It's still the same as how we arranged it before bed. No sign of forced entry.

No sign that someone tried to lift anything.

I'm also sure a child can't carry that because the ones we block there are heavy.

"Macey?"I repeated "Where are you?"

I felt a small hand on my shoulder.

I almost screamed when I looked back at it. Fortunately, I was able to cover my mouth so that no screams would come out. Otherwise, my sleeping companions will wake me up when they fall asleep.

Macey exposed herself to me as I turned to look at the source of the tiny hand that was holding my shoulder.

"Macey? Why are you up late at night?" I asked.

She sniffed and pointed to his stomach."I want to pee." She said

I blinked a few times.

"Did you wake up earlier?" I asked again, ignoring what he said. She nodded twice.

"Alright, let's find a spot where you can pee." Come here.

I held his hand to guide him into a corner.

We took our steps slowly so as not to make any noise that could disturb our comrades' deep sleep.

When I found a broken flower vase, I showed it to Macey. Is it okay if you use this to pee? We don't have much stuff here. I asked.

She immediately accepted the flower vase I was giving her. She really is in a hurry.

Maybe the child was awake earlier and just couldn't get away because of the darkness. Fortunately, I woke up.

"Done?"

She nodded in response.

She fixed her clothes and held my hand again.

When I got back to bed, I immediately picked him up to lay him down again.

"You should sleep again, Macey." I told her.

She hugged me and laid down again. She hugged Camilla. I went back to bed after fixing the blanket.

I totally disregarded the thought of my nightmare.

Just a few minutes later, I fell asleep again. I just hoped there'd be no other bad dreams. I might have a heart attack. The next day, I woke up to feel a soft pat on my arm. I opened my eyes.

"Good morning, Miss Aya." Lily greeted me.

I smiled in response.

Everyone is awake except Camilla.

Everyone is holding a biscuit. I'm sure it came from Chren because he was the only one carrying a bag containing the food he bought before he got stuck in the forest and was chased by a snake.

After stretching the body, Lily handed me a biscuit like they were eating it. I guess it was a wrap and Chren shared it with us. I thanked them. Soon Camilla woke up as well, and her eyes widened as she stared at us one by one.

"Good morning." I greeted her.

She smiled at me. I guess she's confused.

Lily also handed him a biscuit, which he immediately accepted.

Silence prevailed between us as we ate. It's my first time eating breakfast like this.

After eating, we shared three small bottled waters. Chren brought eight. But we decided to save the other bottles.
