It was four o’clock in the morning when it began to drizzle, and Darryl gave in to sleep again. This time, he dreamt on and off throughout, and he vaguely felt someone kicking his leg.

He suddenly woke up and looked up to see Dax standing by the door staring down at him with a huge grin on his face.

“Darryl? Are you trying to make me laugh at you being my guard? Haha!” Dax laughed, rocking back and forth.

In this instant, Darryl’s eyes watered as he tried his best to hold back his tears.
