Chapter 194: 194-And It Is About Time That We Meet

Helanie:

"What was that?" Once we had made our way to Jenny’s cabin, which was much closer to us than the hostel, Jenny asked. We couldn’t focus on our path, as we were still remembering the warden. She would flip if she found us in this state.

Lucy’s hair was a mess, and her shirt was torn at the shoulder. Jenny had many bumps and bruises on her body. My arms and back had pinch marks, red spots, and some of them were even bleeding from the girls behind me who had acrylics on.

"There was an earthquake that saved me in the nick of time," Lucy whispered, her hands clasped together.

"I just don’t understand why those assholes followed you guys," Lamar hissed, giving us first aid.

"That was my karma--" Before Lucy could speak anymore, I had to shut her down.

"Oh, shut up! Nobody deserves to be bullied!" I yelled at her, and she instantly bit her tongue.

"Umm, Helanie!" Jenny gave me an understanding look, wanting me to calm down and not yell at Lucy.

"I’ll see how I deal with them. By the way, Gavin had been looking for you girls," Lamar explained, and while the two stayed silent, I scoffed.

"I heard what he did," Lamar cleared his throat, his eyes seeking my glance.

"A lot happened tonight," Jenny uttered, rubbing her arms, as the rocks had been a really harsh treatment for her.

"But the highlight stayed to be the earthquake. It was unlike anything. Did you guys hear the siren?" As Lamar continued to talk about the earthquake, he mentioned something that perked up my ears.

"You heard a siren?" I asked, suddenly taking interest.

"We all did. Why? You didn’t hear anything? It was right after you screamed," Jenny sat up in the bed, her legs folded under her body.

"After? But I was hearing a siren before that too. It was so loud," I touched my ears as I recalled the horrible sound. It sounded like the voice of someone, but it was merely a siren.

"Helanie! It was only after you screamed. There were no sirens before that," Jenny added, hinting at the discrepancy in our stories. _{ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm}

"Is that why you had your ears covered?" Jenny then mentioned the missing detail, and as I nodded, I saw Lamar cock his head. His eyes traveled briefly to Jenny, the two seeming to communicate silently.

"That’s odd," Lamar finally commented.

However, our conversation was cut off when there was a knock on the cabin door.

"Who could it be?" I asked.
