—What!” Selah was stunned. She looked from Freya’s hand to Odalys chest, swallowing nervously.

I need to wash up too, or Odalys will leave me behind!” Freya said, jumping out of bed in a hurry.
“She grabbed her toothbrush and ran out the door, looking like she might be abandoned by Odalys any second.
“Selah, seeing this, immediately gave up on her idea of staying in bed and scrambled up to follow.
“After they all finished washing up, Stellan cam

“Without saying a a word. Odalys tucked in the loose strands of Freya’s hair and quickly tied it up. Freya shook her head and found that her hair was ted securely.

Why
“But Finnian and Francis didn’t wait for her. They quickened their pace, following the direction Odalys had gone. Atlas also moved quickly, not noticing that Sophia had been left behind.
“Sophia stood there, stamping her foot in frustration.
“The others moved quickly, almost as if they were worried Odalys might leave them behind.
Why is
no one waiting for me?” Sophia asked, her voice tinged with frustration as her eyes filled with tears. She hurried to catch up with them, but no one slowed down to wait..
“Sophida had always been treated like a princess, doted on and pampered. It was the first time she’d ever been neglected, and it left an unpleasant feeling in her chest
“She jogged a few steps but tripped over some weeds and fell to the ground. Her palms scraped against the rough earth, leaving her with a few cuts.
“Looking up with tear–filled eyes, she saw the others walking even faster as if they hadn’t noticed her fall. No one bothered to check if she was okay
“You guys… Sophia muttered in shock
“They urged her on. “Hurry up! Catch up!” And without waiting, they took off running, moving with urgency

“After all, the forest might be remote, but it wasn’t far from the village. The locals often walked in and out, and she couldn’t believe there could be a giant python lurking around.
Odalys mentioned some obvious signs of giant pythons nearby. They could be in the area right now. You really should leave, or if the python. shows up, we’re all done for, the cameraman replied, quickly hoisting the camera and running off.
“Sophia stood frozen in place, still processing the information. Her cameraman was now behind her, growing increasingly impatient.
“Ms. Bennett, aren’t you going to leave?” The cameraman’s tone had become sharp. He was clearly frustrated, wanting to run away but still having to follow Sophia and film.
“And now that Sophia had fallen behind, he was anxious to get away, but he couldn’t leave her behind either.

“See? My luck is on fire today! I even found eggs. These might even be wild chicken eggs.” Sophia said, winking playfully at the camera.
