The Knock (Part 26)

I guess the little boy and I fell asleep because when we started to open our eyes the sun was shining in our eyeballs.I looked around to make sure that my friend had finally arrived after last night because it was morning time now.Though I looked and looked around the camp I didn't see a sign of my friend anywhere besides the canteens the little boy and I saw last night when we got back to the camp.I was very depressed because if she had gotten kidnapped we would probably never would see her again.When the little boy woke up he had also looked around to make sure that she had gotten back.I shook my head no when he gave me a questioning look.He must have realized that I looked very sad because he raised his spirits up and said that she probably just couldn't make it back here in time and decided that she would just sleep there.I nodded my head but my spirits hadn't risen that much.The little boy said that first we would eat and then go pick some more apples and then after we eat lunch we would go and set off to find her but we would bring all of our camping supplies.So after lunch and while we were looking for her I suddenly saw her.She must have still been sleeping I thought because her head was turned to her side.When the little boy and I ran up to her and start to shake her awake I looked at her face and realized that she wasn't breathing.Then I looked towards her hands to see if I could get a pulse but while I was reaching for her pulse I saw a knife right through her heart.
