While resting in between, it took a total of seven days to fully cross the forest.
An entire week.
And after leaving the forest, finally, his phone started picking up a signal.
There were several notifications on the home screen.
[Belle: 73]
And….
[Brandon's and his sidekicks: 22]
It was the group chat with his friends.
Instantly, Brandon swiped it away.
Unlocking his phone and opening the app, he quickly turned off his active status.
There was one person he needed to contact.
Not Belle.
After pondering for a while, it was now time to contact him.
He clicked on the username and tapped the [Call] button.
His phone began ringing.
Ring… Ring… Ring….
But after a few seconds, there was no response.
He clicked on it again.
Ring…. Ring… Ring…
And yet again, there was no response.
Irritated, Brandon quickly sent a message.
[Wakey, wakey.]
