What is this!? The paper has a text saying give me back my life. I dropped the paper then as I looked at it again, the text disappeared, It was just an empty one. I saw Lauren approached Claire then she handed her some sort of paper.
"Found it!" Claire shouted. Lauren probably got shy of saying that so she gave it to claire.
"Everyone, we have a winner for our first activity" the coordinator said while waving up her hand. The other students stopped from searching then the coordinator gathered us while falling in line, by our respective groups.
"We did great guys, let's keep going" Claire said while giving us four a high five. "Thanks to Lauren's sharp eyes, great job" she said then she tap Lauren's back.
"I'm waiting for the prize, what could it be?" Neil said while obviously cannot wait to know what the reward could be.
"Some food you think?" He added.
"Maybe some kind of a special service?" Fiona said while looking at herself on the mirror on her cellphone. She's way just like Shiela, I suddenly thought of. I wonder out of nowhere, What was shiela doing right now? I think it's way much fun if she's here joining us.
"We'll just wait for it later" Claire said while looking on us.
"For now, we will be going back at our camp site to eat our lunch. For the winner team, Please proceed to the teacher's area" the coordinator said.
"Yahooo, we'll going to get our prize" Neil shouted, he's like some child who was given a candy.
"Come on guys, let's go. Also, keep it down you childish frog" Claire said while pinching Neil's nose. "Stop it, you're gonna get my mask dirty" Neil said then he touched his nose.
We went to the teacher's area but the coordinator was not there already.
"What now? The coordinator is not here" Neil said.
"Maybe she's just kind of busy by now" I said.
"Let's just get back there for now and eat our lunch" Claire said then she started walking.
We followed her then once we got back to the student's area, we get food on the table provided by the coordinators. Lauren and I decided to eat on the corner, beside our tent. We sat down and she looked at me.
"What are you thinking earlier?" Lauren asked out of nowhere. Lauren surely like to ask out of nothing, she just easily got worried everytime.
"Nothing, it's just that I suddenly thought of Shiela" I said.
"Shiela?" she asked. "Yes, do you somehow noticed her on our classroom?" I said as I get my cellphone and show her a photo of shiela.
"Yes, Who wouldn't notice her? She's always shouting inside the room" She said which made me laugh quite loud.
"You're right, that blonde pony always does crappy things. Well I got used to it, she's my best friend and she might be acting like that always but that blonde pony has a big heart, I swear" I said while looking up trying to think about other positive statements I can say about that blonde pony.
"You two seems very very close, I want to know her, can you help me?" Lauren said while smiling at me. It's good that she's interested on getting along with shiela.
"Great, I'll introduce you to her once we get back from the camp" I said while smiling at her, obviously looking happy.
"Come on Let's eat" I added then I took off my mask.
"You have such a nice mask..Mei" Lauren said out of nowhere while looking at my mask.
"I think I bought it in the market before, Well I can't quite remember" I said as I took a bite of what I'm eating.
"I want that too, I want the same as Mei" Lauren said while still looking at the mask.
"Then I'll buy you one once I get to see that mask vendor again, that is if she still has the same as this one" I said to her while smiling.
She smiled at me,a s if she's really really happy from what she heard.
We just ate for about 10 minutes and a little while later, the coordinator stood up in the front again, maybe she's gonna announce the next activity.
"Everyone, eyes on here. We are about to start the next game, Are you ready?" the coordinator said then all of a sudden, the students started shouting again.
"Yahooooo"
"Let's do it!"
"Readyyyy"
They seem very happy as well as me. "Now listen very carefully. For our next game, we will be doing hide and seek. Now here's the mechanics. Each group leaders will have to pick a paper. The paper contains either to hide or to seek. The group who will get to pick To hide will hide of course but for ten minutes, and the other group who picked the seek role will search for them. Now, you will either do your best to hide or to seek depending on what role you're in" The coordinator said.
"Let's do it, did you guys get to be sleepy while listening to the coordinator too?" Neil said which made us laugh.
Since Claire is our team leader, she is the one who picked a role for us.
"What role are we in?" Fiona said as Claire approached us.
"It's to seek" Claire said. "The field is quite big and bushy so we have to make our eyes sharp okay?" She added.
"Okay" We shouted. A little while later and the game starts. We decided to saparate since the field is so much bigger than the first one. It's way too much bushier here,t here are way more plants and trees. The coordinator said that if ever we get lost, we don't have to worry about it. We just have to call our representative to report it to them.
I am currently walking by this bushes here. It somehow hurts the skin on my arms. I hope Lauren wouldn't get to be lost. I'm worried about her a little but she's smart, I know that she'll manage. Claire, fiona, and Neil should be fine as well.
"Mei" someone call my name, but I can't see anyone. "Mei" It calls again. Are they teasing me? Just you wait I'll find you.
"Pik-a-boo" Someone said. It appears in front of me. My heart is beating so fast now. That little girl, why is she here?
"Mei, Come play with me" She said then she run passed me.
I don't know what to do but my feet suddenly walks by itself. It's following the direction where the little girl went to.
I looked around but, I got lost already. I don't know how to go back. Suddenly, I felt something on my feet. It's a rope, it's quite big and mossy. I picked it up and I follow it through its end. It brought on a very large tree.
"Oh my God" I murmured then I covered my mouth with my hand. I closed my eyes, I can't look, I can't take it. I can't breathe by what I saw.
I saw three people, and they're looking at me while hanging in the tree.
