All Preslie could think of right was Yesseca's whereabouts. Was she dead? She was so fixated on her thoughts that she didn't hear any of the gunshots. Sheldon was furious when he saw Preslie trying to stand back up.
Containing his anger, he asked, 'Are you trying to get yourself killed?" Preslie looked back at him blankly, "I need to find her. I need to find her," The sound of footsteps was fast approaching.
Sheldon grew nervous as they got closer.
It was too late to run, but the tall grass around them was thick enough for them to hide in.
So long as this woman would keep quiet and not move around.
"Shut up!" Sheldon whispered angrily.
However, Preslie wouldn't stop murmuring to herself and wouldn't keep her head down.
Sheldon then held her down with his hands and covered her mouth with his lips.
Preslie couldn't say anything now.
Her eyes widened in surprise.
This was her first kiss.
It had been stolen from her.
What she didn't know was that this was Sheldon's first kiss too.
Tremaine chose a very good location to jump onto from the train. There was a lot of tall grass around and the ground was soft. Both of them landed safely without even a scratch. After they landed, before Yesseca could compose herself, Tremaine grabbed by the hand and ran.
Several gunshots could be heard in the distance.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTremaine pounced on top of Yesseca at lightning speed.
The tips of their noses rubbed against each other and their lips were very close together, but they weren't touching.
Yesseca held her breath.
Being this close to him, she looked deep into his dark eyes. It was as if they could swallow her up completely. In fact, she was completely entranced by them.
She was so entranced by his eyes that she barely noticed the sound of gunshots and running footsteps. After stime, the sound of guns firing stopped.
Tremaine heard the footsteps moving further away from them.
He then stood up.
After looking around, he noticed that there wasn't anyone around.
Tremaine looked into the thickest parts of the forest.
The other party clearly wanted to kill him tonight. They would have a large force out on the look for him. Having Yesseca with him was going to slow him down. Tremaine bent down and took Yesseca's hand. "Get up." Yesseca was already used to this.
She was in a daze when she stood up and started running with Tremaine. She wasn't sure if it was because she was frightened or if she had been so entranced by his eyes, but she didn't cback to her senses until she reached the forest. Yesseca was terrified.
Although she cfrom a poor family, she had always lived in the city and had never been in a forest before... "What, what kind of place is this..." Yesseca was so scared.
"It's a forest." Even during a crisis, Tremaine exuded an extremely calm and collected aura.
"What... What are we doing going into the forest? There are wild beasts there. I want to leave." When Yesseca turned around to leave, Tremaine stopped her and said, "If you want to live, you need to cwith me," Although the other party wasn't out to kill her, it was dark and there would be stray bullets moving about when they fired their guns. She might end up dying from a stray gunshot.
Yesseca was shocked at what Tremaine had said.
Her head felt like it was spinning in circles.
Then she remembered how she ended up here.
She had gone on to the train to use the bathroom. The next thing she knew, she was getting shot at and then the train exploded. There was fire everywhere and she had to jump off the train.
Did she get on a normal train or was this a death train? "What on earth happened? How could this happen to me?" Yesseca was crying.
Everything felt like a dream.
Tremaine looked at Yesseca.
Although he couldn't see Yesseca's face in the dark, he knew that she was frightened.
Now wasn't the tto explain things to Yesseca, not to mention that explaining things to her now would only make her even more frightened.
Tremaine took out his phone.
Luckily, he still had his phone with him.
He couldn't catch a signal in the woods, but at least the flashlight from his phone would be enough to illuminate the path before them.
Tremaine switched on his phone's torchlight.
The forest was huge and his torch only lit up a small area, but it would have to do.
Tremaine saw a large tree in front of him.
This was it.
He'd be able to find his way out when the sun rose. For now, he had to conserve his strength and get srest. The soldiers out to get him probably had no idea where he was, so he had to make sure they didn't find him.
This large tree would be a great place to hide.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTremaine took Yesseca's hand and walked over to the tree.
Yesseca was still in shock, so she simply let Tremaine lead her by the hand.
Tremaine crouched down and said, "Get on my back," Yesseca was taken aback.
"Why do I need to get on your back?" "So you can climb up the tree." Yesseca silently thought about what he had just said.
She was so scared that she snapped out of her shock. "Why do I need to climb up this tree? I'm not a monkey. What's the point of going up there?" Tremaine glared at Yesseca.
Now that he had the light from his phone's flashlight, he could see Yesseca's petrified expression clearly.
At the stime, he looked even more frightening to Yesseca.
Although Yesseca was just a little girl, she was extremely stubborn.
There wasn't tfor her to be stubborn right now. The only way to get her to move was to scare her into doing it.
Tremaine whispered, "Don't you know where you are? This is a forest, it's full of beasts like woland bears. Aren't you afraid of them coming out to eat you?" Yesseca broke into a cold sweat. "There... there are wolves, and... and lions...?" "Yes." Tremaine nodded.
"Then why don't we just walk out of the forest? Won't it be safer for us to Lit be safer leave?" Messeca was weeping as she En spoke. "On your way out, you may be eaten by a wolf or a bear."
Yesseca suddenly stomped her feet.
"Then why did you bringin Ein here? If you didn't drag the along, we wouldn't have to be afraid of these wild animals!" Tremaine frowned. He didn't have tto keep talking to her like this. He had to move fast.
Tremaine then said coldly, "If you won't go up, then I'll go up myself. Stay here and becfood for the animals," That worked. Yesseca quickly got onto Tremaine's back.
Tremaine looked at her quietly.
"Hold tight onto my neck."
Yesseca had no idea how he managed it, but he was able to climb a long way up onto the tree. They stopped at a very large and sturdy branch. Yesseca was frightened when she looked down and saw how high above the ground they were.
The ground was a very long way down.
She felt that if she fell from this height, her whole body would smash into pieces. "Tremaine what... What are you doing? Why did you climb up so high? Are you skind of X monkey?" Asking questions was the only way to distract herself from how high up she was right now.
