Gregory's point of view:

( next day in Clementine woods )

I suddenly opened my eyes as I feel the itchy and stinging sensation on my arms and face. And my whole body ached terribly. And one last thing, my stomach only screamed for one thing— food.

The morning sun was shining brightly at me, I hear the chirping of the birds .. and the warm heat that the sun gives.

I automatically smiled the moment I remembered the sudden events last night. It was almost unbelievable. Until now, I still can make myself believe that it actually happened. Clara cried in front of me, she let me saw her beautiful smiles .. and she even let me sang for her.

I found myself smiling like an idiot.

I was about to stand up and get my things on my bag when I realized something.

My eyes widened.

Darn it!! Where is she?!

Shit! She's gone!!

I Immediately stoods up, not even minding my aching body and itchy face. I quickly made my way into the tall grasses and find Clara.

She couldn't be gone again .. please.

I can't afford to lose her. I would still choose to lose my life in this forbidden woods than to let Clara got hurt. The first thing on my mind right now? I'm going to find her again.

" Clara!! Please come back here!! "

No response.

Because of frustration, I kicked the stones on the ground and groaned, burying my face on my palms. I can't believe I lost her again ..

I'm so stupid!

" Hey .. Good Morning. "

I spun around to see where that beautiful voice came from. I smiled and quickly made my way towards her. She's really a breath of fresh air.

She wearing one of my shirts, her hair was a bit messy and she had that lovely smile on her face. And she's carrying some leafy things in her hands. Damn, she made my day with that priceless smile.

" Where you've been? I've been looking everywhere for you. " she said, her face, looking confused.
