38 Caught off guard

The sun shone through the barricaded windows when he awoke and he was down in the dumps. He lost all hope. Why did he only look in front of him? He should have looked back before he took the code from his pocket and tried to throw it amongst the bushes. He was overcautious and afraid if he looked back it would make them suspicious, but then the guy stalked him and caught him out. It sunk all his plans and he is now without hope. They have moved immediately to the new place where he is kept in a similar room. He is only thankful that they allow him to phone Martie daily and that his friends still join him during meals. They treated Martie smartly because she sounds very happy. He asked her where the place is where she now lives, but she doesn’t know. They haven’t flown and it didn’t take long to get there so it must be somewhere in the vicinity; at least still in South Africa.
