I stepped out from the shower. "Honestly...". I began using my grey towel to dry myself off quickly. I walked over to my bed and picked up the clothes I had laid down, quickly putting them on after I was dry enough. I had a bad feeling in my stomach. Had I eaten something bad the previous night? No. Impossible. I ate the same thing we ate every night. The same supplies that we'd received every so often from Barbara. So what was it? Why was I feeling like this? I shook my head and stood up slowly. Maybe it was just a bad feeling. I walked out from my room and sighed as I stepped into the familiar hallway. The hallway of bedrooms this was. That led to the common area. And said common area led to the supply room, the kitchen, the training room, and the exit. But something was off. And after two months of normal, it was easy to notice. Charlie's room door was wide open. He never left it open like that. Not even a crack. I walked over and peeked inside. "Charlie?" I frowned as I saw that the lights were all off. I turned on one and saw that his bed was empty. "Odd."

I walked back over to the light switch and turned it off. I wonder where he is. I left his room and gently closed the door. "Charlie?" I called out and walked through the hallway. Still no answer. Where the heck was he?

"Oh my. You're looking for Charlie?"

I turned back to see Jacob standing behind me, smiling. "Yes. I am. Have you seen him?" I leaned down to his height.

Jacob nodded. "I did. I saw him earlier. He was talking about saving someone. But it was really early in the morning, so I just went back to sleep." He rubbed his eyes.

I held my head in frustration. He wouldn't have. "Thank you, Jacob."

"No problemo." He giggled and walked back towards the room he and Emma shared.

I then sighed and began walking around, looking for Charlie. The bad feeling increased.

"Worried?" I glanced up at Anderson. "Washington, you've known me for a while. I don't get worried easily."

Anderson nodded. "I suppose. But there are some dangerous people in the world. And I believe that Jessica girl isn't someone who can be trusted." He reached up and patted his grey hairs. "I may be getting old, but I'm still good at reading people."

I sipped on my glass of red wine. "I know you are. I trust you far more than her. But, I want to talk about that Granddaughter of yours. Barbara, you said her name was?"

"Yes."

"Do you believe she can take over once you're gone?" I asked bluntly.

"Over the past year, I've been testing her out. I even faked my own death to see how she would react, and so far, she's produced results that I have deemed worthy." He glanced around the bright red room. "This room looks lovely. Like most of this place."

"You're changing the subject, Washington. Are you worried?"

He let out a sigh. "A bit. I'm worried about my son. He was never the most emotionally stable. I ignored it in the past, but it seems that it worsened. Even after I took Barbara away."

"Where is he now?"

"No idea." He shrugged. "Another thing I'm worried about is Charlie. He still doesn't know. Or so I've been told by Zeke."

"Doesn't know about that thing you mentioned earlier?"

"Exactly."

"I'm sure you'll figure something out. But I'll have to end this little meeting of ours." I smiled sweetly and stood up.

"It was nice seeing you again, Mire."

"You as well, Washington."

"Come on. We've gotta get through this part of Marywood before the sun comes up." I told Rashall.
