With no words,they continued walking.
They walked for hours until they got to the end of the forest.

"So we're lost."Kayla verified.

"We are not."Zenith said." So let's go."

Obediently, she followed.
"Zenith and his commands."She mummered.
" Ugh....Why do we have to follow such people like him?"

Meanwhile,Ezra had heard everything so he came to Kayla.

"Watch out. He has a clear hearing."

"Whatever. Like father like son."

"Unfortunately he's my cousin."

"Hmm."She nodded.

They walked until they got to a river but much wider than the other one.
They decided to rest but gladly, Astha saw a wooden ship.

"It's so beautiful."She complimented."But it's for who?"

"Me."Zenith replied."I told you we were not lost."

Kayla on the other hand turned from him.
"So are we going in?"

"Of course."Ezra replied and went in.
Later,they all went in and Zenith began to sail.

There were various rooms in the ship shocking almost everyone.
How could such a small ship have so many rooms? That's why it's not good to judge things because of the way they look.

They all chose their preferred rooms.
Leila who was in her room began to think of the nightmare she had and wondered why.

"You are thinking of that nightmare right?"Lucy asked.

She breathed."It's just a nightmare."

"Correct and don't think of that."She replied."Come. Let's make some food."

They paced up and down until they finally reached the kitchen but Kayla was already there.

"You're...."
"Yep."She cut her off."I'll call you all when I'm done."

"Okay....."She said and left with Leila.

Ezra came sometime later. He felt bored and knew Kayla than the rest. He enjoyed talking to her and liked her company.

"Finally someone is peeling."

"So..."She said."Are you going to help?"

"No."He replied and sat down.

"Men."

She did not mind looking at him but he always stared at her.

The way she tuckled her hair behind her ear made him to smile but she immediately turned to him and smartly,he came back to the present.

She placed the apples, grapes and oranges in each plate and placed them on a tray she saw.

She held it and was about to leave when Ezra stopped her.

"And what are you doing?"She asked.

"Helping."He replied.

"And how does that help me?"She asked.

"You really like to worry yourself. You will only get wrinkles so rest and stop pacing up and down."

"Take yours and stop worrying me."

"No give me the tray. I will give them theirs."

"Now you're being a gentleman."

"Yes."He replied.
And she gave it to him.

"Let's go."

They gathered and food was shared equally to them and they really chatted well.
They began to know themselves and they narrated their childhood.
And it seemed things were going well as usual.

Finally it was evening.
They were all in their rooms.
