Chapter 26: 26

My team members will ride a van that Mikael provides but as for Russel and I, we will bring our own car.
We decided to do it that way and just convoy. Russel will be the lead, followed by the van then me, just to ensure that no one will be left behind.
"Is everyone already here?" I asked. They were already inside the van and having some fun chitchatting.
It's 3:45 in the morning and our running time is 4am. We had to get to the meeting place before 9am.

I nodded and said we were going to leave.
I went to my car and roared its engine. I blow my horn signaling them to move.
The whole trip was smooth, there was only one stop at NLEX to get some gas and go through the drive thru.
It was past 7am when we reached Mariveles, Bataan. We stopped over first to my parents’ house to change our clothes and have our breakfast.
Everyone is in my house aside from Russel, it also went home to his parents’ house. Also, he can’t step a foot in our house, my mom is still mad at him.
