Abyss Of Silent Heroes - Chapter 102 Days Full Of Love
The third day graciously came and he woke up teasing her with a smile while standing by the door – leaning his back on the hardest granite wall.
” You’re…too…early. Its…to…today.” She smiled.
There, with full manifesto and devotion, she lighted the candle as he closed the second door and moved closer to her wife.
” I love you very much and thank you, dearly.” He whispered.
Indeed, up there on the granite surface were the birds chirping, with noise echoing and the windy morning caressed every sober creatures chanting on trees, winnowing the branches. On the ground below were the gathered withered leaves like a season of fall with a promising legacy on their branches to sprout again. The skies azure with cottony clouds dazzling their musing in the heights, moving slowly on spare direction where the winds want them to be; and it goes more beautiful when the sun shone on its utmost and provided its light even unto the deepest places of the groovy nooks of Kabang. With the sun’s bountiful charisma to provide warmth to all creatures during wartime, it never ceased to convey its energy – giving light that awakened – both soldiers and guerillas who fought to protect the land. The seas out there behind the walls of the mountains whose waves groans over the rocky shorelines immensely rises and beyond that leaves a repetitive memory to the dwellers. Unforgotten squeezes of such abundant haven when the great forgotten heroes rolled down and giveth their lives, no matter how painful the struggle is – the WWII was always their first unforgettable battlefield.
Amidst sunny high noon, Albrecht was folding his camiso and pants when Baldur called him.
“Albrecht! Albrecht! Come!” Baldur whispered while facing the map.
“Yeah! yeah” Albrecht quickly motioned towards him.
“Clang! Clang!”
” What’s….that?”
” The bell rang again. We both know that George and Magee were up there, so who was there inside in the smiling Buccaneer’s cave?” Baldur looked at him as they both grabbed their handguns and daggers. They passed through the hole beside the cabinet and used the shortcut alley underneath in order to emerge on the door inside the cave without passing its frontage. When they reached outside the door facing the granite house, Baldur forcibly opened it and found a skinny man on the floor.
” Albrecht! come!” Then he put his handgun beside him and Albrecht moved in after closing the door.
” Who’s that, why he knew that the bell is connected to the wooden house?”
” Anyone can do it. Remember me last time? I accidentally leaned something on the rope so it rang.” Baldur reasoned out.
” He’s so skinny, poor man!”
” Hey, I’ll turn his body so that we can see him. Hmm he also passed through this door facing the sea, interesting.” Baldur said.
When Baldur turned the unconscious man’s body, they were shocked to see his face.
“Dad?” Albrecht immediately picked and carried Edmund and rushed him into the wooden house while Baldur followed, praying and was teary eyed.
” Dad! Dad! hang on! hang on!” Albrecht kept whispering on him. The brickyard alley have bumpy portions but Albrecht trudged it like a plain path. They got out from the hole so instantly and immediately lay down their stepdad on bed while Baldur removed his rotten shoes.
” Dad! Dad! wake up! don’t sleep yet. Baldur, go ran and boil some water in a pot, quickly!” Still teary eyed and embraced his stepdad and put him on his chest. In a while he changed the captain’s rotten smelly shirt and wrapped him with a thicker towel.
“Baldur! Baldur! enough of that! bring that here and grab a small towel. A lukewarm will do and compress it on his hands then feet, quickly!”
” Dad! Dad…wake up! wake up!” Albrecht was very worried. When Baldur came in, he right away compressed the hands and feet of the captain while Albrecht ran upstairs to get his emergency kit and took out a thermometer to check his stepdad’s body heat.
” Baldur! its 39.” Albrecht then immediately put some meds on his tongue while he noticed that he slowly opened Edmund’s eyes.
“Don’t talk yet Dad. Baldur, I’ll make a porridge, sit beside him and keep putting that small towel on his forehead. Then he proceeded to the kitchen.
” Bal…dur…my son. ” The captain whispered.
Baldur was teary eyed again.
