Saturday:

Today the band concerts were on the program. The kids grabbed something for breakfast at the waffle stand and then walked around the festival grounds. "Did you get a good night's sleep last night?" Mila asked. "Yes. How come? Don't you?" Julian asked. "I couldn't get the boy out of my head. How do your parents actually do it?" Mila asked. "It's part of their job. They help people and take them to the hospital and then life goes on." Caleb said. "I can't do that." Mila said. "Should I call Med and ask?" Caleb asked, looking around. "Yes, please." Tiffany said. Caleb got his phone out of the tent and called Med. After a short phone call, Caleb threw his phone back into the tent and sat back down with his friends. "So?" Bailey asked. "Well, the little one is feeling better again and has already been able to go home. The youth welfare office was also able to locate his grandparents and aunt and uncle. He'll grow up with them now." Caleb said. "Thank God." Mila said. "Does that mean we can now concentrate on the festival again?" Nigel asked. "Yes, we can." Mila said. After breakfast they made their way to the stage. "Which band comes first?" Annabelle asked. "Coldplay." Andrew said. "Cool, one of my favorite bands." Zane said. "Yeah, mine too." Blake said. "Tell us, Caleb. How is this all going to work in Dubai?" Nigel asked. "I don't know yet. The only thing I know is that I will have a small training session in the morning, followed by normal school lessons until lunchtime. Then in the afternoon we have free time and then another small training session in the evening." Caleb said. "OK. Doesn't sound too bad. I thought you had training from morning to evening and only had a break during lunch and dinner and of course at night when you were sleeping." Nigel said. "You watch too many military movies." Caleb grinned. "You definitely have to send us photos." Bailey said. "I'm spamming you with pictures. You'll also see what I'm up to on Insta." Caleb said. "What do you mean?" Blake asked. "Go to Insta and enter 'Inter United' in the search bar." Caleb said. Blake went to his Insta account and entered the name 'Inter United'. "Wow cool." Blake marveled. "Let me see." Tiffany said. After the Coldplay concert they had fun doing various activities until the Backstreet Boys concert started at 2:30 p.m. The Jonas Brothers concert took place in the evening.

There was a severe storm on Sunday night, forcing the organizers to evacuate the entire area.

Sunday:

While the area was evacuated, the storm became increasingly severe. By now it was raining so hard that you couldn't even see your hand in front of your eyes. "Guys, where are you?" Andrew asked. "Here. Come on." Zane said, grabbing Andrew's wrist and pulling him along. The kids ran to the exit, where lots of parents were already waiting in the cars to get their kids to safety. Caleb's friends were picked up by their parents. Andrew, Julian and Caleb were picked up by Kelly and Matt. «Boys, come. Hurry up." Matt shouted. Andrew, Caleb and Julian jumped in the van and Kelly drove off. "Are you okay so far?" Matt asked, handing everyone a towel. "Yes. It's just a little cold right now." Caleb said. "When you get home, you'll put on something dry." Kelly said. "What about our things?" Julian asked. "We'll get them when the rain lets up." Matt said. When they got home, Kelly drove into the garage and turned off the engine. "So, let's get out there and quickly put on something dry." Matt said. The boys went through the connecting door into the entrance area of the house. "Hey boys. Are you okay?" Stella asked. Andrew, Julian and Caleb nodded. "Now go put on something dry." Kelly said. The boys went up to their rooms. "The little ones are back in bed?" Matt asked. "Yes, they are." Sylvie said. When Caleb, Julian and Andrew came back downstairs they were tightly wrapped in their blankets. "Do you need anything else?" Sylvie asked. "Our warm stuffed animals?" Caleb asked, hopefully. "They're already in the oven. "You go to bed now and we'll bring them to you straight away." Stella smiled. "OK. Good night." the boys said. "Good night, guys. Sleep well." Matt said. The boys went up to their rooms and snuggled up in their blankets. When Kelly and Matt went to bring the boys their warm stuffed animals, they were already asleep.
