The Walke Take
Abdul points to the walke take sticking out of john's pocket. He wants him to tell the others that they need to come down. John does not like where this is going at all, but he gives a small nod. Abduol gestures toward their base camp in pantomimes eating food. A chill passes over john's body. Goose bumps raise on his arms. His mouth feels dry. Abdul stares at him blankly. Either he doesn't understand or he doesn't care. Maybe all they want is a meal. But as he watches his friends begin to climb down, john's stomach ties itself in knots. It will be too difficult for them to coming down.
