After a brief discussion, they decided it was time to retreat.
The journey back took three times longer than the trip there, but luckily nothing unexpected happened.
The five of them finished their "short trek", got into the car, and after letting out a pleasant sigh, they all continued fiddling with their phones, letting their families know they were on their way back to assure them, and responding to group chats or private messages of well-wishes.
Why do people always send those mass messages like "Happy New Year, want a little red envelope"? What internet beggars.
A little red envelope, huh? Wanna get your head full of bumps instead?
It was actually an old elementary school classmate of mine, which I barely remember, might as well delete them.
After all, even if there were some elementary school reunion, I wouldn't attend, no need to maintain this facade of dignity.
