Who am I and what am I?

My name is sala,I am eighteen years old, My mother is a

scientist in the meat lab,I have a friend we’ve been dating

for a year and his name is Cham.

We live in one of the modern high-tech cities.

CHAPTER ONE:

Dear diaries, it was the day my friend Nikki and I went for a walk in the city, we were surprised to see in Algon, too many people crowded together, shouting that they have no job, even government agents came to calm the commotion…. I looked at people until I did not notice them I was going I went into the water and it was so awful, but I actually understand the people because during that time most people had a hard time…

But I can say that this year that is actually my 18th year was the best for me.

Zoat was my and Tzam’s year as friends, we passed by the taste pot machine I saw him and my heart once even after a year together, after we ate my favorite taste pot we decided to go to the simulator center, I really like to go there because it is a room that really “disconnects” you life The hardships that happened then, that day Tsam and I remembered how we met a year ago. It was an amazing day. Even better, Tzam also brought me such a cool gift. This gift was expensive in those years. You from life.
When Tsam and I left the simulator space we met my friend Nicky and also Palo and Ding.
It was an amazing day until I heard the “new idea of ​​the government”, this idea really shocked me, this idea said that from now on we the people of the city should live in pods “and clean up from real life” -These pods were called “Food Life”, and I really thought to myself why do they do that? And how will our body survive like that?
Then Ding explained – that they developed these pods so well that they even take care of the body the vitamins it needs and even more so it also trains the muscles.
According to the government idea we will have to live in these backpacks for two years and it shocked me completely, at that moment I realized my grandmother knew it would happen even in the days before the oil war which was in a time when people could travel freely and see more parts of the world, and enjoy the real world. I realized that the government is doing something because it has no choice, all the air is polluted and there are too many people, and I did not know what to do with the matter ….

CHAPTER TOW:

When me and Tzam went out to the house it was still raining and dark, and suddenly I felt someone touching my hand I got scared and quickly turned around to see who it was, it was a strange person wearing a hat covering all her face and I could only see her green eyes, she gave me a kind of strange box A small, dry red, she told me to take it to Grandma,
And then she just disappeared, it was an unusually strange sight, I noticed that Tzam was looking at this strange fruit, I asked him with something cold and he refused to answer ….
When I returned home I saw my grandmother “in her natural garden” Zaat was a vegetable garden but she was nothing, all the fruits were poisoned, even from the oil war ….
When I gave my grandmother her face box pale I was very scared, I thought something had happened ….
But I soon realized that she reacted like this because this fruit was not from the city, these were from one city …

Because there was not in our city that went through the oil war that poisoned it, and there was not even one such fruit in the city …
Grandma soon told me that you had not shown this fruit since childhood 30 years ago, Grandma had a brother who disappeared during the oil war and had never seen it before, so I thought to Tommy: Maybe it’s Grandma’s brother sent? “, But Grandma quickly denied this idea. , Then I asked Grandma, “Is this someone from one city who did not go through the oil war?”
I was very optimistic that there was another city that was not polluted, and I knew that we would still get out of this terrible situation one day, and I lived with the sentence that says: “Never give up hope” ….

CHAPTER THREE:
After talking to Grandma I could not stop thinking about this conversation and asked myself questions, are we ever going to be a normal world again? , Or maybe the other way around ?, these thoughts bothered me terribly, I was sure that what would help me now was to call to fast and talk to him and tell him, I called him several times and I see that he does not answer me, I can say I felt really stressed something happened to him, or maybe He’s mad at me and does not want to talk to me?!?!
I sent him messages and waited for an answer, really after a few minutes he called me and I felt happy and calm.

Tsam and I talked and I felt that something was wrong with him, because he started talking about this backpack that you have to live in for two years and in return for it to get energy, I was very much not in favor of the government idea, I asked him what happened he said everything was fine and normal ….
We talked and talked and finally decided that we would meet tomorrow at the simulator center, that Tzam hung up I waited that I did not tell him about this strange fruit that the woman gave me …..
The next morning we met at the simulator center to play and accumulate some energy, I really liked these games, me and Tsam decided to take a break and go to the cafe, while my brother effect was still playing.
When we got to the cafe I went to buy us a drink, when I came back I suddenly saw Tzam answering messages and his face looked stressed, then again I asked him with everything fine, and he answered yes, but after a while he started talking to me about this backpack, he said I got messages from the people POD and they made me think that POD LIF is not a bad idea, I did not feel good that he would delay it for me and I was very surprised and his reaction, after that I took his phone and read the messages and then my eyes darkened I felt very angry because I saw he was really considering And he also talked to his mother about it.
I told him what are you really considering leaving with me for years ?, then I took the effect and went home ….

