Section 79: Parting Ways

I found myself falling asleep on the ground with Joel. The rest of the children had already fallen asleep. I looked at my cell phone that I just grabbed from my pocket, with its infinite battery I looked toward the clock.

"Five" I muttered drowsily.

I stared at Joel who slept next to me as he hugged me protectively. He's pulling me into his chest, his warmness permeated through my cold body. I could slightly feel her rapid heartbeat as I snuggled close to his chest. Is it alright for me to seek comfort in this man? I feel guilty for depending on Joel.

Lately, he's been very helpful and patient in handling my anger issues. It's like he knows me well now and accepts me whatever I am. Perhaps, I'm reading too much into his actions. My mind wandered into that man shadowy figure, Ender. I wonder whether he survived, he wants to save Adrian because of my selfish request.
