Fallin Flower's
CHAPTRE 26

Amara finally woke up from her sleep.

"Sw... Why is it so cold when I'm wearing warm clothes." Amara said when she woke up from her sleep. Amara is still not aware that the warm clothes she uses are no longer attached to her body. Only the blanket is still there.

Amara got out of bed and realized that she was not dressed.

"Huh. Oh my God, what's going on?"

Amara began to worry.

"What happened last night? I totally forgot. But I remember a little Ray leading me up the room. What Ray, did..."

"Akhs! Not likely. I was really drunk then. What Ray... "

Amara suddenly smiles, because Amara felt Ray was doing unusual things last night, Amara wanted to find out an answer but Amara suddenly felt nauseous and wanted to vomit due to drinking too much alcohol, Amara ran to the bathroom.

"Akh, I always throw up every time I drink alcohol."

Amara cleans herself up. After cleaning herself with a bath, Amara went downstairs and saw Gerry, Dillon, Sarah and Bonita still asleep.

"Gosh, they must've been drunk last night."

Amara said as she shook her head."But where's Ray and Ned." Amara is confused because Ray and Ned are missing.

Amara came out of the villa to smell the fresh scent of the morning. Amara saw the firewood of last night's campfire that had become ashes.

Amara smiled broadly, not knowing what feelings made her feel happy.

When Amara was in front of the villa. Amara sees Ned swimming in the lake.

"Ned, why is he swimming in the lake so early." Amara Mumbles.

Amara walked over to Ned who was swimming in the lake. When Amara walked, Amara was surprised because he stepped on some sweet potatoes scattered in front of the villa.

"Jeez, why is this sweet potato splattered here? Who tried to burn yams last night? They all feel drunk."

Amara was a little suspicious, but Amara just took care of it, and kept it in the villa.

Amara walked back to Ned who was swimming in the lake.

"Hi Ned." Shouted Amara on the edge of the lake, while walking towards him.

Ned was really surprised, When Amara approached him.

"Look... Why are you here, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, I'm just confused as to why you took a bath in the lake so early in the morning, isn't the water cold."

"No, I feel fresh."

Amara smiled and sat on the lake while looking at Ned swimming in the lake. Ned found it strange why Amara kept smiling like that.

"Did he remember last night?" ask the inner Ray. "Or maybe not?"

Even so Ned felt calm, because Ned felt. Amara doesn't remember anything last night.

"Hey.." call Ned while splashing water on Amara.

"Hey Ned, this is getting me wet. Don't splash the lake water on me."

Although Amara was a little angry because Ned tried to splash water on her. Amara still smiled as her mood was happy.

"Why do you keep smiling? You look like a crazy person."

"What did you say! A madman? Feel this Ned."

They ended up playing water war, they splashed water on each other. Because Amara had taken a bath, Amara was afraid that she would get dirty and wet again. So Amara ran away from Ned to Vila.

Ned was happy after joking with Amara for a while, Finally Ned ended his swim and returned to the villa.

Everyone finally wakes up and they don't realize Ray's missing. Amara, Bonita and Sarah were preparing breakfast, waiting for the men to gather after their bath.

When everyone had gathered at the dinner table, they realized Ray had disappeared.

"Wait, but where's Ray?" ask Ned.

"Wait a minute, maybe he's in the room, I'll call him." Amara.

When Amara went up to the second floor and checked all the rooms there, Amara still could not find Ray. Amara begins to worry, running downstairs to tell everyone that Ray isn't around.

"What, then where's my sister, I'm really worried about her."

Everyone's worried, Dillon tried to call Ray but couldn't.

"All right, now we have to split up. Let's go find Ray first" Gerry said.

They split up looking for Ray all over the villa.

Ned's headed for the parking lot, because maybe Ray's gone home first with his car. But it turns out Ray's car is still in place.

"Gosh, where did the boy go" said Ned, worried about his sister.

"Need. How, did you find Ray?"

ask Amara.

"His car is here, there's no way he's leaving without his car."

"What if we look towards the forest" said Amara anxiously.

"All right let's go find it."

Ned goes to the forest with Amara.

They kept shouting Ray's name.

Ray! Ray! You where Ray is!

They didn't stop yelling Ray's name. And suddenly Ned finds Ray's phone. Yeah, the phone Ray threw away when the black-hooded intruder tried to terrorize him.

"This is Ray's phone" Ned said as he picked up Ray's phone.

Ned turned on Ray's phone which was still on even though the screen had broken because Ray threw it strongly that night.

Ned wants to open Ray's phone, but the phone's battery is weak.

"Mara! I found Ray's phone, but the battery's weak. We have to hitchhike the phone first. Let's go back to the villa."

"Well, Ned."

They all gathered in the living room while waiting for Ray's phone to turn on.

"Do you guys remember where Ray went last night?" ask Sarah.

"How can we remember. We were all drunk last night. I don't even remember anything because I drank too much." Answer Gerry.

"Ray seemed to be the only one who wasn't too drunk last night, because Ray only drank two glasses of alcohol. Ray doesn't like alcohol."

"True Ger, there's no way Ray's gone drunk" Ned continued.

"Overnight, did any of you try to burn the yam?" Ask Amara who is still suspicious of the yams scattered near the bonfire.

"No" answered Dillon.

"Yes, I don't either, why Luna?" 

"Ger, this morning I saw yams splashing near the bonfire. Was Ray trying to burn yams last night at the campfire?"

"Are you serious Lun?"

"Yes Ger, I'm serious. You check there. There's yams in there."

"But... There is one thing that confuses me. Looks like Ray slept in my room last night. He's right next to me."

As Amara said that, Ned suddenly fell silent. "Oh so that's what keeps Amara smiling. Amara felt Ray had slept with her. It's just nice that he doesn't feel anxious." Ned's inner speech.

"I'm actually worried about one thing."

"What Amara?, ekhm I mean Luna. What are you worried about Lun?" Ask Ned.

"Do you remember when Ned picked up the call from his phone that night, he answered the call in the woods. It's like she's hiding something from us."

"Because I was suspicious, I approached him, through the back door of the villa that night. And when I approached her, Ray was crying in fear. Ray said someone in a black hood tried to shoot him."

"And that very night, Ray said to me. There's a guy who keeps on terrorizing him, he's trying to kill Ray."
