Chapter 17
**Extra Chapter
Gulliver's Log**
Today was the day of my escape. Today, I would finally break free from the dirty hands of that girl, my eternal captor. The best part was knowing I could finally escape to the place I always wanted to be, a mansion worthy of my beauty and elegance. So, when the foolish peasant girl came to feed me, I would leap towards the nearest exit.
"Ha, ha, ha, ha..."
"Gulliver, I'm back. I brought you a tangerine for your cold," she walked towards me with the tangerine in her hand. She removed the cardboard that trapped me in the glass dome, and as she reached her hand closer, I jumped over her arm and escaped.
"Gulliver, don't go out! They'll hurt you!"
"Goodbye, loser!" I shouted, leaping with my tongue out while the chains of freedom broke. But I wasn't free yet; I could hear her close by, and the worst part was she was faster than me. Suddenly, I saw Italian silk on my bulging eyes’ radar. It was a tailor-made suit, handcrafted with delicate sewing and firm stitching. I had to touch it before I died.
"Gulliver!"
"Mine, it had to be mine!" I crawled like a worm all over that hairy man's body. At least he had healthier skin and expensive cologne. Suddenly, everything became turbulent. I heard the girl's voice trying to catch me again. Quickly, I jumped over some round, firm mountains when a strong earthquake moved me. I leaped agilely to another stranger, harder mount. Like a branch in the most turbulent lake, I clung to it until the girl swiftly caught me, causing the Italian silk sculpture called man to fall to the ground, writhing. My beauty had knocked him out. I often caused this effect on frogs of my species... My plan had failed, but the Italian silk and French perfume were in my possession. I would escape again, no doubt about it. I hid among the girl’s hands.
"Gulliver, what did you do...?"
"Don't look at me; I'm just a silk-addicted toad..." I peeked through the girl's fingers, spying the scene. I think this time I had really messed up, but at least tonight I wouldn't miss my insect ration.
