Chapter 5 - Aftermath

Gauri's POV

I had to follow Beatrix to the shop to buy the clay since we had already made a plan for the lucky charm since she wanted to give it to her sister Rayna.

I won't mind doing so since it reminds me of Rosaria with the help of Warren and Fallon to plan of making a gift just to root for me to stay in the game.

I saw a puzzle frame who was inside the small shop who was waiting to help the customers to buy the things they needed.

Puzzle Frame: Hello! Welcome to my shop! Buy anything you need.

Gauri: Do you have polymer clay? Any colors available?

Puzzle Frame: I do have those.

Puzzle Frame proceeds to look for the colors that are available in his shop.

Then I saw him go back to show us the colors they have for the polymer clay.

Puzzle Frame: Here are the colors that are available.

What I saw on the table has the color lime, light brown, cyan, pink, and yellow polymer clay.

Puzzle Frame: That's all I have in my shop.

Beatrix: I'll take all of that.

Gauri: Wait, are you sure?

Beatrix: If I can make it creative.

Puzzle Frame: That'll be 25.

Beatrix: I'll pay for it.

Gauri: No let me.

Beatrix: But..

Gauri: Fine, we'll split the bill. I'll pay 13 while you pay him 12.

Beatrix: Fair enough.

I paid him with 13 coins while Beatrix paid him with 12 coins.

Puzzle Frame: Thank you! Have a nice day!

Gauri: That should do.

We went back to our cabins where we parted.

Beatrix: Thank you for planning it out, so I can make the lucky charm.

Gauri: Read the manual before you bake it. If you don't understand the manual, ask Rosaria. I'll be busy with my daily life.

Beatrix: Oh alright. See you!

I saw Beatrix getting inside the cabin so she could start making the lucky charm while I went to the pond which is my favorite place to relax.

I grabbed the book that was with me, since it's one of the things I cherish that can help get through bad times.

Capri: Gauri?

I turned around and saw Capri waiting for me to respond.

Gauri: Yes?

Capri: Can I ask you some questions about the last time that you heard about your sister I mentioned?

Gauri: I'll answer them based on my memory, so go ahead.

Capri: When was the last you saw her?

Gauri: When me and Odelia went to the amusement park in a different city. She disappeared by the time when we were about to go home.

Capri: Are there any clues about her disappearance?

Gauri: About that...

I gave her a business card where the entire writings are smudged except for the logo.

Capri: I see... Damnit...

Gauri: I have tried my best since it's been five years..

Capri: Fair enough. Should we ask Colton about it since he's a detective, despite the fact that Pierce doesn't believe in any detectives?

Gauri: We can talk about it after the game is finished. I mean we can't leave the competition set, remember?

Capri: Oh right...

Gauri: It's okay, I mean the cops won't help much.

Capri: We can plan once we go back to the normal world by the time the competition is finished.

Gauri: I mean I don't know what's special about the business card when I go look for her around the amusement park..

Capri: Guess she reminds me of my good times with her and Camila.

Gauri: What made you remember them?

Capri: Not only memories that we get to hang out together, but also the outfit that neither of them gave me as a gift that I wore before we turned into objects.

Gauri: Oh...

Capri: So yeah.. it's like a remembrance for the three of us...

Ouch, that explains why she missed her childhood friends, which includes my sister, despite the fact that I didn't spend time with her much when we were kids and that I have priorities in school.

Gauri: I understand that you also miss her since you're her friend. She really meant a lot to you.

Capri: Thanks, that means a lot. I'm going to hang out with my friends outside our cabins.

Gauri: Alright, have a good night.

Capri: Thanks, you too.

I saw Capri leave, I decided to go back inside the cabin to calm down about the thoughts of my sister's disappearance.

Meanwhile, with Pax and Bryon

Pax's POV

Looks like I have to stay inside the cabin to spend time with Bryon.

I wonder what's he up to?

I went inside the cabin and saw Bryon who puts the flowers that I gave him earlier inside the vase since he wants to keep it.

Pax: I see you love the flowers I gave you.

Bryon: Oh hello Pax..

I decided to give my lover a hug.

Pax: So how are you today?

Bryon: I'm doing great after what happened earlier. How did you know I like you more than a friend?

Pax: (Shoot.)

Pax: *blushes* Just say I read your diary...

Bryon: *blushes* Eh!?

Pax: Hate to say it but I saw your diary opened and on your night desk last night. Don't worry I closed it afterwards.

Bryon gave me a hug.

Bryon: Please don't do that again...

Pax: Sorry..

Bryon: I forgive you.

Pax: Are you sure?

Bryon: I'm definitely sure, since you already know since you said you also love me.

Pax: Oh...

Bryon: Can I stay with you since I have nothing to do?

Pax: Of course hun.

Bryon: Hm?

Pax: Sorry- It's just that I called you by the cute code names that I can think of.

Bryon: You can call me anything you like.

Pax: Are you sure?

Bryon: I think the one you called me earlier will do.

Pax: If that is your choice.

Bryon: Love you.

Pax: Love you too.

I lay down as Bryon rested beside me as we both had a peaceful night together.

Bryon: Good night love.

Pax: Good night.

I turned off the lantern after Bryon fall asleep, adjusted the blanket for two of us before I fall asleep.
