Gorilla moves away
After what felt like an eternity, the gorilla finally moved away, allowing Elliot to relax slightly. He took a few cautious deep breaths, grateful for the temporary reprieve.

Still, he knew he couldn’t let his guard down. The danger was far from over. He needed to figure out his next move quickly, before the gorilla or its companions returned.
Staying hidden wouldn’t be enough to guarantee his safety.
