    Calvin spoke up immediately, “I’m going in with you.”

    Bruce surveyed the blocked entrance and figured it would take hours to clear.

    “Alright, just three of us going in.”

    Bruce wasn’t sure how many would make it out.

    Calvin clenched his fists, forcing himself to stay calm while dialing Ka’s number again. Only the busy tone answered him.

    “She’ll be fine. Ka’s going to be okay.”

    He wouldn’t let himself think otherwise.

    Bruce nced at the tall, determined Calvin, impressed by his

    nerve.

    “You’re brave.”

    Calvin met his eyes. “My wife’s in there. I have to save her.”

    The situation inside wasn’t as dire as they feared, but they had1

    to move fast. No one knew when the next avnche might hit.

    “Let’s go. Head for the safety cabin! That’s where the distress call came from. Most of them are there!”

    Calvin’s voice was urgent. “Is there a girl named Ka?”

    Bruce shook his head. “The phone line’s dead now. Don’t worry, your wife will be okay.”

    The snow fell heavily, making every step a struggle.

    Inside the cabin, the tourists‘ phones had lost signal. Outside, thick snow nketed everything, and they had no idea if another avnche wasing or when rescue would arrive.

    Spending the night in the cabin didn’t seem promising.

    It wasn’t exactly warm in there.

    Ka sat quietly in a corner. Despite the avnche, she didn’t regret this trip.

    She just felt she was still so young, with so much left to do. If she didn’t make it through today, she’d feel a pang of regret.

    Her heart ached at the thought of her family.

    Her parents would have to rely on her brother from now on.

    Her grandfather was getting old. She hoped he wouldn’t be too heartbroken if she didn’t make it back.

    The shop was on track, and she trusted Amy could handle it alone.

    And then there was Calvin.

    If Calvin heard she was gone, he could return home and follow through with his family’s arranged marriage without guilt.

    “Ka, are you scared?” Charlie sat beside her, shoulder to shoulder.

    She gave a wry smile. “I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t.”

    Charlie’s smile was faint. “Don’t be scared. You’ll be okay.”

    He checked his watch. Two hours had passed. “The rescue team should be here soon.”

    Ka looked at him, curious. “Charlie, aren’t you scared?”

    Was it because he was twenty–two, at that fearless age, that he seemed so calm?

    “I’m not scared. I’ve been scared for ten years already.”

    Ka didn’t understand, but before she could ask more, a knock came at the door.

    “Open the door! We’re the mountain rescue team!”

    The group leader flung the door open, overjoyed. “You’re finally here!”

    Calvin pushed through, his eyes locking onto the familiar figure in the corner.

    He rushed over. “Ka!”

    Before she could react, he pulled her into a tight embrace.

    “Ka, you scared me to death.”

    Calvin let go, his face full of worry as he checked her over. “Are you hurt anywhere?”

    Ka shook her head, still dazed. “No. Calvin, why are you here?”

    Calvin’s gaze was intense. “I came for you. I got here and heard there was an avnche.”

    He gripped her hand tightly, his eyes bloodshot. “When we head out, stay close to me, okay?” 477

    After that, Ka was so taken aback by Calvin that Charlie never crossed her mind during the trip.

    It wasn’t until they’d made it halfway to the exit that someone noticed. “Where’s Charlie?”

    Ka’s heart skipped a beat. She spun around, but Charlie’s smiling face was nowhere in the crowd.

    “I saw him earlier,” someone said. “He wanted to take pictures of the scenery over there. I thought he was with us.”

    “What do we do now? Should we go back for him?b” /b

    There were still a dozen people in the group, and no one knew when the next avnche might hit.

    Some didn’t want to turn back.

    “Let’s get out first. Saving ourselveses first. It’s his fault for falling behind!”

    Bruce paused to think. “You all go ahead. I’ll check back. The snow’s lighter now. If you reach the exit and we’re not there, send help for us.”

    No one wanted to abandon a survivor.

    “Bruce, be careful!”

    Calvin held Ka’s hand tightly. “You know that guy?”

    He remembered seeing a boy sitting next to her in the cabin.

    “Yeah, he was really kind to me on the trip.

    “I hope he’s okay.”

    Calvin pulled her close. “He’ll be fine.”

    An hourter, the group emerged from the mountain. The snow-blocked exit had been cleared.

    Ka quickly spoke up, “There might be more people inside. Bruce went back for a young guy from our group. And there’s a couple still out there.”

    Calvin noticed her anxious expression, his eyes dimming for a

    moment.

    “Come on, Ka. Let’s rest tonight and head back to the city

    tomorrow.”

    The snow was still falling, and the roads had been treacherous.

    Ka nodded; there really wasn’t any other choice.

    But when they tried to check in, the lodge owner looked a little

    troubled.
