Chapter 3

Wet Run

Nancy and Raymond walks into a cafe and sits down for a quick morning breakfast before they get to work. The food arrives and the both of them start clawing it into their mouths. "Hey are you going to cheer Charmaine on tomorrow?" Nancy asks suddenly. Raymond looks at his girlfriend wondering what is there to support.

"That silly girl signed up for a fun run but she doesn't even know what it is exactly! She says its fun and a good deed, I don't know. So here we are, tomorrow at 2:00 pm coming or not?" Nancy explains while she resumed eating. Raymond nods, "of course! I will take any chance there is to be with you. This is a great chance indeed!"

As she ate slowly and peacefully, Raymond suddenly shoots up from his seat and starts rummaging through his pockets for some money. "What? What are you doing Ray, sit down." Nancy commands as she smiles awkwardly at the other people in the cafe. "Take a look at the time! We're late!" He yelled.

"What?! Late?! Impossible!" Yells Nancy as she looks at her watch. After doing so, she jumps up as well and looks for some money to pay so they can leave. Finally she finds just enough money to pay and places it on the table. Raymond then grabs Nancy's hand and rushes out of there.

-

When they arrived at the office, Raymond follows Nancy into her room. When she turns around she looks at him with a very bossy face, "why are you in here? Get out and work!" Raymond walks over by her side and tugs her sleeve, "I don't want too! I'll miss you! Who knows when you will come out of your room! Somedays you don't even come out!"

Nancy smiles sweetly as she tries to hide it but Raymond caught her and appears a mischievous smile on his own face, "looks like someone would miss me too! I wonder who?" Nancy wipes the smile off her face and stands firmly, "come on now! Get out and work, before we both get in trouble," Nancy commanded. Raymond obeys just to please her so he can see her smile more.

-

Thought to be a good sunny day, was actually all grey and dull. The skys were a real mood killer causing Charmaine the feeling to leave the run. "No Charmaine, you can't leave, you said you want to do this, and you will." Niki said sternly not being soft on her. Charmaine pouts, "please! Go home! Go home!" She whines.

Her pout soon disappears when she sees Raymond come walking towards them. "Raymond Gor Gor! Why you here?" Charmaine yells joyfully as she wraps her arms around his tightly. "I'm here to support you of course!" He said giving her a pat on the head. "OK! Raymond Gor Gor is here to support Charmaine! I will run and run!"

Nancy and Niki looks on with disbelief as Charmaine got ready for the run which starts in 10 minutes. They looked at Raymond, "how did you do that? She whines a whole lot to us, but she doesn't whine a bit when she sees you. This isn't fair that we have to go through this and you don't." Niki said pouting herself now.

"Hi Niki," said a familiar voice, which casues her to blush. She turns around and see Kevin walking up to her. "Hi Kevin," she said in a soft shy voice, "what are you doing here?" Kevin looks at her with a crimson face himself, "I'm here with Ray, said it would be fun!"

"Well I better get ready myself! Don't want to be late," Raymond said as they look at him wondering what is there to get ready for. "I'm entering the run, so I can keep an eye out for Charmaine. I know how you are feeling Nancy, worrying about her. So I've registered to keep a watch on her! Don't you worry, ok?"

Nancy nods with a smile of relief. Raymond kisses her cheek and left to get ready. "Sis, you are way too lucky to get a boyfriend like Ray..." Said an envious Niki. "Come on, we can wait at the finishing point." Said Kevin as he starts off for his car.

Raymond looks around for Charmaine in the large crowd of people. He finally sees her as she is the only one in the whole group looking around nervously. He taps her shoulder and she yells from fright. "Shhhh! Its me! Raymond Gor Gor," he said trying to calm her down. A smile then appears on her face as she gives him a big hug, "Raymond Gor Gor, what are you doing here?"

He gives her a pat on the back, "I'm here to keep Charmaine company, would you like that?" She nods her head happily and turns back to face the front.

