75 Hidden Housing (1/2)

Rose seemed incredibly weary about each step she took as every once in a while she would turn back to look for anybody behind her.

Dean knew that she would become more suspicious if he made any sudden movements however he was immediately thrown off by a stick.

*SNAP*

Having the desire to curse, Dean hid behind a nearby tree while Rose swiftly turned her back to survey her area.

Seeing a bird fly away into the sky with a worm in its mouth, she sighed at how stressed she was but continued to walk.

Rose's first location was an alchemy store that sold a wide range of herbs. Most of them were meant to be used for giving high amounts of nutrition to cultivators.

Dean followed the locations but what Rose bought was unknown since she hid them in her Space Ring.

Looking at the locations Rose tended to go to, they mostly involved consumables such as herbs, vegetables, meat and water.

He had no idea what she was planning but still followed her.

As if Rose knew that, her paced quickened.

The realization that he was discovered caused Dean to be anxious however he immediately picked himself and hid in the crowd.

Hiding became much more difficult as Rose took paths that were narrow and sharp turns that threw Dean off.

Grinding his teeth at the new found difficulty, Dean gave up following Rose in the normal manner and instead climbed atop a building.

Jumping from a building to another, he managed to get a bird's eye view of each district Rose would go through but he realized that there was a pattern.

Rose would always look back yet run the same path within the same area for around 3 times before switching it to a different route and repeating for 2 times.

Dean was close to getting tired as he realized Rose could easily be lost if he started to get cocky in predicting her path but eventually it seemed Rose gave in.

She looked slightly out of breath but she was slowly approaching to a house that seemed close to being run down.

Trying to take a better look, Dean peered through the window to find that the interior was surprisingly clean with fair looking furniture.

It was not to the point of luxury however what would seem comfortable for most people.

In a distant room he could barely see the face of Christian who seemed sick as his face was abnormally pale and each breathe seemed fragile.

Understanding that all the purchasing Rose has done was just for Christian allowed Dean to take a deep breathe of relief that would allow him to confront her.

Jumping down from the building and stopping just before Rose, Dean stood up against the dust that flew around him.

Rose was surprised at the sudden event but noticing that it was Dean, her eyes widened and prepared to scream but Dean stopped that.

He suddenly bowed

”I'm sorry.”

The sudden apology threw her off as Dean's face was covered with a streaks of tears.
