The loud rumbling engine starts to get even louder and louder as the wheels spins even faster over the gray asphalt. The hand moves gracefully over to the gearbox and moves it to the fourth gear, making the black Mazda swoosh over the green landscape. Standing out with the shining black paint beside the green fields, forests and the blue sky. It makes its way through the road of brown rock and gravel, as far as you could see, with grass growing in the between the car track. Crushing the stones under the wheels, the car slowly goes forward. While making a racket outside, scaring off animals and birds away from the small road, the music from the radio fills the inside.
-"And that was Drinche with the song, Summer time! Thank you Micheal for suggesting this song!" The radio, now more quiet than before, still tried to fight about being the loudest of the car or the radio itself as the man continues to speak.
-"As you all know, summer is on it's way and with that, we can't miss a single summer hit! Making the next song-" A click appeared when the hand turned the little button beside the radio, and a long and huge sigh filled the empty space, except for the crisping sound the wheels were making. The sun, who was before, shining into the car, now only visible through the tree tops and ahead, there were fields as long as you could see. With the huge green grass and trees, it made it impossible to see any other roads, if there even was one. The white fluffy clouds slowly moved over the blue sky and it was very calm in the afternoon. The road suddenly turned to the left and the car followed a high hill upward. As smooth as the car was going over the road, it easily made it up to the hill and well up there, the hill was going down again only to show a very small village resting in the afternoon sun. With just as much field on the road back, there were probably even more surrounding the village. Even so, the fields around the village was being used, with dirt dug up and plants growing, it really showed a vibe of a nice small village. Other than fields the village was also surrounded by forest and the only road out was this one up the hill, yet it seemed like there was another road going into the forest, but the high grass made it difficult to see if it was a road or not.
Evelina took off her black sunglasses and stepped outside, closing the cardoor while watching the small village. She took a deep breath of the clean air and felt like only that, cleaned her body from the tight air inside the car that had surrounded her for about 4 hours. It was really a long way here and she could not understand how the people here could survive so far off the outside world. But on the other hand, that made the village seem so nice and comfortable.
The woman, wearing high heels, took out a small black leather pad out from the blue jeans. The writing pad was probably not bigger than 3,9 inches and the pages were all straight lines for her to write on, it looked old thought with the leather a bit stretched on the edges and the yellow pages filling it but it was very handy in these situations rather than carrying around a huge laptop at all time.
With a pen in her hand, she started to write in the little pad on a blank page.
[Journal: 201X 14 of July
I have now arrived at the village called Ordoun.
It's small, surrounded by huge fields and forests.
From today onward, this journal will be my dairy,
from which I write and update on my adventure here.
First off; Searching for a place to stay and then talk
to the villagers.]
Evelina closed the little leather pad and put it back into her pocket and started to get into the car again, back to the tight air filled cage with a no good air conditioner. Already inside the car she missed the smell of the flowers, blooming with pink color and the sound of the wind whipping the grass fields and small flicker from the green leaves. Now, making it feel like it was only a week the snow had been all over the country, it was now summer. With a turn on the car key, the engine started to roar as she drove off down the hill and into the village. This was actually Evelina's first time here in Ordoun village. And even though she have done some research on the place, it didn't seem that scary from the point of view Evelina saw everyhting, with the sun gleaming over the small cottages.
With a loud car and very outstanding as well, it was not very hard to not be seen by the villagers. She drove past some old people and, which was chocking for Evelina, people about her own age. With a life in the big cities, it was not odd to think as to why people her own age wanted to stay in a cramped place like this. Thinking of what you can do in the cities and how hard it must be to provide for a family in a place like this, since you have to buy a lot of stuff to the children like diapers. And talking about cramped places, with the car in a place like this, Evelina found herself quite big and took too much place on the small thin roads but then found a larger cottage, thinking it might be some sort of motell. Parking the car by the side and locking it, the young woman with brown hair started to go to the bigger cottage, as her high heels echoed, hitting the ground.
