Dear Diary!
Today was a quite weird day. Me and my siblings were touring the house. It was full of corners, suprises and of course doors. In one of rooms, there were a mirror and a wardrobe. There was nothing more. Peter said, that there was nothing intresting and he left room with Susan and Edmund. I approached to the wardrobe and pulled the handle. To my amazement, the door opened. When I looked into the wardrobe, i saw a row of furs hanging. I went into the closet, because I love a smell and touch of furs, it's so calamtive :) I took a few steps back and I turned around, because it was very dark here. I took some steps ahead and I realized that it must be a really big wardrobe. Suddenly, I heard that someting is crunching under my feet. IT WAS SNOW! I was SO scared, but also interested. I turned around and I saw open wardrobe's door and a piece of empty room. I calmed down, that I can always come back.
I noticed a strange light in front of me and I started going in its direction. When I came to this light (it turned out, that it was a lantern), I heard the sound of approaching steps. Then a VERY STRANGE person with an umbrella came out of the trees and stood under a lamp. This creature was just a little bit taller than me. From the waist up it was like a man, but its legs were covered with fur and it had hooves instead of feet. It also had a tail and a red, woolen scarf on its neck. The face of wanderer was strange, but nice. It had a short, pointed beard and curly hair with horns sticking out. It was a faun. When he noticed me, he screamed and dropped the packages, which he was keeping in hand. He was so busy collecting packs, that he didn't hear my greeting. Only when faun finished, he said 'good evening' and started asking me weird questions like: 'Are you Eva's Daughter?' or 'Are you a human?'. It was very schocking, because no one normal ask such a questions. Okey, I know, he is a faun, but this situation was odd. Never mind, I will continue my story.
So later, he finally told me his name - Tumnus. Also, he said, that we were in Narnia and he invited me for tea. I didn't know whether to agree, because it was getting dark. Faun insisted saying that in his house will be fire in the fireplaces, toast, cake and sardines. I accepted the invaitation and we went to his house. When we finally came there, Tumnus lighted a lamp and started doing tea. I, however, toured faun's home. It was a small, clean cavern carved in a red rock. There were a carpet and two armchairs on the floor. On one of the walls there was a shelf with books. I liked his house, it was lovely. Suddenly, faun exclaimed me, because tea was ready. First, we were eating soft-boiled eggs, sardines on toasts, toasts with butter and a lot of delicious things. When I ate my fill, Tumnus started telling wonderful stories. He told me about plays in moonlight, feasts with wild Red Dwarfs and quests for hidden in deep mines treasures. Then, faun took the flute and started to play it. The music was so moving, that I wanted to laugh and cry, dance and sleep. It took hours, when I recovered from the hearing. I wanted to go back home, but Tumnus stopped me. Suddenly, he started crying. I couldn't find out, what happened and I gave him my wipe. Faun said, that he is bad, because he was a servant of White Witch. When I asked him who was White Witch, he told me, that she ruled over whole Narnia and she was the cause of eternal winter. Tumnus kidnaps kids for her. At first, I thought, that he have been doing it in the past, but it turned out, that faun wanted to put to sleep ME and give ME to White Witch! I was terrified! He seemed to be a friendly faun, but after his words I wasn't so sure about his intentions. Fortunately, Tumnus let me go home. He saw me out to the lighthouse. We said goodbye to each other and I returned to empty room through Wardrobe. I closed the door and ran into the hall shouting to my siblings, that I'm here. The reaction of my sister and brothers was surprising. When I told them, that I had been in Narnia for hours, they said, that they just left the empty room with Wardrobe. They thought, that I'm joking. I asked them to go to Wardrobe and check whether I'm telling the truth. And now - another STRANGE thing! Peter walked in the Wardrobe and - attention! - there was a back wall of it! I was shocked, because a few minutes ago I was eating eggs with Tumnus! My siblings said, that I was lying. I burst into tears, because no one wanted to belive me. It was a horrible situation.
This afternoon, me, Edmund, Peter and Susan were playing hide-and-seek. I went to the Wardrobe and when I heard some steps in the hall, I just jumped into it without thinking. I went to Tumnus house and we ate a little dinner together. Fortunately, White Witch did nothing wrong with him. On my way back home I met Edmund! He said that he was looking for me. I was happy, because now Peter and Susan will believe me! When we returned from Narnia, I found my sister and brother quickly and I told them, that I was in Narnia with Edmund. But then my brother denied and said, that we had been just playing such a game. I just looked at him and ran out of a room. It was too much for me.
Eh, that's all for today. Quite strange story, don't you think?