When I got home I saw Grandma and she immediately saw in my face something pale because at the level I felt nauseous, Grandma asked me what happened, and I started telling her everything ….
Grandma listened to me to the end, then Grandma told me: that it’s normal to consider things and that it does not mean he really will do it, she also said that the situation of Tzam is different from our situation to live in a land house it is very expensive and always his parents are looking for money to pay their debts. We were quite lucky that our mother was a scientist in the meat lab, but Tzam’s parents did not earn much, Grandma said that maybe Tzam is thinking about his future, because whoever agrees to be in this backpack for two years gets a considerable amount of money …
The things Grandma said were very true and I felt very whole with them.
Then Grandma looked very strange and she suddenly reminded me of this strange fruit I got, this thing made me think that maybe there really is more life outside our city, and that Eli will still see the real world, and that maybe we can see all the things in the real simulator !!

CHAPTER FOUR:
After fighting with Tzam I felt terrible, I thought about everything Grandma told me
On fasting ….
And I realized I needed to apologize, I decided to send him a message, you waited a few minutes that seemed like a year to me … Finally he came back to me and we decided to meet to talk …
I went out towards his house he was not so far from him, the weather was very cold it rained and there was lightning in the background …. when I got to his house we sat and started talking … we apologized to each other, then again fast started talking about this backpack but this time I did not Nothing because I understood from what Grandma said we were different … I tried to imagine living in a backpack and it seemed very strange to me, after Tzam finished talking to me about the backpack and explaining to me why it was worth doing I thought of an idea, and said to Tzam why your dad would not do the That, the truth what bothered me the most was that me and Tzam might break up with Tzam would do it, but Tzam explained to me that this idea is only for our ages from 17 to 21, and then Tzam asked me very gently, maybe you will do it with me, up to him For a moment I did not think about doing it, very quickly I tried to change the subject so as not to heat things up anymore, we talked a bit about this strange fruit and a woman who enjoyed it without any note, Tzam did not bother to believe it came from outside, but again very quickly he came back to talk about the backpack And about the option of doing it together, the truth I really thought about it that by doing it together it could be good but I did not know how it would feel so maybe we can think And feel it more clearly later ….

CHAPTER FIVE:
It was Monday and Nicky and I returned home from college …
On the way home we talked about the backpack experience and it seemed that many seriously considered moving to live like this, and it still scared me, because in the end I really like being independent, and even so the government already controls us enough, and I would rather be free than be in a backpack ….
After I said goodbye to Nicky I saw again the woman who gave me the strange fruit, and even now she just disappeared.
As the days go by, the day of my “experience” and Tzam on the backpack approaches.
This is where the day comes, me and Tzam on the way to his building, suddenly we saw a tall and beautiful building, as we returned to enter they scanned our pillows and the door opened ….
Inside the building a wonderful woman named Zi was waiting for us, all the workers there looked really safe and impressed, Zi led us tomorrow with weird suit make money, me and Tzam wore the suits and then took us to our backpacks, Tzam was very excited was all glowing, and the truth I am a little very I was afraid of what was going to happen …

And Tsam looked very nice as usual in his suit, she led us on a very strange row of vertices that stood vertically, and I was wrong. Does it really feel like you’re swimming with dolphins in one like that? Tsam and his eyes were shining and I was very happy to see him like this, and he said to me “in an hour see you, Sala”, she led me to my backpack at that time I was very worried about what to do, I wore the suit I felt cold iron touch my body and at once I watched the water Cool touched my face, it was amazing !!
I literally licked my lips and felt salty, wow I was really in the sea, above me was a blue sky, it looked like a golden beach, the ocean stretched into the distance I found I knew how to swim naturally, I can say it was a really lovely feeling ..
I suddenly became more brave and managed to swim very fast towards the shore, then suddenly I heard a noise I turned my head and saw a dolphin, I really could not believe, I also saw Tzam swimming with the dolphin, me and Tzam swam with them for a long time, I also saw very beautiful fish, it was Stunning…
Then I heard a voice “Your hour is over” and suddenly the ocean disappeared fasting disappeared, then suddenly I saw Zi’s face, and then she asked me “how was the trip?, He was wonderful?”
And I suddenly did not see water I did not feel that amazing feeling and burst into tears.

