When the guard gave out the question about their identity, it was as if Ahli's worst nightmare came true. The only situation that they wanted to avoid, but somehow they kinda expected it. They knew it would be easy to recognize a non-resident in a small community, and yet they still went to the plan just to gamble with it.
"Oh, they are my nephew and niece. They just came today from Voke." Mr. Gikan's unexpected answer was quite a twist for Ahli and Sharon.
[The old man protected us. Why?]
"Niece and nephew? These two?" Even the guard sounded that he did not believe Mr. Gikan's statement. It was just too casually happening.
"Yes, I've been telling you. Please meet Rachel." Said Mr. Gikan while pointing at Sharon.
"And this one here is her younger brother, Aaron." Continued Mr. Gikan as he shifted his finger pointing at Ahli. "They would be here for a couple of days helping me as I'm not feeling well. Here, see here."
