Such a big forest...

The child pursed his lips.

He also clenched his hands hanging from his side.

......

The child took steps.

He did not stay where he was.

The tiger promised him.

I'll play with him today.

That tiger... will definitely appear in front of him.

They made an appointment, didn't they?

The child opened his eyes wide and glanced at the surroundings.

The tiger is so big that if it is nearby, he will definitely be able to see it at a glance.

“…Tiger…Tiger…”

"tiger!"

The child just yelled softly at first.

It seems to be just reminding myself of the goal he is looking for.

As time passed, his voice became louder and louder.

Not a reminder to yourself.

Instead, I hope that the owner of the name can hear his call appear before him.

......

A dense bead of sweat oozed out of the child's forehead.

Even if the forest is blocked by the dense trees, the hot and high temperature of the sun is weakened.

But as time went by, the cicadas became more and more noisy.

He reached out and touched the leaves beside him.

It's a hot feeling.

His clothes were also a little stuck to his body.

Coupled with the disappointment of not being able to find it for a long time.

He frowned in annoyance.

Especially after thinking about what my grandfather and grandmother said before, a little fear arose in his heart.

The child took a deep breath.

No.

He is no longer a child.

Can't he tell whether the tiger is true or not?

Yesterday's tiger was real.

He just hasn't found the tiger yet.

Keep searching and he will find it.

The child touched the sweat stains on his forehead.

Pleasing yourself in your heart.

...

The child started shouting loudly again.

The loud voice stirred up some echoes in the woods.

A bird flew into the sky with its wings.

...

The forest during the day is very different from the night.

Even though the shade is rich, everything around you is still revealed in the bright summer sunshine.

Not gloomy.

It's not mysterious at all.

The child breathed slowly.

The depressed heart made him feel uncomfortable with breathing.

Could it be... Grandpa, grandma said it was true... Yesterday's tiger was not real... just an hallucination under the night in the dense forest?

No no no no.

The child shook his head vigorously.

How is that possible?

How is a tiger possible?

The child's thoughts were paused.

The body tilted forward.

Something tripped on his feet...

As a result, he was tripped at night or during the day...

The child is ready to bear the pain.

The next second, he found that his body pounced down stopped.

Feeling the pulling force of the clothes on the back, the child turned his head and looked.

Then, his eyes widened.

"……tiger?!"

The child screamed.

The tiger that he could not find was behind him.

One paw pulled the corner of his clothes.

If he stabilizes his body, he will fall.

"Tiger, tiger..."

The child was overjoyed.

The gloomy aura around me was swept away.

He really found the tiger!

No.

It was the tiger who appeared in front of him again.

The child smiled and bent his eyebrows.

Yesterday, the tiger appeared next to him after he fell.

The tiger appeared earlier this time.

It was when he was about to fall and he appeared beside him and stopped him from falling in time.

The child suddenly had a guess.

Next time he wants to see a tiger, will he just fall?

...

Seeing that the child stood firm, the tiger let go of his claws.

This human cub is really clumsy.

It's fine tonight.

Can this fall even in broad daylight?

Hmm.

The tiger thoughtful.

This human cub should have a hard time usually, right?

After all, you will fall from time to time.
