[RUKIYA]
Night had birthed day and even then Mbali and Rukiya didn't see any sign of Hawi and Malika. They had gone inside the temple, but stepped out when the sun rose because it was dark and there was nothing they could do.
Even when morning came and they went to sniff around, they couldn't get any hints of the two women. It wasn't what any of them had anticipated and it was safe to say they had gotten to the point where they were panicking.
Rukiya had been trying her best the entire night not to go back home, but then right now with no sign of Hawi or even Malika, the only thing she could think of was that they had left.
But how was that even possible when there wasn't any other portal that had been created outside of the sacred island?
