`Hadwin, I'm about to drop her at her place. Don't ask anything with your mouth or your eyes. Do you understand?' Ace turned to look at Hadwin when he neared the Route 3 bus stop.
`Uh-huh. Why?' Hadwin looked outside and saw the familiar road where he knocked on his sister's car.
`If you open your mouth, and if she gets upset, we are both losing her', he whispered angrily at him.
`Okay, I will pretend to sleep ok', Hadwin took a tissue paper, covered his face and closed his eyes, using his hands as pillows. This should do.
Ace parked the car away from the bus stop and looked at his watch, at 4.10 pm. He gently nudged her and called her name.
Astrid woke up and rubbed her eyes. She looked outside the car and realized where they were. She turned behind her to see Hadwin asleep. She looked at Ace and raised her eyebrow. Ace placed and index finger on his lips and shushed her.
