Benlo glanced at his wrist watch inside the room as his parents stared at him. The time wasn't favourable anymore, so he dropped the cutlass and collapsed on the bed. Seeing that, the parents gradually went out of the room silently.

On the other hand, at Ena's residence, Ena walked to and fro in her living room with a glass of alcoholic drink in her hand wearing a jean trouser and a white handless top. Her breasts weren't voluminous neither was her butt but had an amazing and attractive beauty. On her feet were heel shoes that echoed as she walked in thought. "Two different people showing me the same image of the blue river telling me they have a strong connection with it" she drank a quantity of the drink and twisted her face. "That river is mysterious. I pray nothing happens to me" she concluded in thought.

THE NEXT DAY
As Lora prepared to go to Ututu town, so as Sarah was preparing to visit the forest of Ezai secretly.
Lora carried her story about the blue river in mind, that was actually why she was going to Ututu to tell Benlo about it but at getting there and calling him on the phone through a call centre, Jasper picked the call.
"Hello, Benlo, it's Lora"
"Lora? It's Jasper. Where are you?"
"Where is Benlo?"
"It's a long story, just tell me your location"
Lora did as he said. Within some minutes, both met at a lonely place. Lora looked at him. "Where is Benlo?"
"He left his phone with me and went to a forest"
"Why? What forest?"
Jasper looked at her as if to trust her. "Benlo had been having strange feelings about a blue river. Knowing the location it is in the forest of Ezai, he went there"
"Blue river" Lora repeated thoughtfully but suddenly looked at Jasper. "Something is wrong somewhere. That's what i came to tell him coz my younger sister is having the same feelings about a blue river"
"You mean your sister is also.." Jasper paused. "This is strange"
Both remained quiet thinking critically until Lora hurried out.
"I'll give you a call"
"Where are you going to?!" Jasper asked but she didn't reply as she entered into the next available bus heading straight home. When she got home, her sister was nowhere to be found too. She went to her grandfather's room to see him lying face up on the bed with hands on his chest and eyes closed. "Grandpa?" she slowly moved closer. "Grandpa!"
Eric opened his eyes. "Lora, you came back so soon"
"Where is Sarah?"
"She has gone out"
"To where?"
"To satisfy her curiosity"
"I don't understand"
"She has gone to the forest of Ezai where she believed the blue river is"
Hearing that, Lora stepped out thoughtfully. "No, it can't be" she began to run to the main town where she called Jasper for them to meet again.
They finally met at Ututu. Jasper could see her face lookin worried.
"What's the problem, Lora?"
"Something is wrong somewhere?"
"What?"
"I went home only to hear that my sister has gone to the same forest too"
"What?" Jasper became surprise. "How? I mean why? Did they plan it? I mean do they know each other?"
"I don't know! You have to take me to that forest too"
"Really?"
"Yes!"
Jasper reasoned her request. "Okay, I'll like to follow you too"
They got prepared and began the unexpected journey to the forest of Ezai.
:
Seconds turned to minutes and minutes to hours, thus, bringing the day to an end, yet, Sarah had not gotten to the blue river neither had Benlo found his destination. Also, Jasper and Lora hadn't seen them or the river but all were inside the forest. Jasper looked up to see a mountain before them then directed his eyes to Lora. "This journey has become adventurous. Thank God you're putting on a trouser"
"What do you mean by that?" Lora frowned.
"We gonna climb this mountain. We might see Benlo or your sister through there, or even the blue river"
"I have a feeling that we gonna spend the night here"
"I have a feeling that your sister and Benlo have something in common"
Hearing that, Lora disdained him coz she was already getting jealous. She began to climb the mountain followed by Jasper. As he claimed, Benlo's phone fell from his pocket to the base of the mountain and scattered.
"Oh, my God!"
"What!" Lora asked from above.
"Our only source of communication is died and gone!"
"How can you be so careless! Gush!"
They finally made it to the top of the mountain. They saw nothing but forest at every angle. There were no buildings, river, animals, or even a human being. Therefore Jasper looked at Lora. "I'm beginning to buy your idea now. I guess we gonna spend the night here" he looked around again. "Oh God, am i watching a movie or am in a movie?" he asked panting dramatically.
"Sarah!!" Lora shouted supporting her mouth with her palms to enable her voice go far. In return, she heard nothing but the echo of her own voice, so she sat down hopelessly. Seeing that, Jasper sat beside her too then both looked at each other
