"Hey, Lin! Look, another shortcut!" called out Aigerim, baring her teeth at me in a cheeky grin. Standing no more than twenty metres from her and breathing heavily in the quiet, almost serial killer like forest, I glared at her. The words, when they left my mouth, were completely justified.
"F*%k you and your shortcuts!" Ten minutes earlier we had just scaled an impossibly vertical hill whereby we both resembled horrible mutations of goats crossed with spiders. Meaning we had been pressed to the hill on all fours, shuffling, leaping, sliding and crawling our way up. True, I was the reason we had ended up there in the first place but it was Aigerim who had chosen the non existent path through the forest, because it would be the 'fastest' way.