CHAPTER SIX: (Sala’s decision) –
Tsam and I came out of the backpack and I had a very strange feeling, Lizzie brought me the clothes, and also such an energy drink, Tsam and I started talking and for a moment I was scared that I played with the dolphins that it was just a tsam hologram and not really, but we told the story and it was similar but what It turns out that he and I experienced things together in a backpack but there were also things we experienced separately, it was weird and scary, but very quickly we got dressed back in our clothes, and went out outside ..

When we were on the way home Tzam did not look good, she did not behave normally he was really weird, it really worried me …
When we defended home a very big conversation was waiting for me.
Those moments you all loved Tzam, and I promised him that I would think of the idea, when I got home, everyone was, mom, grandma, brother effect, and we all sat down to eat.
I can say it was a very tasty dinner, mom brought the meat and grandma also added vegetables, everyone wanted to hear what I went through in the backpack, and I started telling them every detail, immediately my brother came up and said I also want to go there but he had to save some money To that, Mom also said she had a lot of people looking for work, and she was so sorry for them, just keep bringing in robots she said,I decided to ask mom what she thinks with this backpack, she said it is true that they invent high level studies for us but life there is very difficult, and grandma immediately agreed, then I decided to share with mom my thought to do with Tzam the backpack, she replied that I would think well Very much about the people I leave behind, and she too said they would probably miss me, and I know she obviously wants the best for me,And I immediately answered thank you mother, and then Grandma also spoke, and she reminded me of this strange fruit, and she too said that there might be another world outside the other city, and that maybe in the future it would be better, but I did not immediately raise hopes for it, but what scared me the most It’s disappointing …
I thought a lot about what Grandma said, I asked myself: maybe she’s right?
I thought and thought about continuing for 24 hours, but I knew I could not postpone my decision.
The day after the protest after school I invited Tzam to my house, I was a little afraid to tell him about my decision, but finally I decided to tell him, I told him I can not do it for all sorts of reasons but the main reason is that I can not leave my family like that, at that moment I I was a little surprised to find them because my decision made him realize that apart from each other we have nothing, but crying important it made him feel that maybe there is another world outside this city …, at that moment Tsam and I were never close like this, it was an amazing day …

CHAPTER SEVEN – (Hard Choice:

It’s been a Monday, a few days have passed since I made the decision on the “backpack”, I felt really free and happy, and now my friend Nicky and I were sitting on our lunch break at college, thinking about the next few months …
Nicky also thought of trying the “backpack”, and thought to herself probably heli relationship is easier, but I could not explain it to her as I explained to the fast, when I came home that afternoon I thought of Nicky’s words and maybe she’s right, I thought and thought until I fell asleep, suddenly My alternate beeped, at first I thought it was in the dream but no, I got up and saw an “important message”, then I saw that the message was a find, quickly without thinking I opened it, in a message be written, that a Tzam wants to meet me face to face in the simulator, I got up and ran to the center The simulator, Tzam was waiting for me in space number 46, which I entered was already The placenta of a rocky beach, with gray leaves, I touched Tzam’s seed, Tzam immediately thanked me for coming, and he whispered to me I’m sorry, at that moment I did not know what he was talking about, and then he said about my father, I was immediately scared I thought something happened to him, But he immediately answered me it’s his job, but I thought he worked in a meat lab, but it turns out that no longer, he said that instead they brought robots to do his job, it was very terrible because it was the only job he had, we already have a few energy units left he said Fasting, the situation at home is not something, I was in a lot of pain at the time about fasting, but the thing is ….
Then I knew what he was going to talk to me about “the backpack”, I thought to myself he must do it for his family, I realized I must be with his decision and respect it,The truth me and of course also fast, we were most scared about our relationship, and what was while he was two years in: “backpack”, and when he asked me that, his stuff really felt like an earthquake breaking out, it was cruel, can not hold it and I started cry.
When Tzam and I left the simulator center, I felt I had to run and run and run, until I was too tired to think.
When I ran by mistake I came across one man, and dropped him his shopping, very quickly I started to help him pick them up, and suddenly I saw that I was holding a small note, it was the woman who gave me this strange fruit, she did not talk to me at all just asked me to give the note to Grandma I did as the woman said and hurried home to give Grandma the note, when I got home I saw Grandma and Mom sitting, immediately Mom realized from my face that something was wrong, and I told her that Tzam went to do the “backpack” without me, and then suddenly before Mom had time to take out more Mila, Grandma was holding the note and her hands were shaking, and she was shouting – my brother Aston is alive ….
Mom immediately threw her tea on the table and went to read the note …
In the letter it was written that there is another life besides our city free good life, Grandma’s brother wrote that he misses it, he told how much he loves him how free he is, but he most asked us to be careful …

