Volume 6.3 Following the Dog

The three threaded behind the dog. Hyun Jae was in the front while Malaya and Oliver were following behind her. They were walking deeper and deeper through the woods. While the dog was stopping from time to time to check if they were still following him. As they keep walking there are some insects who crawled to them.

'It's itchy,' Malaya thought as she scratched her toes, which some insects attach to it. 

Malaya noticed Hyun Jae's crestfallen expression as she walked.

"Are you okay, Hyun Jae?" 

"I'm alright." Hyun Jae just smiled as a response to her then walked ahead. Since Malaya couldn't get nearer to the dog, she walked slowly behind again with Oliver and sighed inwardly.

"Hey, how do you get here?" Malaya whispered, "I mean how did you get to the ship without anyone noticing?"
