40.
He gives a knife to Shrinu .
SENSEI (CONT'D)
This will help you throughout this journey
Sensei then leaves ... Shrinu was now all alone . Firstly he started to find something to eat . He didn't knew what he should eat at this moment cause he never went to a jungle like this before . He found a river nearby , the first thing that came to his mind was to catch some fish .
He had nothing to catch that fish , he was really confused . He just sat there near the river looking at his reflection. He was looking at himself after a really long time . He saw a young guy with beard on his face . And he could see his lonely face . He looked at himself and said
SHRINU
Why are you so pathetic. You have nothing, you have noone , you can't do anything correctly. Why are you still alive .
Tears started to drop from his eyes .
SHRINU (CONT'D)
Why are you alive you have never done anything right . You are so useless...
He started to sob and cry
SHRINU (CONT'D)
(Shouts) Why didn't you die .... why didn't you die . You shouldn't be alive .... (he looks at the sky) ..... oh i see i got a life which is worse than death . Maybe that is what i deserve.
He fell asleep there . He woke up at night when he heard a howling from far away . He woke up to his surprise it was already dark and he had nothing to eat . His stomach was empty , and he knew that it could make things worse for him . Even with superhealing powers he would need protein source . And he had no source of light or fire . He then started to search dry woods, he was searching everywhere and he finally found few . Some were still bit wet , he used his knife to light fire . He striked it to a rock to produce spark . He tried that again and again , but nothing happened . After 30 mins he gave up .
41.
He climbed up a tree and slept there the whole night . He couldn't sleep cause the mosquitoes didn't allow him to sleep .
The next morning....
Sensei comes to visit shrinu and see how he was doing while shrinu was asleep and he understood that shrinu had to try harder to survive . He left immediately.
