Bab 151: Things that the Mouth Can’t Explain

Charm's world had stopped moving. She just went stiff and her mind went blank.

Her world was a passing haze and it was as if someone she was placed in an enclosed space and all she could hear were muffled sounds of whatever was going on outside.

The only thing she could see, was the name of Cliff on the comm device indicating that the call indeed went through.

"Did Cliff hear it? Was he listening? He might have been busy! He might have thought that Seeker had accidentally called him and hang up. That's what normal people do, right?" Charm continued to ponder in her head.

While Charm was going through the denial stage of the four stages to acceptance, Lara had a worried look over Charm.

"That was kind of mean. You should stop scaring her." Lara gave a frown.

Seeker held the comm device and flashed it before the pair to show the name and the time that has passed when the call started.

Cliff Fangwood. Three minutes and thirty-seven seconds.
