“No, none of us blame you.”

Bernice said, “But Astrid…”

“Don’t drag Astrid into this unnecessarily, she never blamed you,” Elio chimed in.

Feeling the icy atmosphere coming from Elio, Bernice fell silent.

Astrid glanced at her, then looked away. “If you’re tired, you can head back the way we came. I’ve marked the trees along the path. Mr. Naylor, Elio, and I will go find some food.”

Bernice, having grown up in comfort and never experiencing hardship, was indeed struggling. The heat was unbearable and she was considering turning back. The cave was boring, but at least it was cool.

Seeing Astrid leaving, Parrish said to Clyde, “Clyde, you and Odell escort Ms. Bernice back. I’ll protect Astrid.”

“Wait, she doesn’t need your protection! You just want to hang out with her!” Clyde grumbled, but he didn’t follow. He was worried about Odell and Bernice encountering danger on their own.

On the way back, Bernice noticed Clyde’s low spirits and asked, “Isn’t Naylor the leader of your group? Why does it seem like you all follow Astrid’s orders?”
