After all this time, Atticus should've been long out of the loo.
What would he do if he came out and couldn't find anyone?
Thalassa didn't dare to think further. It scared her just thinking about it.
She rushed to the bathroom with the remaining three kids.
Upon reaching the bathroom, there was no one outside, and Atticus wasn't at the entrance of the men's room either.
Thalassa started to get nervous. She asked Dorian to check the men's room to see if Atticus was there.
Dorian obediently went into the men's room.
He knocked on each of the individual bathroom doors, calling out, “Atticus, it's Dorian, are you in there?”
He searched from the first stall to the last one, then from the last back to the first.
There was no trace of Atticus in any of them.
Dorian came out of the men's room and told Thalassa, “Mom, Atticus isn't in there.”
Thalassa, already on edge, became increasingly anxious. Her hands and feet started to shake uncontrollably, “Stay behind me. We'll check the ladies' room together.”
Atticus was missing. She didn't want to lose track of any other child. Boys weren't supposed to enter the ladies' room, but she couldn't care less now.
Upon reaching the ladies' room, Thalassa shouted loudly, “Atticus, are you in there? Atticus, it's Mom!”
A child opened the door and walked out.
Thalassa quickly looked. Thinking it was Atticus, her worries eased slightly.