-

Nancy looks up time after time at the sky with a worried face, "it looks like its going to rain soon, and hard!" Niki looks at her, "stop worrying, if its going to rain, its going to rain. Stop killing yourself over it sis." Nancy starts pacing around back and forth, "they are going to reach the mountain soon! And that place has a really steep forest! I'm scared they might get lost."

Niki shakes her head at her sister's over worrying. She decides to ignore her until something that comes up is an actual worry.

-

While running through the middle of the forest, the sky starts to rain. It isn't soft drizzles that people can just walk in, it is hard unforgiving rain. Raymond wanted to tell Charmaine to hurry it up but she slipped on the now wet and muddy ground. She grabs whatever she sees near her at the time and dragged it down along with her. Unluckily for Raymond, he is that 'it'.

Both Charmaine and Raymond were rolling down the steep hill. Raymond feared that Charmaine might hurt herself so he felt the need to protect her by grabbing hold of her and presses her tightly in his embrace until they come to a stop.

They came to a stop but unfortunately it is because Charmaine hit her leg against a thick tree with force. She grabs onto her leg with pain as tears come spewing out from her eyes, "I want to go home! Home Charmaine want to go home!"

Raymond jumps over to her side and takes a look at her leg. Though he didn't know what he is doing, he thought it was be a good thing to take a look at how serious the injury might be. "Looks bad...real bad. Do you think you can walk Charm?"

She shakes her head and continues to cry. The rain is coming down hard and there wasn't anyway Raymond can get himself and Charmaine back up the hill. Especially when its all muddy and wet. He takes her up on his shoulders and moves forward. Now that Charmaine is up on his shoulders she couldn't grab hold of her leg, so she grabs his shoulder and grips it tightly.

Raymond almost dropped her because her nails were digging into his skin, "Please! Easy up on my body. You'll rip my skin right off."

As the rain comes running down on top of them, they found a small broken down house. An exhausted Raymond smiles with relief as he can get out of the rain and rest. "Come on Charm, we've got a place to stay until help comes."

When they entered, the whole place is pitch black and they couldn't see clearly. The darkness scared Charmaine and when Raymond tries to put her down, she grabs on to his back tightly. "Let go Charm, you'll be fine, your safe. I need to find something in here to start a fire."

Charmaine wouldn't let go or even loosen her grip. Raymond sighed. He knew he wouldn't be able to get her off of him unless he get can brighten the room up. So he carried Charmaine around on his back while looking for dry wood to start a fire.

17 minutes seemed like hours as Raymond gathered the wood. But finally he gets a fire started which eased Charmaine up enough for her to let go. "My god thats a load off my back." Raymond said stretching on the ground. "You feeling alright? We were out side for a while."

Charmaine nods, "fine. Just cold..." Raymond nods his head understandingly. He tries getting the fire to be bigger to help warm her faster but she is complaining that she was cold. Giving up Raymond sits beside her and hold her tightly in his embrace. Rubbing her arms with his hand trying to warm her up, "feeling better?" He asked.

She nods happily, "yup. Thank you Raymond Gor Gor." He smiles brightly as he still holds Charmaine in his embrace.

-

Waiting under a tent that is set up for the runners and spectators, Nancy and Niki paces back and forth in a crowd waiting for Kevin to return. "So have they returned yet?" Asked Nancy in a panic, not even giving Kevin a chance to speak.

He shakes his head, "no they haven't. It seems that everyone have returned except Charmaine and Ray," he explained. "This is bad, what if they got lost? What if they're hurt?! Or worse! What if they're..." Niki got cut off before she can finish. "Calm yourself down! Nothing will happen to them! Once the weather clears up a little, we can start a search party and look for them!"

Niki nods in frustration, "ok ok, calm down...calm down! Damn it I can't calm down, my sister is out in that damn forest!" She is about to run out but Kevin stops her, "wait Niki wait! If you go out like this you might get lost yourself! Just be patient! Please...I'm sure she is alright. I trust Ray will take good care of her!"
