"Misty Mountain is really what people say it is. I have never seen such a thick mist before! Please stay in the group. Don't go missing." The leader of the group who was standing aside reminded everyone as he counted the number of people in the group.
"Captain James, you need to be careful too. Don't let the fairies in the mist drag you away." One of the tour pals jokingly said.
"If the fairy drags me away, I will stay here and be with all these pretty fairies. Then there will be a place for you all to stay whenever you guys are here," Captain James said.
"If there is really such a thing, I'd stay too." Burly joined the conversation because he didn't want to be left out. But as soon as he finished, Shane slapped him in the head. "If any fairy falls for you, she must be blind."
Everyone burst into laughter at Shane's reply.
Laughter penetrated the mist and echoed in this quiet and dusty valley. Everyone got more excited as they hiked.
On Misty Mountain, there was only one main road leading to the villa area. The other paths that were already explored by the other tour pals were all very narrow and difficult to hike on.
The main reason for them to hike up Misty Mountain was to see the misty scenery, they would occasionally stop during the hike to admire the view. Everyone had a great time during the hike.
Halfway through the hike, the girls couldn't take it anymore. The leader of the group decided that all of them could take a break and have some food before continuing the journey.
Everyone removed their backpacks. They were each responsible for different tasks. Some laid the mats on the ground while some took out the food from their backpacks.
The team captain said, "Since we're having a break, let's play a game together."
Someone immediately said, "Okay, let's do it."
Karen Joy didn't know what game they were going to play. While drinking some water, she looked at the captain. She was quite interested in the game that he introduced to the group.
The team leader added, "Let's play charades. Two in a group, and each group will go against another. Then the winner of each round will go against the other winner's until the final winner is determined."
As soon as the leader finished his words, everyone had already found their group.
Karen Joy and Yaya formed a group without any hesitation. Yaya patted Karen Joy on the shoulder and whispered in her ear, "Little Jar, I'm going to find a place to pee. Do you want to go with me?"
Before Karen Joy could speak, Shane whispered, "Little Jar is also a girl, she can't protect you! If you want her to accompany you, you might as well let me accompany you."
Yaya raised her foot and kicked at Shane. "Get away from me."
Shane felt very wronged. "You don't see me as a man, and I don't see you as a woman anyway. We're buddies! Why can't I go with you?"
Yaya gave Shane an impatient look, turned around, and walked to a relatively hidden bush to answer nature's calling.
As soon as Yaya left the group, one of the tour pals immediately sat by Karen Joy's side, taking over Yaya's seat. "Little Jar, my name is Zayne. I've introduced myself on the ride earlier today. You should still remember me right?"
She didn't remember!
She had no impression of him at all!
But Karen Joy couldn't say that. It was too offensive to say that.
She nodded and smiled politely. "Yes, I remember."
Upon hearing that Karen Joy remembered him, Zayne was very happy. He quickly reached out and wanted to shake Karen Joy's hand. "Then we will be friends from now on."
