They didn't show up.

The Banditos.

The second night I was back in Dema, I went underground. I waited for them for hours. I thought they were coming to get me. I was sure of it.

I was sure of her.

But they never showed.

Every noise put me on edge, and I stood there, waiting to see the light of a torch heading for me. A few times, I even thought I had seen it.

I was kidding myself.

I eventually snuck back up to my room, and when I got there I took the yellow flower out of my drawer.

It was wilting.

Dying.

A lump formed in my throat, and I tried not to see the symbolism. I tried not to lose hope.

I put it back in the drawer and attempted to go sleep for the few hours I had left before wake-up call. But I couldn't. I just kept wondering.

Where were they?

Why hadn't they showed?

Were they coming for me at all?
