As he was thinking of a way out, he saw an elderly man with a fearful face. Cole thinks twice before approaching the man.
Cole: "hello! Can you show me a way out?"
Old Man: "I know nothing about this place?"
Cole: "How did you get here?"
Old Man: "The way you get here, that's how I got here"
Cole: "What happened to your face?"
Old Man: "Oh, I was beating?"
Cole: "By who?"
Old Man: "Master"
Cole: "Which master?"
As the old man wants to utter a word, a mysterious snake appeared and they both ran. The man ran as fast as he could while cole tried to catch up with the man. The old man couldn't be found and Cole remains stranded again. He becomes pissed off. He began shouting, "master, master, master; come out!"
A loud voice echoes in the thick forest, "who are you?" Cole answered, "It's me, Cole, send me back home."
The voice: "How did you get here?"
Cole: "I don't know."
The voice: "You must know the reason why your heart is unsettled."
Cole: "I realized that I was drained due to the stress of walking here since."
The voice: "You have been busy before you get here and that's why you're tired!"
Cole: "Can you send me back?"
The voice: "I've nothing to do with your going and coming."
Cole: "How will I go?"
The Voice: "Until someone wakes you up from where you're coming from."
Cole: "Please, don't wait until that time, please, send me back!"
The Voice: "I've no power to do that until someone did in where you came from."
Cole begged and begged for help but the voice repeated the same statements. After some while, the voice vanished, and Cole was left stranded again. He cried as he expects someone from his world to wake him. He remembered some activities to be done before noon. He remembered the food that he ordered.
He was there thinking of so many things when the old man appeared again.
Old man: "You're still here?"
Cole: "Yes!" I don't know a way out."
Old Man: "Did master speaks with you?"
Cole: "Yes, he did when I shouted."
Old Man: "Whatever he says is what you must."
Cole: "How will I get who will wake me up?"
Old Man: "I don't know about that."
Cole: "It been how weeks you're here?"
Old Man: "I've been here for a month."
Cole: "You must have built a home here?" (The Old man: (He laughed), home?"
Cole: "Yes" If not, where have you been sleeping?"
Old Man: "Wherever night meets me."
Cole: "Inside this open place?" That's awkward!"
Old Man: "Nothing I can do to it"
Cole: "How about feeding?"
Old Man: "I eat whatever I see!"
Cole: "I need to get back! I'm allergic to colds"
walk away while Cole tried to talk more with him)
As he was pondering on the voice statements, one of the workers came to wake him up.
Worker: Sir, we need you now sir.
(Cole jumped up in fear)
Cole: "I'm back! I'm back!! I'm back!!!"
Worker: "You've been here since sir"
Cole: "You won't understand." I'm just back from a strange land!
Worker: "It must be a terrifying dream?"
Cole: "Yes, it was!"
He resumed back to work and always find time to rest amidst work.
