It didn't take too long for Nicholas and Sophie to retrieve the herb to use as a disinfectant and clean his wounds. However, right before Nicholas could agree with Sophie on going home… the familiar trickle of rain suddenly sounded.
Sophie's eyes widened. "Oh no, it's raining again."
While it didn't rain for the last three days that they were here, except for the occasional light showers that quickly ended when Sophie and Nicholas stayed underneath the trees, this time was different.
Sophie glanced up at the sky and noticed how the clouds were darker and thicker too.
"We need to find a temporary shelter," Nicholas decided.
Sophie agreed with his assessment. The two of them glanced helplessly around the forest and did not know which way to go.
Perhaps it was a miracle that they managed to sleep under the trees before, but now it was different. Sophie took a deep breath and then decided on a direction. "How about we go this way? Maybe we can find a tree with larger leaves?"
