Abyss Of Silent Heroes 119 A Flower On Her Palm

"Inhale slowly, exhale...look! the sky becomes more brighter - their spirits has risen now. The gunfires had stopped, the Gabok guerrillas are happy now." George said. She smiled at him as he wiped her tears.

" Open your palm." He whispered.

" Why?"

" Just open it, I'll give you something."

When she opened her palm, he put a white daisy flower on it, closed it and he sealed it with a kiss.

" Shh...they're pa.s.sing by. The j.a.ps are chanting again and George could feel how victorious they were. He then covered her mouth with his hand as she was very still through his warm palm.

Moments later, there was silence. The fogs gathered like cotton candies on mountain tops as they were chilling. George removed his hand from covering her mouth then they glided in the hole straight to the barracks. It's already midnight when they reached inside their bedroom - in room # 3. The fireflies were there and the cozy flowing water added more attraction to the room.

" Is it alright for you if I visit our family for a while and get some updates. I'm sure Dad's thinking of some plans after the entrance gate was tightly locked. Moreover, the attack tonight presses us in a hard way. So, I can only take my exit if you're asleep, not yet now." He smiled.

" You may - it's your job, besides, I'm already sleepy."

" Good. I'll wait till you forget the monotonous sound you've heard tonight from afar. Just listen to the flowing water around." He was watching her closes her eyes, smiling."

" I submit my self for hypnotism, if it makes me better, hmm." She smiled while lighted by the candle beside their bed.

" That's it, Mag, everything's alright." Then she put a blanket on her and kissed her forehead before he left, heading to the wooden house. At 0100 hrs he reached chillingly and saw his father-in-law with the brothers and Sr. Sibal.

" Here's George." Albrecht announced.

" Come on, son. We're thinking of the next 'what ifs, if someone from the j.a.ps will get the same experience, murdered by a woman at that, they'll eventually turn to another direction because Gabok troop fell into their hands already. So, just tightly guard Magee, I tell you." The Captain smiled.

" That's true, she could transform that granite door into a rubber mat, hah! that woman." Sr. Sibal smiled.

" She had no option that's why she protected her self that way, it resorted to stabbing that soldier. It's also my fault because I left her." George sighed.

" Oh dear! somewhat I've heard that line two-three months ago, it's coming back." Albrecht blankly stated.

"Hey! he's the husband, what do you expect him to say. That's love." Baldur seconded.

" Huh! you two, keep quiet. This is a serious matter that we have to attend to. Hmm, unless if she'd be pregnant, she can't escape just to hunt some j.a.ps."

" Indeed, I'm also excited to make toys for a baby. I'm reminded of someone in the past who knocked my head with his toys. So I want her to be pregnant as soon as possible, it's pretty mandatory and with that she can't lobby around." Sr. Sibal jokily said

" Wow! I'm interestingly fried on a pan. You guys teamed up and tickled me this early, I guess I need to get back up there and sleep." The George smiled. He ran quickly and the men behind were laughing.

" Hmm, there he goes. So, Baldur what have you suggested beforehand?"

" Ah, I said maybe we need to be updated with the activities and plans of another Guerrillas in the neighboring places. Dad, I need to bring men along with me to manuever the j.a.ps' den too, we'll do it for a week. Indeed, what had happened tonight sounds alarming, they seemed starting to sweep us around, who knows they already have plans against us,we must be very careful."

" Baldur, shh, it's risky." Albrecht intervened.

" we'll manuever every night time alone.

" But still, you can't be sure where you're heading yet. Stay! we can directly fight with the j.a.ps on our own, it's proven already." Albrecht's voice raised a little.

" Hmm...I still think of that Baldur, just let me sleep first after being onslaught with lethal sound of weapons. Let's get rested and better talk about it again tomorrow, okay?" The Captain ordered.

Both Sibal and the Captain smiled before they entered the bedroom.

" The eldest is correct. The younger one was just convinced by Amado, I've heard them chatting while we were hiding, watching the j.a.ps from the mountain top. It's Amado who kept convincing him. What do you think?" Edward asked.

" Probably. Okay, I'll go retire on bed now. Good night. Just twist your mind tomorrow again, buddy." Sr. Sibal smiled.
