Part 6

After leaving the store, the girls and I walked around the mall stopping at different locations for them to buy more clothes, at one point we met up with Adriana and August at a shop full of plushies and cute home supplies like water bottles, pans, pillows and so much more, I ended up leaving with a new water bottle and a little family of 4 fruit-themed turtles. Throughout the mall, I met 3 people from the group, the guy who spilled water on Haze was Ronan he was walking around with a girl named Willow. They were a cute couple, and they were so sweet. we couldn't talk much because August wanted to go for ice cream, but I'm looking forward to getting to know them.

on the way to the ice cream shop, there was an AT&T. I guess it was a sign. "Hey, I'm gonna go get a new Sim card you go without me" "Now?" August asks "Yeah I've been putting it off for a while I'd rather do it now than forget later" What else was I supposed to say "What flavor do you want we'll buy you a cone" Clove intervenes "Oh no it's fine I can buy some later" "I insist think of it as a welcome gift" they really like buying gifts

"vanilla ice cream"

"That's basic"

"It's a normal flavor to like and it can almost never taste bad"

"she has a point," Riona says

"I'll choose your flavor for you," August says, that doesn't sound like a bad thing.

"why not, just don't get pistachio or mint chocolate"

"I get that, do you have any allergies?"

"Not that I know of"

"perfect" With that he dragged the rest with him away

I went in the opposite direction into the AT&T store.

It didn't take long to replace, I've changed my number dozens of times before. As I was leaving I put Elenor's name in my contacts and texted her and said that I'd landed, I'm guessing she was asleep. She's been awake since 10 am yesterday so she and I can have a day to do some last things before I leave. I didn't want to bother her so I kept my message short.

"Hey, it's Ellari, I landed and I'm safe,

"Text me when you can and I'll tell you everything that's happened"

not long after the group came back with August holding two ice creams, he handed me my cone which consisted of two scoops of what looked like cookies and cream and chocolate with some chunks with what I'm guessing is fudge on top.

"what flavors are these?"

"cookies and cream on the bottom, chocolate with brownie, and milk chocolate fudge on top" August proudly answered

I tried it and honestly and didn't give me as much of a headache as I thought it would, it's not too sweet but also not bitter.

"It's good"

"right? The hot fudge with the cold ice cream makes it so much better "

before I could answer his phone rang he walked  away to answer

"So can I get your number?" Keliana asked

"yeah sure," I opened my phone and went to the contacts so she can put in her number just as August came back saying "Haze wants us to go back to the car, he wants us to get back home before tomorrow morning. After handing me my phone back Keliana began talking about how Haze is a fun killer and that he should loosen up more. I think he has a point we've been here for the past two hours I don't think they were initially going to stay this long.

We made it to the car and Haze wasn't there neither was Adriana, clove took it upon herself to call them and as we were waiting I added the rest to my contacts.

I looked around to see that nobody else was there except our group. Everyone else wasn't there until a few minutes after the parking lot became filled with people, Adriana was the first to come over. Then haze, August went and hit him the same way he did at the airport
