39 Thanksgiving Time

Its sundown when they reached Kabang and he informed the soldiers on duty that his wife is in his place. Magee have readied some books she brought, pillow, blanket, oil lamp and placed them on a mat. The daffodils from a small spring from the outside passes by inside then goes out its flow towards Malapague, inside Kabang. Its her only source of air and a water to drink is possible. She put some balabad and smiled.

" Its like in the waterfalls, its too cold and she'd pressed her own shoulders and closely placed the oil lamp beside her.

" Amazing! this place is totally locked but I could breath well. If I put something, it echoes right away. Everything inside here is a souvenir. Oh! what's this, wow! a snail, so I have a companion here. Hmm...how is that guy claiming I'm his wife, when he spoke it my goosebumps appear. But I liked him." She smiled while funnily talking to the snail.

" Oh, I feel homey in this place then she decided to sleep first before starting to read some books. When she was about to close her eyes, she felt the rocky door facing inside has slowly moved. Her heart beat grew faster, her pulses crumble and her blood started to rise. The strange person who slowly came in sat behind him and put something on the floor. It seems a porcelain plate and stainless spoon and it smelled like a viand. She flipped her body facing the intruder and found him smiling - its George.

" Hah! I was so scared. You should have made a noise to warn me."

" Don't worry, times like this, I readied myself to really protect my body from your stabs, haha."

" Its not funny, next time you should at least call me, ha."

" What are these..Ina! Wow...thank you, they're all delicious George." She smirked and tapped his shoulder.

"You eat now. I'll stay here for a while. You have no one to talk to."

She already started her first bite with the fried fish when she smiled and spoke.

" No, you're wrong. I have a cute companion around."

George's eyes were as big as a rugged stone and looked around angrily."

" Hey, what are you doin', you're scaring the snail."

George bent his body and bowed his head.

" Huh! I thought its one of my men around. I warned them not to get inside so hearing what you said made me angry. I know Baldur and Albrecht could not come since they're busy with the brief bible sharing. By the way, where is that snail, haha...let me bring that out."

" No. Leave it here, haha. You're jealous to a snail?"

" Absolutely!" Then he smiled while wiping his sweats on the face.

" You sweat a lot. Okay, you're time has come. You go back and join with them.

"I won't go out." He stood up and looked at the ceiling.

"Now...I need my dagger visible. Get out!" She smiled and pushed him outside. But he turned his head and told her he'll get back to bring her an army uniform that Baldur manually made for her.

"You have to wear it when you go to the ancestral house. You'll sleep there and I will return you back here tomorrow morning.

" By the way, we already started drinking 'tuba.' It's very sweet and I don't know if how Baldur processed it. Its one of a kind. Hmm... I just wonder why it hit me so badly, but I told Baldur to fetch you when I can't anymore do it, okay?"
