Escaping hell's festival

Chpt 16: "Satan send his buddies Bad luck and Misfortune to haunt us."

Ayla's P.O.V

I'm starting to relate with Anna. Something definitely doesn't add up and it keeps nagging in the back of my head. Luckily we're almost out of here. What are the odds of something unfortunate happening again?

Today is replaying in my mind. A lot happened today. I remember arriving, everyone was so careless including Anna. I remember Brad took my hand when we were walking behind the rest through the festival. He gave me a look of why-the-hell-are-we-actually-hiding-this-because-it's-fucking-ridiculous. I couldn't agree more with him. If I think back at it, it's probably one of the most ridiculous decision ever.

Looking back at the point Brad and I really realized that we didn't have to hide it anymore (not that it worked) and further, we had a lot of crappy stuff, but also nice moments. It felt fricking amazing to be able to tell Pricilla off and just enjoy the moments with Brad to their full extend in front of our friends, who only smiled happily at the sight of us.

"Ayla!" I hear Brad call out my name.

I look around and spot brad in the distance. How did he get there? Who I don't see is literally everyone else.

I walk towards him. He scans me with a worried expression, as if he's checking for any injuries.

"Where is the rest?" I ask him.

"I don't know, we lost each other so sudden. I spotted your blonde hair in the crowd and called out to you, to make sure it was you. Luckily it was." He explains.

I look around me to see if I spot any traits belonging to my friends. Things like Jace his slightly tanned skin and dark blue cardigan, Devin's hickory brown hair and dark red sweater or Anna's navy scarf and metal black hair moving swiftly through the crowd.

Unfortunately I spot none. Brad notices and decides to comfort me.

"Let's stand near that stand." He suggests and points towards the stand. "I'll ask the rest where they are in the group chat."

Ur6ft7yearold – 22:29: Where did everyone go? I thought Devin's plan was designed to NOT lose each other.

I chuckle at Brad's text, thinking how Devin devised a whole plan to avoid this. Well jokes on us because, Satan send his buddies Bad luck and Misfortune to haunt us.

UrfavBurrito – 22:30: I have no fucking idea where I am, but where are you?

Ur6ft7yearold – 22:30: I'm with Ayla at the food stands near stage 1.

UrfavBurrito – 22:30: Then I'm on my way. Do you know where Devin and Anna are?

Ur6ft7yearold – 22:31: Nope, we'll just have to wait.

Unlike the first time when I was just pissed at the whole situation of losing each other, I also feel very unnerved this time. It's weird, there's nothing really different this time. In fact last time I was alone and now I'm with Brad, so why am I so concerned about the whole situation?

"Should I call Anna?" I ask Brad.

"You can try."

I pick my phone out of my pocket and call Anna. If her phone is close she picks up after the third ring and if she doesn't pick up, she usually calls you back within 5 minutes.

First ring, nothing.

Second ring, nothing.

Third ring, still nothing. She should pick up by now.
