Ellie arrived at the exact spot that she normally meets with Nathan in the woods and she didn't see him there. She called out his name severally until her voice broke and she started to cry. Could it be that she made him disappear from their favorite place because of her spoken words? Could it be that Nathan hearkened to her and did as she said? Could it be that she wouldn't see her precious Nathan again? Many questions that she didn't have the answers to flooded her mind and she fell to the ground and tears began to cry profusely.
With her face towards the ground in continuous tears, she stayed there crying and hoping that Nathan would come and if not, she was ready to be swallowed by the dangers of the night. As she continued in that manner, Nathan appeared before her but she was so engrossed with her tears that she didn't notice him.