CHAPTER EIGHT-
I really wanted to tell Tzam already about what happened with the letter, but Grandma and Mom told me not to take the risk, and they told me to tell Tzam not to tell his parents, I think it was really hard for him to keep a secret from the parents not, but that was the only solution that would make the government not To find out, I could not even send it to him on the Internet, of course for fear that the government would find out, so I made an appointment with Tzam ….
I met Tzam in the afternoon in the center of the backpack, also there I was very afraid of the government agents who would not accidentally find out, so I hit Tzam with me, and told him everything, he was so happy to hear, but I immediately told him not to tell anyone, even his parents, I was afraid Very from the reaction no, but I was very surprised, he responded so well, even he promised me that he would never tell anyone …
I thought to myself that maybe Tzam would give up living in a “backpack” thanks to the gospels, so I immediately asked him – are you still going to do that?
He answered me – why not – I told you I must
But he did not understand that the government would lie to us, and most importantly there is a world out there … and of course we just have to find a way to get there.

The truth Tsam a little did not believe that there is another world out there, I can say that it very saddened me that he thinks like that …
Tzam told me “sorry, just that..I have to live in the real world Sala” …
And I just jumped in and said that living in a backpack is not the real world, it’s even the most unrealistic it can be.
Straight answer straight hey I do not want to hurt you or quarrel with you, and I suddenly felt like crying, the truth I do not so much know why ..
I really wanted Tzam to think a little about other needs, Tzam’s parents were already waiting for him inside the building, and Tzam went for a walk inside with the guide Letty, I really wanted to join them, I asked Tzam he was of course happy, and I joined.
And immediately Letty asked me with I intend to register there I of course replied no, the truth I just wanted to see what happens there.
It took a while until Tali agreed to let me in, but in the end I went in, Tali took us around backpacks, and also had thick glass, to me it would have looked like a prison, she always put in complicated passwords, in fact they call people inside the backpack “passengers” it was a bit Strange even to fast but it described very well, the people who live inside these pods ..
In the first month and Tali said he was just an attempt, then they would check with everything right in Tzam’s body, but what disappointed me the most, that I can only visit him for an hour every day, there were a lot of devices with complicated wires, she led us to the energy center, to parents of There were a lot of questions from Tzam and it seemed that Leti had an answer for everything, I would argue with Tzam until we reached my point it was impossible to enter, I touched Tzam’s hand very sadly, and Tali took me towards the exit.
When I waited at the exit I saw a lot of commercials that promise a better life, but I knew in myself that it’s all one big lie, Matzam asked to sign a lot of forms, and of course his parents asked, but finally I found out he would be accepted, and he and I could only be another week together. Him for two years and that’s what made me cry ..

