" Its a nice 'camiso'. Mayumi thought while sitting on the edge of the bed. She then settled comfortably and recall what Baldur had been telling her and sighed.

Back to the granite house, George and Magee had a fine time facing at each other at the kitchen table. But in between them was a bamboo vase containing five leafy b.l.o.o.d.y pothos in it. With a lovely smile she slowly forwarded her index and thumb fingers touching to one of the leaves and spoke.

" Wow...I've been staring to this beautiful flower the whole day, its so inspiring. George, its one in a million variety I guess, can't imagine the beautiful red leaves with a variegated stalk. How come that we, the locals here haven't noticed this flower around." Her soft smiles stuck him for a while and replied while putting his hands under his chin.

" Sometimes, when there are trials and circ.u.mstances in our life, we appreciate some little things like this. If not without this war, who would have ever thought this tiny beautiful creation can be found just out there in the wilderness by a soldier who's madly in love. I don't know, but when a person truly loved, the more mankind appears like a perfect paradise. Its who I am and its how tender my love goes, same with this plant as it took me by surprise, its color was alluring and soothing, so natural but majestic. It fits to a woman who loves and sees me the way I am. Its for you, Mag. I'm very happy that you like it."

" Oh dear. Lovely. I got sober over those sugar-coated words, though, why were you late in coming up, hmm, I've been waiting, the food's getting colder too. I just covered it." She said.

" Ah, yes, its it, we still properly relocated that lady we rescued at the northeast border as she was finely lodged in the second floor of the wooden house. The Captain made sure that everything's alright, Dad's an expert when it comes to that and he a.s.signed Baldur to guard the lady's room. He wanted to make sure that the occupant is mentally sound by checking Baldur's report daily. Hmm, he said he doesn't like that we might experience guest doing some ma.s.sive killing. So he posted Baldur for the task."

" I see. Have you seen the lady?"

" Yes, I first saw her at the site, she's at your age but not as beautiful as you neither ugly. She's just a lady Baldur likes so much. Although, he told us that the lady got irritated of her because he kept mentioning to her that "I am married" and what's funny is that , the lady didn't ask him about it so it annoys her and told her, " you may go out, now" when he did, he immediately proceeded to me and Dad. We were speechless and Dad just tapped Baldur's shoulder and said, " Oh boy, you need to relax now, you're so tired, just go up and take a nap by her door outside." George suddenly covered his face and forcibly laughed.

" Oh my...did he do that to a lady? Why, its really embarra.s.sing. I never expected that Baldur could do that...great heavens. I'll go comfort that lady and of course, sit by my brother's side for a while."

" No, no ..you're pregnant. Its not good for you to be emotional. Can't allow you."

" Just once, George, please...just once, give me a little time for my brother. Remember we have read his secrets, he'd been into a lot of sacrifices and..."

" No. I cannot put you to risk, not anymore. We still do not know that lady. I can do it in behalf of you, why not. I got your point, its my responsibility Mag, just stay here and I'll get back to Baldur in a while."

" Huh!" Then she pouted, sighed and silently walked inside the granite secret rooms. He followed and found her lying on bed and covered her face with a blanket.

" Haha! h.e.l.lo! hmm... just let me visit our brother, okay. Our baby's sleepy now. If you go down I guess you need to know this but there are portions, after the bricks that are indeed slippery and becoming b.u.mpy. I don't like you to be tired, hmm...just stay here." Then he kissed her forehead, smiled and tickled here armpit.

" Haha! I know you're not going there for Baldur alone. You're becoming more curious to see that lady that I first saw in the site and probably you're jealous. Haha! that's the flow,l somehow so I better block your curiosity since you're the most beautiful woman in my eyes. Hmm...I knew you more than anyone else, Mag. Don't get jealous " He thought and then smiled as she laughed out loud after being tickled.

She removed the blanket on her face and spoke.

" Hey, haha! okay...alright, I'll stay." She smiled at him face to face as he seemingly hit by a stray bullet coupled with imaginary mortars and canons while looking at her eyes, too close. His heartbeats were totally complicated and his eyes were glued.

" Wow...you're extraordinarily beautiful my wife, can't fix my heartbeats right now, can't walk away and can't even breath." He whispered on her ear as the fireflies began to gather and lighted them both.

After an hour, they both unknowingly forgot Baldur and the rest in the world. All that matters were themselves, together and some distant bomb blasts they heard.

" How about Baldur..." She worryingly said while making his arms as her pillow.

" Baldur's doing fine right now. The joy of being threatened by a woman sometimes is the beginning of a great journey, I seemed can even recall mine. I've got a stab wound and series of threats, but still I got her, haha!"

" What did you say, ha? haha!" Then she funnily covered him with a pillow.

The night came and they rested and woke up; rested and woke up till the dawn opened the skies.
