When the 4 reached the tent side they saw everyone present there. When they saw the 4 coming Nate moved towards them and asked.
"What do you mean by Jennifer's missing?"
"Don't tell me that you haven't noticed that yet," Kane said in an angry tone.
Nate asked her team members to go in search of Jennifer. In 10 minutes time they were back with the news that Jennifer was nowhere to be seen.
"Your search was pretty fast," Jayson said.
Kane noticed the anger which grew on Nate's face and so did Susan. Nate was looking in anger towards Jayson when Tyson arrived near the group.
"I think it's about time that we should inform the police," Tyson said.
"We have asked the manager to do that long ago but I guess she isn't interested in finding the lost things at this place," sapphire said.
"Why should we call the police? Jennifer robbed the pearl and then ran away getting frightened of being caught," Janet said coming there.
"So you won't even call the police for catching her," Susan asked.
"Why should we call and cause trouble to ourselves. that pearl didn't belonged to us to take all that trouble," Karen said as she joined after Janet.
"Then we should call the police," Tyson said."Do whatever you like after going away from here. But let me tell you one thing if you do anything that would cause any trouble to us then you would have it from me and my team members," Nate warned in an angry tone and left.
Tyson was with the four for some time and then left the group. Susan stayed with them discussing few things. It was about 7. Kane told Susan to spend some time with her friends with whom she had arrived at the place. Susan thought for a while and then agreed. She left them and came to meet the others who were sitting in front of the girl's tent.
"Hey guys," she said as she reached there.
She was feeling a lot weird to join them in that manner.
"Hi," Tyson replied with a smile whereas others were least bothered."I need to apologize for everything," Susan said.
"What are you apologizing for," Bryan asked in a rude tone.
"Come have a seat," Tyson said, "It's been a long time after we had a chat with you,"
"Thanks," she said and sat beside Tyson.
"Things aren't going as we had planned," Susan said, "I'm really sorry about that,"
"And I guess we know whose mistake is it that it's not going according to our plans," Amanda said in a cold tone.
"I know all of you are angry. I don't have any explanation for now but I will soon give you each and every answer you require from me," Susan said.
"We don't want to listen any of your excuses," Eric said.
Susan felt very sad about all the things her friends said. She sat with them for a while being ignored or just made felt bad. Tyson saw her in that condition but he was trying to keep distance from her. Susan left the group. It was too dark by now. It was already 9. She went deep in the forest in the darkness without having her torch with her.
"You shouldn't go more in. it would be hard to go back," she heard Tyson voice.
It was difficult to have sensed him following her in that darkness. The moonlight was dim that day.
"Let's sit. It's been quite a while that we are walking," Tyson said.
Susan agreed and they sat down.