CHAPTER  NINE:
My and Tzam’s week went by too fast, we tried to take advantage of it as much as we could, mostly we met friends especially with Palo and Ding, who also went into the pods along with Tzam, and suddenly I realize we have only two days left two days my life has completely changed …
I decided not to get into these depressions instead of trying to cheer up, I went for a run in the energy center, and Ladi was a strange woman, I did not look at her that much but what I did recognize was her voice …
And suddenly the woman told me – look at me, and again she said – look at me, then she said again – when we go out follow me, but not too close, okay?
I did not know how to react it was very frightening and surprised me …
The truth is after I finished I had to meet with Tzam, but I knew it was more important it was important to my family and most of all to my grandmother.
After ten minutes we finished the energy center, I sent a fast message that I would be late, I believe he will forgive me, I followed the woman at a safe distance, I can say that at some point I was very scared, at some point we reached a place I had no reception, and had no difficulty With no one, and I also processed the woman, I was really afraid it was a trap, and I did not know what to do ..
But finally amidst all the crowd of people I saw the woman and she motioned for me to follow her, I so wanted to run away but when he stopped me, I continued after the woman, she led me between buildings, between very smooth stairs, and suddenly the woman entered a normal house like everyone else’s , And even told me to come in, she told me I’m safe here, and I asked her – why my alternate is not working, she said she turned it off, I was very surprised, I did not know she could do Zua, and even someone else …
She then introduced her name called Vena, The room was almost empty it had only two chairs, a metal table, and a very old sofa, I sat on the couch, Vena sat next to me, Vena started to tell me, but the first thing she said, that they oppose government activity, it was clear to me from the beginning, I had Lots of questions to ask Wena, where did she find me ?, Is the note Grandma’s brother ?, Wena could not answer all my questions but she tried to answer as much as possible, she told me that Grandma’s brother searched for her for a long time, and more she told , Because there is a world out there, and everything the government says about the pollution is all a lie, she said it’s very dangerous to talk about it, and I did not understand why she’s talking to me about it, so she also answered, she said, they tested me first, they They even checked the history of my alternate, before they gave me the fruit.
She further said that they wanted to contact Grandma directly, but there was one problem that she did not leave the house at all, Annie I was very surprised and asked myself do they really know everything about us ?, but she really knew everything even the little details Grandma told me, and also I told her that we too were very careful about the fruit, and we did not tell anyone, in fact only to fast …
It turns out that they also knew a lot about Tzam, even he goes to a “backpack”, I also asked her about the backpack, what does she think of this “idea”, Vena said that this whole thing is just another idea of ​​how to control people ….
Suddenly the door of the room opened, I was very surprised, and then a man appeared, and then how Vena saw him, she said ten minutes, I did not understand what was going on here, and I had to ask who it was, Vena said it was our leader Owen, actually This room was also their control center, and also a room where they manufacture projects like: blocking wrist chips.
I did not believe, to what I heard, everything seemed so strange to me, but I knew that they are all good people who want to help people like my grandmother, or in short people who still have relationships on the other side of life …
I’m sure Grandma would be happy to leave but of course not without us, but Wena said they are still looking for people the government will not “miss”, just like Grandma.
But me what’s most interesting is how the note got here, it turns out it’s simpler than we thought, Vena said they have a secret agent, who works within the government, and he can of course cross the border because of it, and I suddenly felt weird, or it’s actually I started to understand That everything Grandma said was true, but what I had to do was talk to Grandma with her willing at all to take the risk, but most importantly it was silent.

CHAPTER TEN:

After I finished with Vena, I quickly ran to tell Grandma and Mom what happened, but the truth was I had to meet with Tzam, so I decided not to miss the only hour I had left with him, I chose to go to him, and then when I got home I would tell Mom and Grandma ….
When I got to the fast, he was already really worried, because I hosted at, he straight away asked me with everything okay, and hugged me, but what really bothered me was that I could not tell the fast anything I had to be really careful, then I asked the fast to go from the simulator center, all the way around Meat growing lab, I thought it was okay to tell Tzam, I finally decided to tell him, I very much trusted Tzam that he said he would keep it a secret, I told him that I met the woman again, and that she told me everything, everything they do …
At first Tzam looked very confused, he asked me “who are they?” ..

