301 Terrible Luck

(Kizhashi's POV)

I ended up getting seperated from them.

I was wandering around in the crowd trying to reconcile with my friends. But as far as my eyes stretched, there was nothing except unfamiliar faces. In this stampede, I only ended up straying further from them.

I just heard the announcement and the fireworks were about to start soon as well. I was standing quietly near a fancy mask shop, watching people walking around in the clamour.

 I was regretting the fact to not charge my mobile before leaving the house. I couldn't text any of my friends because it switched off. My e eyes were trying search for them but in this ocean of people, it was all in vain.

There was no way that I could afford searching for my friends group without risking the probability of missing the start of the fireworks. I stood there in silence contemplating on my next course of action.

Missing the fireworks wasn't an option.
