SHOULD I dig deeper? I think this is okay. Is it? I raised a hand to wipe the dripping sweat forming on my forehead before turning my eyes back and call Edward.

I have been staying here in Amazon, for probably three weeks now - still waiting for him. They went to see Phastos and Makkari on the way to stop the Emergence and.. yes, I am eating healthy foods and following a sleep schedule.

With the days I got to spend in this place, there were a lot of things I learned and realized. I also tried many kinds of work, and I assure you that I can actually join a survival show. I love it here, just a simple life and kind people.

My mind is pretty occupied with work here and there, which was actually helping me avoid the missing hours for Drew. We have a lot to fix, particularly the houses, goat cages, and this - the water irrigation system I'm digging.

Edward came to help and dug the hard part of the dirt. It took only minutes before he finished, which made me thanked him as a respond.

I also made friends here, actually, I've spoke to almost all of them and I somehow found comfort with it.

Every night I think and think, which sometimes prevents me from following the sleep schedule Druig's talking about. I have a lot of questions, and I know only he can answer them. Maybe I can, if I overthink it. I'm just honestly still scared of what's inside me, it just hard to comprehend that I'm an immortal now. Last few weeks, I've been a human that fears death because it can happen at any given time. Now, I am one of the Eternals who sees deaths of those that are close to them.

There is somehow an assurance to myself - That I will never leave him, and that's what keeps me going.

I also thought about Thena, and what she probably feels now that Gilgamesh abilities are also in my system, gushing through my blood stream. What if I ruined his death for her? his sacrifice for them. I'm not sure what they thought of me being an Eternal with their leader's abilities imprinted on my body.

I'm also bothered about Kro's final words to me before his death, about Arishem, and his thoughts about me as an Eternal.

Here I am again - overthinking.

If Drew hasn't really come home now, my brain will continue to curl from these overloaded thoughts.

I shook my head, sighing, and decided to pick up the shovel and plastic bag. I turned my head around but was surprised by the sight of people in the camp, who are frozen on their place.

My eyebrows collided in a spot as I stepped in, observing them. I know what this means. Druig's here. He's here.

A smile crept onto my lip with the thought of him finally being here with me. I put the thing I'm holding onto the nearest whatever place as my excitement rose within me.

I started calling his name and paced around while running. It's weird how I look so happy looking for him while everyone around me is being a mannequin.

I run my head around before sighing and slightly getting upset. "This isn't funny, Drew. Where are you? if you didn't show yourself then I will"

" - you will what?" A voice came out of nowhere, which made me smirk in my place. Is he really playing with me now.

I came to a halt and closed my eyes, "or else I'm not going to pay the thing I owe you."

"Yup, I'm coming."
