palace. They were missing forever. The adults have moved away in this few years.”
“What should I do? Gilbert had just recovered. Don’t take him from me!” His father said.
At this moment, there was a burst of psychedelic music come from the palace. Gilbert seemed
to be under the control of the music, he heard that someone was calling him. He walked to the
palace. He could not hear the sound of his father and Scott. He realized that he should not walk
into the palace, but his footsteps were uncontrolled.
“Gilbert, come back! It was just an illusion, stop. Don’t keep going!” His father shouted and
tried to stop him from the way to the palace. But this is obviously not working.
“I must find a way to save him. I won’t let my friend in danger.” Scott said.
The gate of the palace was opened; Gilbert was going to walk into the palace. “Please don’t
take my son from me, please!” His father cried, he do not know what to do.
The door closed slowly, very slowly. His father’s heart almost stopped beating. Just at the
moment of the door was going to close, the little spider jumped in front of Gilbert. Scott was
caught in the gap of the door, it pushed Gilbert with the greatest strength. Then Gilbert was awake
from consciousness. He saw Scott was caught in the gap.
“Scott, come out! You said we will be everlasting friends. I promise you I’ll take you to my
home and we can live together.” Gilbert cried and said desperately.
“Gilbert, my only friend. Don’t cry. Stay with you is the best time in my life. I will never
regret to know you and be your friend. Save you is the last thing I do for you. Goodbye. ” Scott
said with smiled.
Boom! The door closed. Scott was dead in the gap.
Gilbert never thought that he would meet a talking little spider in Gobi desert; he never thought
that he almost died in the desert; he also did not expect that this little spider could save his life.
Gilbert and his father end their journey in Gobi desert and back to their city. He never talks
about the story of Scott and what they had experience in Gobi desert with others. It becomes a
secret between Gilbert and his dad.
Until now, each time he sees a spider, it reminds him think of Scott. He still can hear the
whisper of wind and sun in Gobi desert in his dream. And…the whisper of Scott.
