the town and they had small, metallic cuboids in their hands which emitted a flash every few minute or so. I could still remember an incident where a young girl had spotted me one day.
“Mum, mum, look, it’s a Petilil. Can I have it, Mum? Please, pleeeeease!†the young girl had said, clutching onto her Mum’s sleeve. I had felt like running away then, obviously not interested in the offer. Thankfully, her mother managed to understand how I felt and how I desired freedom so badly. With a smile upon her face, she had patted me on my head and reassured me with her affection that I would not be tampered with.
“Come on sweetheart, we’ll catch a Pokemon for you in the future,†she had said, eyes glistening with wisdom. As a response, the child’s eyes began glowing with tears, “Don’t cry, sweetie. I’ll buy you some ice cream to cheer you up. How does that sound like?†I had sighed in relief when the girl smiled at her Mum’s suggestion, waterworks coming to a halt.
