[Margaret's Perspective]
[I'm going to the dining room for breakfast. Look for me there!]
I wasn't at all surprised to see Elizabeth's reply.
This was Elizabeth. I guess she was just like me when I called earlier. She hadn't gotten out of bed yet.
I got out of bed, picked a pair of sneakers from the shoe cabinet, and put them on. I simply packed my backpack and walked out. Donald's guards outside the door did not stop me. As I went downstairs, I texted Donald and told him that I was going to the restaurant to look for Elizabeth.
Donald was willing to give me the freedom I wanted, so I was unwilling to betray his trust from now on.
When I arrived at the restaurant, I walked around the hall. There was no sign of Elizabeth.
I wondered if she had left the house yet.
