beast and charming

Chapter 56 Am Homesick

Doliz-"Okay let's have a test of your capacity. make a bag out of any of these you see fit till tomorrow. If I am satisfied with the craftmanship the the deal is sealed."
Healer-"Sure" 
I left back to the cave where I was greeted with a warm bowl of Cooked rice and curry.
Ruble-"Here is everything to make a dish perfect." Curry is not something new, at least once a month It is used to be made at home if not twice. Typically I belong to a hindu family. Our ancester were indian shifted to london england 1950's and became a part of it. Our every summer vacation spent in india back at relatives of my great grandfather side in some way. even if we protest we are forced to go. Thank god father don't left us when I was forced to go school for some days there but looking at his talking of an arrange marriage in india is expected. He don't want just any nasty leech his princess hole the reputation of generation and his princess only marry hindu if not Indian. Why adding cast after name instead before is hilarious enough, thank god We don't have to add great great granpa, great granpa,granpa and fathers name before ours as done in some part of India like a name long enough filling ten line of page, The idea gave goosebump. if my friends know, I can imagine them laughing at it.
I love my father regardless, love him for not kicking me out of the house after eighteens and always providing me pocket money and always protecting me from any shady bastard in the dark. Hindu father tends to be more protective to daughter thought I don't know if the case is same for other people, I am dady's princess.
Still remembered Tony's pestering. He ended behind bars thanks to Dad. Not blaming Dad for being too much instead am greatful to the god to provide such a caring father, Overly caring.
The assignment SST teacher of finding names of past ten ancester's names made him seriously accompany back to haridwar prist house to find out all the past history of ancestry from all those rotten paperwork in aror-vansh society.
With mom being overly nagging about not talking any language except Hindi and Granma more to childish side in care and greatness of Dad, the Home really feel like Home. This kind of feeling cann't be felt in any of my friends living so Dull in wall, cann't Imagine life without them but here I am living as spending the days wishing to be back home I miss dearly. Everything is perfect except the rule of speaking only hindi at home and no cursing. Well I don't seems to adhere to the second rule of 'no cursing' lately.
Ma say-"Don't learn bad from anything including your friend. We cann't take shot arrow/bullet and words back. Once released, will became regret for lifetime no matter how long treatment it take, will leave lifetime scar." She is right though. But here I am speaking anything without thinking how those who care for me would feel.
I have been managing well to keep check my emotion but the moment I scooped a bite of curry-rice, tear threatened to fall out. The taste is not exectly same as back mom's hand-cooked curry but this is what I needed at the moment. I rubbed my eyes before anyone notice me crying.
Monsoon returned out of nowhere. 
Monsoon-"You are crying?" stupid eagle cann't shut his mouth the moment he entered.
After Monsoon calling, the tear I manage so hard to hold back instantly slided my cheek leaving wet mark and I start to sob again attempting to hold back the top up emotion. I am homesick.  
Ruble gently rubbed my back knowing too well what the effect of curry- rice had on me with all the guys looking at me worried and distressed eyes. His consolation did work knowing too well I am not alone in this place. With Ruble around, this place is not that boring and honestly I am being tired playing House with Husbands and Children thinking they are family but It doesn't felt that way to me.
That night Ruble switch position with Shuu to my left patting my back to console me knowing too well I rarely cry and when I do, Only my buddy can handle it. The boys wanted to replace him but they know their place that Ruble is more valuable than anything or anyone of them for me. I cried for a while more, in his hug.
I am greatful to the God to send Ruble to me and am sorry to him for not treating him like a good caring sister in the childhood for not being a girl of sister I always wanted. Regardless, my brother is dearest to me and me to him.

I looked the same familiar scenery of stars and nebulas and know that it is the time for meeting, meeting with Lucifer.
He came floating from some kind of Dark Door, kind the vibe of portal or something.
Lucifer-"Feeling Down lately?"
Doliz-"You know everything!"
Lucifer-"How cann't I. It would be irrisponsible of me not to."
He held my arm and pulled me in hug. Dunno Why I always feel so peaceful like a baby whenever I am with him.
I put my arms around his neck and lessen the distance between, putting my head on his shoulder as he ducked his head slightly to the left and kissed on my head carassing my tangled fringe of hair. His hands effect like soundless lullaby and I found myself dreaming in dream.

The next morning felt like so undescribable refreshing; After daily routine and Ruble culinary health care breakfast consisting mushroom soup, I & Ruble & Pearl and Monsoon set out to Healer hut to look at the outcome of last night deal.
My boys breath sigh of relife looking at me so active and went to learn farming. If not rice than better grain; they need to provide for their mate and it is their duty, Don't wanna bother coming here again.
In the Healer place, We were presented with four different but small pouches of each variety of fiber.
Healer-"So, What do you think?"
We checked the quality and craftmanship of it and sealed the deal.
Ruble was quiet satisfied with it, Have to say to make thing with each of these in such a short notice is really something.
We asked for clothes, mats, doormats, roap, thread or so so, How many and whatever can be made with all the fibers.
After giving a three crystals as downpayment to which the sheep refused to take saying something like life saving grace of last night but regardless; was still stuffed with crystals as We don't want to take advantage, You know The amount of fiber take years for him to finish off himself So, He was suggested to hire more hands to finish it off within two to three days till we come back from salt extracting.
we left back to the cave to discuss plans of our further journey.
