Wallowing on the beach

Tom fell to his knees on the beach as Blake and the other slipped past the brush.

Nigel and David wanted to help the guy, but in the end they knew there was nothing really you could say to a man in the situation Tom was in that could make it better.

So Tom wallowed wordlessly… hours past and soon the sun was getting low. Tom realized he needed to head back to camp… but something struck him.

Tom: Maybe she only did that because we lost?

He said to himself, but there was only one way to be sure and soon his feet were taking him toward the Bull Camp.
