The Maze Runner // Minho

Chapter 2

Mother's POV:

Henry has been here for about a week. Minho and I have been running in the maze. Newt also ran with Minho when I didn't and we would alternate days. Today was my day to run with Minho while Newt worked in the garden.

Minho would take the long route and I would go the short route so I would be back sooner because my babies need meh. I know what your thinking: 'your so young you couldn't take care of them'. Honey, I have the nickname Mother for a reason and a good reason at that because those boys are hopeless without me. 

I got back from the maze and went to the map room to record my route. After I went to Homestead to Alby as he looked like he was stressing trying to break up a fight between Zart and you guessed it Gally.

''Gally! What happened and why are you fighting with Zart?'' I yelled wlaking up to them. Everyone froze at the sound of my voice slowly turning to me. 

''Mother! Thank God please help me.'' Alby whispered to me and I nodded.

''Alright sit!'' I pointed to the ground and the two fighting boys sat. Henry looked so confused.

I picked up the stick that was on the ground and held it in my hand.

''Now you can't talk unless you have the talking stick. Are we clear?'' I asked with a stern voice.

''Yes Ma'am'' the said and everyone watched silently, some amused and Henry who was just confused.

''Now Gally what happened?'' I asked him and passed him the stick. ''Well I was fixing the roof for the huts where the Keepers are gonna go and I was fixing Zart's roof. He came in after a shower this morning and saw me on the roof when he walked in. He started giving out that I was peeping on him and that I should go suck a dick becaue apprently I'm gay''

Some of the boys behind me started snickering and I had to bite my lip to keep myself from smiling. I cleared my throat and lookd at Zart. ''Zart is this um true?'' Gally passed Zart the stick and he began his side of the story. Well at least that's what I thought.

''Yes that is exactly what happened.'' he stated nonchalantly with a straight face. The boys behind me bursted out laughing and I let a few giigles slip as well. 

''Um if that is all then everyone back to work and Zart even if Gally is gay don't be mean to him'' I said as they walked away. 

''I'm not gay'' I heard Gally from the distance shout and me and Alby laughed. Today has been an exciting day. 

Later in the day at dinner Minho still hadn't come back. I was starting to get anxious and I think the whole glade could see it. I had this anxious aura around me and everyone could feel it and kind of backed off.

After dinner, I went and sat in front of the doors of the maze. Alby soon came over and sat next to me, putting an arm around my shoulder.

''He'll be okay. He'll be back.'' he said trying to reassure me and I nodded. Suddenly there was a gust of wind and I knew what that meant and so did Alby. The doors are closing.

The rest of the glade caught sight of this and ran over. Soon we were all gathered around the entrance of the maze. I wasn't going to give up on Minho. Not now. Not ever. 

The doors started to close and I saw a figure sprinting towards the doors. It was Minho. Everyone was shouting words of encouragement. I couldn't lose him. Not now. Not ever.

''Come on Minho''

''Hurry up''

''Run faster''

''He's not gonna make it'' I heard someone mutter beside me.

I look to where Minho was. He was almost at the doors but he neede some sort of push. 

With every once of energy I could muster I began running into the maze. I could hear shouts behind me but ignored them. I ran and straight towards Minho. When I got close enough to grab I did and swung him towards the boys and in return flinging myself into the maze. 

As he passed my face, I saw it in slow motion and gave him a small nod as his eyes widened. I landed on my butt inside of the maze looking out towards the boys. This isn't the last time I see them I will see them again in the morning when I get passed this damn maze at night.
