Chapter 220

It was just past 8 a.m., and Yvonne was crouched on a small path in the front yard, her tiny backpack snug on her back.

Ian had forgotten something and gone back to get it. She was waiting for him.

While she waited, Yvonne noticed a long line of ants marching across the ground. Curious, she squatted down to watch them in silence.

A large leaf had fallen across their path. Every ant, upon reaching the leaf, had to climb up and over it before continuing on.

Feeling helpful, Yvonne reached out and gently moved the leaf aside.

She had only meant to make things easier for the ants. But to her horror, the moment the leaf was gone, the line fell into chaos.

The ants behind suddenly stopped, spinning in confused circles as if they’d lost all sense of direction. The front half kept going, unaware that their orderly formation had been severed.

Yvonne stared at the scene in shock, eyes wide with guilt.

Oh no. She’d messed up.

Panicking, she hurried to put the leaf back where it had been–but somehow, that only made things worse. Now even more ants were lost, clustering together in frantic confusion.

Desperate, Yvonne began using her finger to guide them, her soft, childish voice rising with urgency.

“Go this way! Right here–this is the way, little ones!”

But the ants didn’t understand her. They’d already started spreading out in both directions, searching for a new path.

Yvonne wanted to cry. She crouched there on the ground, heartbroken, feeling like a criminal.
