Lisa and Jill took us to their village. On the way to Lisa's house there were many people that called out to Lisa and Jill. It seems that everyone in this village knows each other. There was one conversation though that caught my attention.
"What did you find out there Jill?" One man asked, he had a bolding head, so I will be calling him boldie.
"Nothing much, there is hardly any animal out lately, it must be the war. All the animals have gone into hiding." Jill said.
"There are more and more refugees coming to find shelter in our village, hopefully the war ends soon, or our village won't have enough food and space left." Boldie said
"Hopefully the war won't spread to this area." Lisa said
"I am getting worried," another man with a blue scarf said. "I'm planning on taking my wife to the city to live with our son's family until the war is over. You guys should think of doing the same too."
"It would be too hard, you know we have no other family members, if we go to the city we won't have anywhere to live, and we have to get ready for winter, there's only a few months before winter arrives." Jill said
"Then we're going to have to hope for the best, because I also have nowhere else to go." Boldie said
We said goodbye to the men and continued our journey. Before getting far, we were interrupted by a lady about the same age as Lisa.
"Lisa, whose children did you steal? They are so cute"
"Hi Annie, what do you mean whose children I stole? This is Luke, Cassandra and Evaline. Say hi children, this is Annie my friend" Lisa said
We said our hi's and then the adult started talking again.
"I found them in the woods, they said they were separated from their parents and since they were in this area, I thought their parents must be one of the refugees that came to our village. Tomorrow I'm going to get Jill to take them to market, maybe they'll find their parents." Lisa said
"Yes, good idea. Though I would suggest Jill only take the boy." Annie said
"Why's that?" Jill asked
"There are a lot of injured in the market. I heard that their village was attack some of them got injured when fleeing, it's not a pretty sight so don't take the two girls. These children look like they're from a noble family or at least a rich family with such healthy skins and high-quality clothes."
"Your right, luckily you told us Annie." Lisa said
I looked at Luke and Eva, they were both sitting on the ground out of breath. I took a closer look of them both and tried imaging them from Lisa and Annie's view.
They could really pass as noble, with their smooth pink chubby cheeks and soft hands, as well as clothes that are made with modern technology that could not be found anywhere in this world. The other children I've seen around here all where course clothes that looks rough to the touch, their skins are dark from working outside in the farm and with sunken faces from not enough food and nutrients that only rich people have the privilege to.
"See you around Jill, Lisa. Goodluck finding their parents." Annie said then we were of again.
Finally, we reached Lisa and Jill's house. It was a nice one-story house with a nice garden in front.
"Sam! We're back! Sam?" Lisa yelled "Looks like he went out to play again."
Jill put me down and Lisa told us to take a seat anywhere while they put the things away.
Quickly, Luke pulled us closer and started whispering.
"We come from a middle-class family, our village was attacked so we had to escape. Along the way we were separated and that's how we got here. Our Fathers name is Benjamin and our mother's name is Sarah. We own a Jewell store, that's why we're rich and never had to do hard work. Our family name is Lestrie. Got it? Any questions?" Luke quickly finished whispering before Lisa came back in. 'Wow, when did Luke start thinking about our identity?' I thought
Lisa came up to us and handed us each a glass of water. "I'm going to start preparing dinner now, is there anything you can't eat?" Lisa asked
"We fine with anything, thank you ma'am." Luke said.
"Oh my, you have such good manners, my Sam still acts like a child even though he's the same age as you Luke" Lisa said sounding surprise.
Right we're supposed to be little kids now, we're going to give ourselves away if we act to mature for our age but how would a four-year-old act in this situation?
I ran up to Lisa and grabbed her skirt, making a pouting face I look up at her. oh, the humiliation, and said "I wan sumping yummy, I'm hwangwy Lisa" the baby talk is killing me.
"Pffft"
I turned around to see both Eva and Luke holding in their laugh. Those inconsiderate jerks, I'm already sacrificing myself this much, they have no right to be laughing.
"Oh, my goodness, sweetie. Wait just a second and I'll get everything ready." Lisa bent down and gave me a kiss on the cheek.
"Mum! Dad! Are you guys back?" a boy that looks the same age as Luke yelled, when he saw us he stopped. "Who are you?"
"Sam, what did I tell you about yelling inside the house. Now come here and meet your new friends. This is Luke, and this is his sister Evaline and Cassandra" Lisa introduced us. "This is my son Sam"
"Hi, it's nice to meet you Sam." Luke said
"siblings? But you guys don't even look the same" Sam said. See, I knew it. No one will believe we're siblings.
"You must be from one of those rich family then" Sam said
"Why do you think that?" Eva asked
"Because only the rich people can have a lot of children from their secret wives, that's why none of you look the same." Sam said.
"Sam! Don't be rude, apologise right now and where did you learn that?" Lisa said
"from the ladies in the market, they always tell interesting stories" Sam said
"you are not to listen to those kinds of thing anymore, now take Luke and his sister to wash their hands and faces. You too alright. What have you been doing all day to look this dirty" Lisa said.
Wait, many wives. Is that why Lisa believed us so easily? Did she also think the same? We're going to have to think of another name for our secret mother.
