"I had no other option than to follow him. You were unconscious and I couldn't do anything. I didn't even got a chance to look back."
Tears were rolling down her cheeks. Merry's heart was heavy with guilt. As time passed, the realization was becoming bigger that she had sent her two best friends to danger by suggesting them to go back and get Cole.
Also, she couldn't help but think that she should have waited for her friends to come back even though Mr. Rogers was forcing them to leave.
At that time, she only had the thought that she somehow needed to help Cole at any cost, but now, she realized that her impulsiveness may have caused more harm than good.
Merry couldn't bear the thought of losing her two best friends, and now the guilt was eating her alive even though they had gone back to the building to help Cole.
