Celeste and Lawrence spent the next week or so, gathering food and getting back their strength.
One gloomy dark morning when Celeste picked up a newspaper which had floated down the river. In bold print across the the front page read,

The police are investigating the scene looking for any evidence that may lead to their whereabouts.

Celeste and Lawrence gathered their belongings once again. Lawrence filled an old water bottle with river water. They began to walk, a long walk to nowhere...
