Reaping What You Sow

After dinner, Alex didn't return to his dorms and was lurking in the shadows. Other students who were done with theirs began to return to their dorms, talking among themselves and oblivious to the fact that they were being watched.

Soon, Dante and his group left the dining hall and were heading back to their dorms but along the way, he suddenly stopped.

"What is the matter?" One of his friends asked him.

"I am pressed, you guys should go ahead, I'll be back soon," Dante replied and made to leave but another of his friends stopped him.

"It's only a short distance from the dorms, can't you hold it in till we return?" He asked him.

"No, I can't hold it in. I must rush," Dante replied and dashed off.

"Should we wait for him?" The boy asked the others.

"No, let's go ahead," they replied and so they all left without waiting for their friend.
