It was the last night for Simyon, and originally, Raze was meant to cover it. He had been taken away in the morning, and there was no sign of him coming back anytime soon.
The children had even asked Mr. Kron about what had happened to Raze, but he gave lackluster answers such as, "They just wanted to speak with him." Maybe due to Safa living a life without speaking, she had become quite versed in reading facial expressions, and she could tell Kron was lying.
Many of the children could too, as they had heard what the Red Brigade squad had said when they first arrived.
During the night, Safa had snuck into Simyon's room. With Raze not being there, it was her turn to take over, and with not having slept much the night before, she was pretty exhausted as well. But all of those feelings nearly disappeared in an instant.
