"Tarzan is depending on us."
"We can't let him down."
Tantor and Terk nodded and hid behind the bushes. It wasn't a surprise for them when Tarzan asked them to host his and Brook's date. It has been a while since they had a date and they agreed.
Well, Tantor agreed. Terk just tagged along.
"Remember, timing is everything," Terk looked up at Tantor.
"Check," Tantor nodded. "I'm good to go."
"We move in three..."
"Bringing up–"
"Two..."
"–the main course!" Tantor pumped, carrying the food as Terk counted down. "Now!"
They ran out of the bushes to meet Brook and Tarzan. The couple, on the other hand, was having a nice picnic the sun's blush beamed on the jungle giving an orange glow.
"What a glorious sunset," Brook sighed as she leaned into her husband.
They were abruptly interrupted as Terk popped up, checking on them with a grin on her face. "How is everything, folks? Do you like the table? Best seats in the joint," Terk grinned as she flattened the blanket under the couple.
"Everything's perfect, Terk," Tarzan smiled.
"So?" Tantor came from behind. "How were the appetizers?"
Brook chuckled, "Mine ran off the plate too fast, but they looked absolutely scrumptious, thank you."
"Well. Get ready for the entree," Tantor lowered their food and removed the silver plate cover.
Brook was amused at what she saw. It was different from fruits. It was a raw fish with wooden ships around it. She grabbed a chip, hitting it against the plate.
"Fish and chips?" Brook glanced at Tarzan.
Tarzan grinned, "Surprise!"
"And! Some of our finest coconut milk. Compliments on the house," Tantor pushed out the rubber stoppers from his nose, releasing a foam of coconut milk.
Terk raised their coconut cups while Tantor poured the milk on them. Brook felt awkward as she held the drink while Tarzan drank from it. Seeing as Terk and Tantor were leaving and Tarzan was focused on the drink, Brook spilled it on the side of her and turned to her husband.
"This is all so wonderful," she smiled. "Us here together."
Tarzan smiled as he pulled her in a hug. "There's no place I'd rather be."
Brook smiled, pecking his cheek as she leaned her head on his shoulder and just admired their moment together.