I told him they were part of the plan, that their plan was to help people escape, Tsam’s eyes showed that he did not believe in them and he was kind of distrustful …
After that Tsam spoke quickly and stressed, he said he cared about me, and that I should not risk, he thought it was just an invention, but I thought to myself, with it an invention how they knew all this, how they knew that wild roses have so much meaning for Grandma, despite what all the fasting said, that they could invent the letter themselves, or that they could just find this fruit in the city, despite that I knew it was not a lie, I knew it was true!
But in every sense of the word it was like a “wild dream”, but I knew it was real, at least more real than this “backpack” of his, I knew the truth, that they controlled us …
What I wanted was for Tzam to change his mind, and not believe all these lies that the government was making up.
But it was too late, Tzam had already signed up for this “backpack”, also called, Food Life, but in that conversation Tzam assured me that when he came out of the “backpack” then we would investigate it more in depth …
When we finished talking we went to the simulator center, watched together the illusion of a beautiful waterfall, then we went to the cafe and met Nicky, Palo, and Ding, they talked about food life, so enthusiastically but I felt weird, I felt different, and lonely, but I decided instead It’s to think of Vena and Owen,
And on the dream of living a free life.
Tonight came down and I got home, and then I met Mom and told her about the news, Mom was surprised, but Mom called Grandma to hear too, after I told Delay, Grandma was so excited and said, after all these years, they finally found out the truth, and then I asked her if she was ready to leave, Grandma hesitated, and she did not answer without you ….
She really fought us, she said that Sachim would not leave us alone, everyone was afraid of it, even mom who already had a job here, but in the end everyone wants to live real life really, but it will not happen now anyway, so I believe, that mom And Grandma will think about it well well ….
And Azam came the day that Tzam had to get in the backpack, everyone went to the food center, I was very sad, and also disappointed, but I knew that Tzam in life would not forget me, and even the future with real life, that awaits us.

CHAPTER ELEVEN:

I can say that the first days without Tzam were really awful.
I counted the hours I could talk to him again …
The only thing that occupied me in those days was the dream of the family, the world outside, I went to the simulator center every day and I was hoping to see Wena again and again, and Apat also came with me …
By the time one day, that it happened, I was with Apat in the center of the simulator, Apat was busy with the jumping cars, and then suddenly I heard a sound in my ears, that was Vena!
What interested Vena was what Grandma said about the idea, of course I replied that she was not willing to leave when we were born, Vena looked very upset, she told me that maybe I would try to convince her, but I immediately denied because I knew there was no way she would end …
I had to tell her we’re on her side, it’s just big of us for Grandma to leave like that ….
Finally Vena left without me even noticing, and now we have to wait for her to appear again …

The first week without Tzam has finally ended, it has been a very difficult week for me, but now is the time to meet Tzam, of course not in a real way, these are Tzam talking out of the backpack, and his character appears as a hologram.
Of course the hologram does not look exactly like him, the nose does not look very big, and his lips showed different, but I did not care so much, the main thing we talked about everything we talked about life in a backpack, Tsam told me they learn about government, and they do a lot of sports, But he said that what is most uncomfortable for him is that there is no time to rest, after school they learn that it is skiing, he said that overall the people there are great ….
All in all, these look good tailors, but what I knew and also told Tzam that it’s not true, he does not really know how to ski …
Then it was my turn to tell, I told Tzam that I met the woman again, Tzam seemed very worried, in Tzam’s mind I should stop meeting her, and I told him I had to because I was waiting for news from her …
Finally he had to go to Tzam because his parents also had to talk to him, I can say that this was the worst conversation with him. And he even objected to me meeting the other woman, the truth is that it bothered me a bit …

So what I had to do that would do me good is to paint, but not just paint these are a painting of the real world, of green fields, while I was painting I thought to myself, I wonder why Tzam does not want me to meet the other woman.
After I finished painting, Grandma called me to go with her to her real space, so I really went after her, and there she asked me, how was the conversation with Tzam ..
But I told Grandma how excited he was, but I did not mention his applause, and then suddenly Grandma jumped up and said “obviously you’re doing this”, and stared at the view, and at that moment I really thought it might be dangerous, but what Grandma taught me, there is much Things are dangerous in this life, but to live well you have to take risks, and it is worth fighting ….
Then I realized that just chasing after that woman and interrogating, would get us out of this situation, and even Grandma said she was proud of me …

CHAPTER TWELVE:

