After saying goodbye to the village chief, Naomi Kenway held Ian Shaw's hand and followed Six to House #1.
Six walked with a slight limp, but she was fast. Even with such a large pack on her back, she still looked completely at ease.
Naomi watched from behind, a complicated feeling stirring in her heart.
'I came from a privileged background and never really knew hardship. This is the first time I've met such a strong and brave little girl. Six is like a wildflower pushing its way through a crack in a rock, full of untamable spirit and life.'
As if sensing something, Six looked back and smiled. "Come on, Fairy Sister. Am I walking too fast for you?"
"No." Naomi snapped out of her thoughts and quickened her pace.
As they passed Renee Jennings, they saw her face was a mask of fear and conflict. No matter how the production team tried to persuade her, she refused to leave the courtyard.
