"It's probably the ninth day of survival."
Ivan recalled the situation at that time: "I encountered that elephant in a swamp, a fully grown male African elephant, very strong!"
"I immediately chose to detour, but to my surprise, that elephant was very hostile to me!"
Saying this, Ivan sat next to Vanessa's hospital bed, holding her slightly pale hand.
The two were partners as well as lovers.
Vanessa was captivated by the story, urging Ivan to continue, but didn't withdraw her hand.
Ivan then continued: "The elephant left the swamp and started to chase me, but there was a dense forest surrounding the swamp, and since I fled in advance, the distance between us was quite far, so it didn't catch up with me."
"But just when I'd waited for half an hour in the dense forest, planning to continue forward after it left, this elephant actually blocked the dense forest and didn't leave."