The next day I realized that no matter what I had to find Wena, so I decided I had to go to the land apartment that Wena took me to for the first time …
I can say I had a lot of worries about it, I thought a lot about what Tzam said, but this is it I decided to find her, I went exactly the way she took me, in the same corridors, in the same stalls, but was something weird, my alternate did not stop working ….
I finally arrived in front of the door of the ground floor apartment, there was no trace of Vena or Owen, and even more bizarre my alternate kept working, after an hour of standing there, I decided to enter the apartment, I thought to myself maybe they were there, I went downstairs, the lights went out, everything was Dark, when I arrived the door was not closed, I was very scared to enter but I entered, and everything was empty there was nothing, no chairs, no tables, really nothing, I finally decided to go home …
All the way home I thought about it and did not understand what was happening, when I got home I told mom and grandma, even grandma agreed it was very strange, and she also said it reminds why what happened in the oil war, I was tired and worried, I also thought about fasting, he does not believe all this Anyway, it’s true I showed him the letter, but he said it could be from anyone, I said, straight up Grandma jumped in and said, Nonsense I know my brother Aston’s manuscript, and it really interested me how Grandma can be really safe after a long time like this, Mom looked thoughtful, then Mom came up with an idea, she said she could check in the letter’s lab, with the help of DNA, it was a very dangerous step, but Mom promised she would be careful, but I was still very bad because there was no news from Vena, and also Fasting, this week has been very slow for me ….
I meanwhile spent the time on the alternate with Nicky, but the day before the conversation with Tzam I decided to go to the simulator center ….

CHAPTER THIRTEEN:

The next morning I got up for my big day – it was the day I meet with Tzam ….
When I met him or rather his hologram, he told me that this week he and Ding 9 also had a chance to try snowboarding and skiing …
Then Tsam threw away the idea that he was thinking of staying here longer than he should, I was very surprised to hear that, and I asked him if he really meant it, and what worried me the most was he forgot our plans after he left ….
After that I decided to tell him what happened with the letter my mother checked and it was really real, and I told him about everything that happened with Vena ….
But to my surprise he did not remember anything, neither the letter, nor the plan ….
And of course Tzam was also very strange, he told me I should stop meeting this woman, I was very horrified, I did not understand where the real Tzam was, after I finished with Tzam I ran home quickly, to Grandma, and told her that changing Tzam has bad effects at all from this backpack , At that moment I was not calm at all, I knew we had to take him out, but I also knew that if he went out his family would lose a lot of money, which they do not have anyway, so what I had to do for now was wait until he went out for a review in two weeks ..
Then mom came up with an idea to go to mom and dad and tell them because they probably know him best, so we really went to Tzam’s house, I can say I was very strange that Tzam was not there, his whole family was there, his mom and dad, and the two sisters His, they welcomed us …
But the truth is they also talked about fasting, and none of them seemed worried …
I tried to arouse in them the suspicion that something was wrong with Tzam, but I could not tell them anything about Vena, not about the letter, about anything ….
What I did say is he wants to stay there for more than two years, and I said it really worried me, straight his parents tried to reassure me, but it did not help.
They also told me to be careful what I say, the truth is it’s been a difficult time in this matter …
I can say that what annoyed me and worried me was that they were his parents and they did not see the problem, I was really hopeless, I knew that what would help was to convince Tzam alone to leave, maybe his parents would be disappointed but that was the most responsible thing to do …
It’s time to talk to Tzam, but I decided not to tell him anything about leaving, I prefer to wait and see the real Tzam and not a hologram, so much has changed in recent weeks, on the one hand life changes and sees the good and full future possibilities, and on the other my life with Tzam never. Were not so confused ….

CHAPTER FOURTEEN:

