Mass Release For Wednesday!
***
As the group filed into the truck, Dave made the decision to stay at the front with the driver. The others climbed into the back, their weary bodies grateful for the small comfort the vehicle provided.
To his surprise, Silas, the man who had vehemently opposed his plan earlier, climbed into the front seat beside him. Dave raised an eyebrow at him, uncertain of what to make of this sudden change of heart. The man had made it clear that he wasn't willing to follow them before, so to see him now, silently settling into the truck, was unexpected.
Dave could only assume that, after thinking it over, Silas had realized there was no other choice but to go along. There was no sense in staying behind, no sense in trying to survive on their own in the midst of this chaos.
