THE 20TH ACCOUNT: LABYRINTH'S FINAL DESTINATION 2

We headed back at dawn and Stella was already waiting for us at the shore with her hands on her waist. She was NOT happy. 

"You've done it now, Jacob," I told him as we neared the shore.

Jacob just laughed. When we got off the boat and Jacob began securing it, Stella began hitting him.

"I told you that you can't see her until this afternoon. Why can't you just follow that simple instruction? It's tradition!" Stella said as she continued to hit Jacob with his palms. 

When Jacob seemed to be unaffected, Stella took her slipper off and hit Jacob with it. "Why aren't you listening to me?"

I put my hand over my mouth to muffle my laughter. When I did that, Stella turned to me and pointed her slipper at me, "Same with you, Editha. You should've said no."

Jacob was in between Stella and me in an instant, "Don't blame her. It's on me," he said.