It’s today came Tzam’s test days come to an end, all of us, his hues, the sisters, the friends, we got here to the backpack center, and then I saw a technician named Adam approach us, he took us down long corridors, through big glass doors, I already so wanted to meet the Fasting, and suddenly we saw round tables and sat there, waiting to fast, I so wanted to see him ….
I was not sure I had privacy with Tzam, but it did not interest me so much , and then suddenly he comes and stands at the door he looks very confused and pale it very worried me, but hey it is, the real Tzam and not a hologram, I was very excited to see him, Danny led Tsam towards us, I still felt he was not the same, the whole family greeted him, he was happy and excited, but that he took my hand to him it was still different, his behavior, felt everything ….
The conversation went on and on, Tzam told everyone about his experiences, about skiing, about horseback riding, about studies, he also seemed very excited that the government was “worried”, to them like that, I write it down in quotes because I know it’s all a big lie, and that the government is playing they built ….
I really wanted to scream at Tzam’s parents, like what they did not see that Tzam is not Tzam!
I did not actually say it, but since I really wanted to talk to Tzam, I asked myself and Tzam with we had time to talk, the conversation went on and on, it was very long, in a conversation with talked about how it feels, hurts ?, Tzam of course replied no. , He was really in favor of the backpack …
Then finally, they went, and let me and Tzam in the last 5 minutes talk, we talked and talked, I told Tzam about Grandma and Effect and Mom, and Tzam was really interested, and then suddenly the conversation was very good as before, and I realized to myself that the real Tzam was still down there , He just probably needed time to get used to life and people again …..
Then I started telling Lame about the news we had, But I had to be really careful that no one heard, and then I told him we had proof of the letter, I really asked him to get out of the backpack, I really fought it because I really believed that there is a good life outside the city, that Tzam heard it he was very silent , He looks sad and disappointed, and I try to warn him, because I knew these people are just liars, they lie to us and play with our brains, and Tsam looks weird he is unreliable, not to the letter, and did not want to think even stop the backpack, it really worried me, Then Tzam tried to convince me that I had joined this backpack, but I knew I would never do it even though I loved Tzam very much and I knew he would not want the bad for me ….
Then the hour came to an end, I asked them to think about what I said, all the way back home I thought about that conversation, I could not even eat, Grandma also said he was trying to protect me, I knew it myself, but what worried me was that he was listening to government lies ……

But probably what happened is that they forced him to change his way, and in my opinion it’s wrong, even in the oil war, the people kept to themselves, so that no one would change their mind, and I can say that I expected it from Tzam as well …
Then effect 6 my brother came in cordially, we did not tell him much because he was too small and he was able to tell, and it was dangerous ….
What shocked me was the ways the government could get people to talk, it’s awful!
Then mother came up with an idea, that we would look for Vena, and her people that maybe they would help us cross the border, shocked me to think that I should leave Tzam, it is true that he is of the government’s opinion but I still love him …
In any case, we did not know where they were, but I thought to myself, it was clear from the beginning that these pods still needed to control us …
Oh dear diaries you do not know how I miss the real fast, he was such a good person, I thought to myself and even without my ability to fall asleep, that if a fast would not buy me the backpack experience that nothing would happen …
Then suddenly out of nowhere I had an idea, I had to tell Grandma, I found Grandma in the kitchen drinking fruit tea, in fact I remembered what the cell said about the oil war that taught them all kinds of exercises, that they would not break and change their way, everything I want I said That you will teach me them, Grandma stared at me hard, and slowly she nodded her head ..

CHAPTER FIFTEEN:

The next day I went to a meeting with Tzam, of course not his real hologram Tzam, everyone was his parents and his sisters, but there was something strange he did not even show anything strange, but I knew that this backpack changes Tsam …
Suddenly a cheerful voice happened, Zoe was Zi, the same one who guided us through the dolphin experience, Zi took us through glass rooms, and then I saw Ding, he looked very happy, I also saw Tzam from afar, he looked very happy, he kissed everyone , And then he said, I feel great, nirali that this backpack suits me, it does not hurt me at all, and turned his gaze to me, I said to myself this is it I must tell everyone …
Everyone looked at me, there was silence in the room, and I said it, I’m mom and grandma we decided, that I’m also doing the backpack with you fast! I’m doing everything so I might be able to find no the real thirst there, no one in the room were surprised, and another week it happens I said …
Tsam was so happy to hear that, he hugged me, and I enjoyed it so much, and I did not know maybe it’s even our last “” real “moment …
It’s the day I’re hooked up to the backpack, the suit felt cool, and it’s left to me to wait until they’re done checking everything out, Mom Grandma and Effect, came to say goodbye to me, I thought about everything Grandma taught me, and what I remembered most is “Awareness is the greatest weapon there is Go, “I told myself at the end we’ll win!

The backpack started to close, and I said this is a fast I enter …..

  It’s me, Sala, and that’s my… story…

The end,
I hope you enjoyed 🙂
