...The Final Part...

Dylan and Laila didn't talk that much during the day because Laila was doing her best to avoid him. She could feel everyone's gaze on her.

" I'm very embarrassed. How could, my first kiss, happen in front of everyone? something like that shouldn't happen again. "

Mei approached her while smiling.

- You must be happy that someone loves you, but is it okay for a human to fall in love with a monster? Can that be possible?

Laila couldn't say to her that she wants to be a monster, herself.

- We will try, maybe it will work.

When everyone slept, Dylan approached Laila from the back and hugged her which startled her:

- What are you doing?

- Let's sleep, I'm very tired.

Laila didn't argue any longer. She was quite happy that Dylan approached her, but then, she felt very sad when she felt his body's warmth.

" Is there a chance for me to love someone and to be loved? I haven't thought about that option. All I cared about is fulfilling my father's dream no matter what the consequences. I was ready to take it all. But now, why I'm hesitating? Why did that dream become a burden out of a sudden? I can't quit now, not in this advanced stage. if we find China's clue, we will be so close to the treasure.

Laila had mixed feelings about what was going on with her. She wished that Dylan will never let go of her, but that won't happen if she continued.

" I must take a decision soon, either give up on my dream or give up on Dylan. Because, if I become a monster I won't be able to leave that place forever. "

In the Morning, Laila made sure to not make the same mistake. She woke up the first one and removed away from Dylan. Suddenly she heard Sarra:

- You are giving him false hope. If you want to leave him you must get away from him, not sleep in his arm the whole night.

Laila looked so sad to the point that Sarra regretted saying those harsh words. It was obvious that Laila loved Dylan as well.

Sarra sighed, she got closer to her so no one can hear them, especially Mei.

- Do you know that Tarou hated witches so much?

Laila seemed very surprised when she heard that.

- How can that be possible? You are a witch!

- Yeah, he was my first crush and it was a one-sided love for so long.

- What did you do to make him love you?

- When I met him after so many years, I decided to not let him go again. It didn't matter to me what was he or the difference between the both of us. I tried my best to change his opinion about witches and I succeeded in that. He loved me back and we lived the happiest moments in our lives together. It was like a dream come true.

- Are you saying to me to not let Dylan go?

- If you find the right person and let him go, you will regret it for the rest of your life.

- What if that person gets hurt because of me?

- Dylan is not that weak. Besides, Aaron and Tarou will never let something bad happen to him.

Sarra held her hands to relieve her worries:

- You just have to open your heart to him without any fear.

Laila nodded her head:

- I...I will try.

At that moment Dylan woke up:

- What are you talking both of you?

Sarra smiled at him:

- Just girls talk. Come on, it is getting late, we must finish the rest of the wall today.

Mei and Annie woke up as well, they eat breakfast, then they completed their walk.

The final part of the wall was very damaged, so they couldn't find that many symbols.

- I think there are missing symbols in this area.

- Yeah, I think that too. Did you think that it will affect our search?

- Most likely.
