I looked back at one last time, but she was nowhere to be seen.
"Is everyone out of the mine?" I asked the last boy who came and he nodded his head.
"Do you know the way to your home?" They nodded again and I looked back again.
"I am going in to check for one last time. If I do not come back or you will feel any danger, then you will help each other and run towards your home. If you go through that way it would only be an hour or two away.`` I pointed in the direction from where the woman had brought me to show these laborers.
They looked at me hesitatingly but nodded their heads later.
"Remember, that your parents are waiting for you there.'' I added, hoping that their will to save themselves from this destruction would increase. They only nodded and I sighed. How the incident had turned their eyes dim. They were no less than trained slaves, I had seen in the slave establishment.
