Fifty-Three
Control how you respond over things you have no control over.
✾
The first thing I notice back at the Torrids is that it has gotten hotter.
It was already hot before we left, but now that we’re back it had gone hotter. I didn’t realize just how cool it was then already, that there will be a time where it will be hotter. There was already a pool of sweat forming in the middle of my back and Yohan who was silent the whole way back didn’t look any better. Wiping the sweat off my forehead, I groaned loudly.

A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves.✾ I enter Judith’s hut first while Yohan calms himself down outside. His anger was valid, but it was just uncalled for. From how I met Judith as well as how I saw how she took care of Kofi, I knew she didn’t want this to happen. It would be unfair to blame her for something she couldn’t control. As well as with the resources available, there might be reasons as to why Kofi got sick. I slowly made explained this to Yohan since his mind wasn’t in the best of place when i

The art of medicine consists of amusing the patient while nature cures the disease.✾ I follow Yohan as he makes his way outside the room. He was picking up his rucksack from the floor and leaving some things behind in Judith’s table. The old woman was still snoring soundly on her own sofa. She must have been very tired. Yohan pulls tons of souvenirs and food items from his rucksack. I didn’t even realize he had a small shopping trip in Laguna. There were some scarves, caps, and even a small bottle opener. Not that it would be put

Even though your time on the job is temporary, if you do a good enough job, your work there will last forever.✾ I blink in surprise. “Kofi?” I couldn’t even believe my own voice. He was sick, how would he be able to travel with us? I voice out just that. “He’s sick, he can’t travel with us. He can’t even sit up all on his own when he’s in bed.” &

Trust a few, do wrong to none.✾ Judith smiles at me fondly, her eyes going to the direction of where I just came from. “I see you’ve met Martha,” Her voice sounded weak and croaky. When I look at her eyes, I see that it was a bit red. She was sniffing too, I guess her talk with Yohan made her more emotional than I anticipated. At least they were alright now, it would be a bad thing if we left and they still hadn’t made up. The old woman would be anxious, and she might not get the rest she needed. We can’t have mor

The natural state of motherhood is unselfishness.✾ “Have you told Kofi about what would happen already?” Yohan stares at both Judith and I as we entered back inside the house. Gale was adamant that he wanted to stay outside and enjoy whatever breeze he was talking about. Not that there was any, it was hot as hell outside even though it’s close to night already. I would never understand how some people still chose to stay here even though there’s nothing here to offer them. Guess it has something to do with risks and unc
Rules and Roses Fifty-Nine
Family is the only thing that the free man makes for himself and by himself.✾ “One of these days, you understand you would have to shift, right?” Tilting my head up, I’m greeted by the hut’s ceiling. It was brown and dingy. Cobwebs aplenty were formed at the corners. Interestingly enough, I’ve found it more entertaining to watch how a small spider was wrapping a bug, squinting my eyes I notice that it was a moth, in a crystallized white web cone. It probably got stuck there or something. Someone cleared his throat

If I know what love is, it's because of you.✾ Kofi wakes up a few minutes after dawn. We opted that he stayed at Judith and Gale’s house for the night. Since we did stay up late almost quarter of the night preparing things that we might need. Some time last night too, Yohan went out to hunt for some meat that the old couple could have. While waiting for the crop I gave Martha to grow. I also reminded them to give some to Martha, and if there were tons of extras, give some to the other villagers.
Rules and Roses Sixty-One
Explore a gainful uncertainty than to sit in a painful certainty.✾ I place Kofi in between my legs and made him hold tightly on the scarf I placed on Yohan’s wolf form. He didn’t agree with the idea before since it made him look like a pet more than a werewolf. That and Judith and Gale didn’t really know we would be travelling via wolf. It’s a good thing that Kofi still didn’t understand some of the rules and regulations of the world that’s why he didn’t so much as blink an eye when Yohan shifted. Kofi said he was used to him shifting, and it came a surprise to me because the older man was teaching the pup how to use his wolf.
