Chapter 23 - CHAPTER 23: JUST YOU AND ME IN THE HUT

Rhianna does not like climbing the mountain. But since it is their school outing. She has no choice but to follow what it should be.

They were starting climbed up to the mountain and Ocean was beside her. While her other friends and classmates were already far away from them even their other classmates. She was so slow and tired doing it systematically.

Ocean can sense it that Rhianna was force to do it for the sake of this outing. He leaned a hand for Rhianna even they left behind already.

Rhianna stopped, "I wasted your time waiting for me here. You just go ahead; I will catch up all with you. Besides, there are signs so no need to worry. I won't be lost."

Ocean frowned. "And why would I do that?"

Rhianna stared at him confusingly. "I mean, you might bore of me climbing very slowly like a turtle." She explained with her fingers scrubbing each other.

Ocean smiled and brushed her hair. "No, it doesn't matter to me at all." He handed Rhianna some water.

Henley shouted at them. "Guys, we will go ahead. We will meet you in the cabin."

Ocean made thumbs up sign for agreeing. He held Rhianna's hand when she continued walking. She never complained when he offered a hand.

They look like a boyfriend/girlfriend thing. Rhianna did not mind at all because she was so exhausted. She even tightens her hand holding Ocean. They could not see any of their classmates anymore.

Ms. Xi told them that it will takes an hour climbing to reach the cabin. They will be putting some tents outside for the night. She was short-winded so hard thinking how much far they have to go.

Rhianna desire to reach quickly, they turned at the wrong path. However, as they continue walking Ocean suddenly stopped. Rhianna got puzzled why they stopped.

Ocean spoke, "I think we got the wrong way."

Rhianna's eyes widen. "What did you just say?"

"I think we got wrong turned. I think this is not the way to the cabin. I do not see some signs anymore."

"Oh my God! What should we do? What should we do?" Rhianna sat down on the ground. "I am scared being lost in the mountain." She was tremble when saying this to Ocean.

"It is okay, you are with me so it is safe." Ocean reassured her.

However, it was just not that, raindrops suddenly pouring from the sky and it will be going to rain if they do not find a place to stay.

"We have to find a shelter first; it might be a heavy rain later. Can you still run?" Rhianna nodded.

They ran holding hands, Ocean was afraid that Rhianna might slip away if he will not hold unto her. A heavy rain started. They do not know where they were going until they found a little hut. It seems it was abandoned but still can be useful advantage for them to stay.

Ocean's phone rang.

"Hello!" He answered.

Henley was on the other line. "Where are you and Rhianna?"

"Where... I do not know where this place is but we are okay. We lost the tracks as we walked the path and did not notice we turned the wrong way. We cannot go out since the rain pouring heavily."

"Ah okay, but you both alright, right?" Henley asked with concern.

"Yes, we are alright and we were here at the little hut since it was a heavy rain nonstop."

"Yeah, we know. Ms. Xi said it was just a low pressure but it might be raining until this evening. We cannot do camping outside. She said that you two are safe or not. And she will ask some help to locate you guys tomorrow when the rain will stop."

"Okay." Ocean said. "Okay, do not worry about us. We have some foods and water with me." Ocean added.

"Be safe out there. We will be in touch." Henley said.

*toot*too*toot*

After the two boys talked, Ocean glanced at Rhianna who was looking outside quietly. He walked beside her.

"What are you thinking?" He asked.

Rhianna looked at him when she heard Ocean spoke then looked outside as she speaks. "Nothing, I did not imagine we were lost in the middle of nowhere here in the mountain."

"Luckily, I was with you the whole time if not, I do not know what to do if you are lost alone in this place." He told her.

She gladly felt that Ocean did not leave her alone with struggling to climb to the mountain. She would have cried and cried a lot if she was the only one here.

They were watching the rain outside, a sound from Rhianna's tummy heard so loud. Ocean was laughing at her.

Rhianna blushed.

'Omg! That was so embarrassing.'

"Here, you have to eat first and I will check around what other things can be useful in here." Ocean gave her pack foods with rice and some meat on it.

'Aaa, so that is why he went early in the convenient store to buy some packs foods.' Rhianna now realized that Ocean brought two bags in him. She was thinking that the other bag was the foods.

She started eating; her stomach cannot tolerate hunger if she will not eat on time. Ocean came back to her.

"There is water in the bathroom and it is clean. You have to take a shower to avoid sickness. We both wet from the rain as we came here." He said as he joined Rhianna sitting on the floor.

There was no table, chairs, or even bed inside the hut. No other things you can see aside from the bathroom. It was a small bathroom but there is a pail and water dipper.

Rhianna takes out her things for bathing and some changing clothes. She stood up and left Ocean eating. She carefully opened the bathroom after 30 minutes; she already changed into her new attire. Her hair was almost dry since she wipes it out the excessing water.
