Beifa is really fade up of cleaning bullfrogs from Jema's fingers and toe nails. She wonders how but can not ignore, their rotten flesh are squeezed in between and he never cleans them because he does not care and will not say a word about it. These raise the nails off their beds and, the toe nails at times bleeds pus. If Beifa never does the cleaning, his fingers stink and smell.
Its been a tiresome day for them both after the day's load of work, if that can be a good guess. Beifa walks a long way to come to him. Their secret love, which is strings attached on both sides brings them to do what they actually can't do for real.
Beifa is fond of stalking a half giantess Wiza which is a wife to the half giants king, Ono who are not in good relations with giants. By the way, these need no king. They are equals and its their pets that finish off the owners' conflicts. Back to the topic, this is a bad thing to fall in every giant ear. This is why; the half giants are organized and since its them who achieved civilization before the giants, it will make them to be or thought to be copycats, WOW no.
Jema is a nobody. Even Baba the mad is better. I mean nothing is known of him to the extent of being unable to appear in public and left to go alive. Jema's a dwarf giant. These has no place in the giant community. To be precise, he's a walking curse. Both giant kinds know there's no other living creatures between them.
NB: If he does appear, the two kinds would re unite for a split second. Forgetting their not good relations. He's got no origin and even Beifa gave up asking him where. He's to hide forever!
Beifa is mother of five. The first father may be Oma; the pet hunter, Baba; the mad, Bello; the squint giant, Gabana and Dolot the two headed giant and finally, the current, Jema.
Jema is so lazy but knows theory love and that's why she thinks will never leave him. He also owns a cave where they rest and snore their throats out."Jema! Jema!" Beifa awakes him, with all her big eyes like domes magnifying every tiny spot on Jema's round face, a few hairs for a beard and a head covered by a blanket of hair compared to Beifa's, a tangled mess, "Will you ever wake up before midday and before I wake you up?"
She asks him as he half opens his eyes followed by a large romantic smile that literally touches his ears"Oh, my queen baby." He whines sleepily. "Call the guards and overfeed you pure milk like undiluted honey and after every baby inside their is full, come to papa."
"I have got no babies inside me. Jema wake up, there are no guards here still."
"Of course, yes, Bei." Says Jema way too romantic you may think he's the girl. "Believe they are around you and you will see them.
"Come on, let's go get some ice for my grand father. His upper lip is just increasing to contract after that bug biting him.
"Am on my way." Says Jema not really awake. Rather inserting Beifa somewhere in his dream which he's not willing to give up.
Beifa leaves his side and comes back with some savouring soft ball of sticky substance, looking like melted sugar and drops it on Jema's opening mouth as he falls asleep again, then slowly flows and a raging wasp surviving out ragingly and bit Jema's nose top.That hasn't done it well but Jema awkwardly gets up, pushes his eyes out as though there isn't enough room for them anymore then he squashes the sticky substance inside his mouth but it turns out that's not his intention. He spits all of it then shoves the whole fist inside his mouth and gets out a number of dying wasps and throws them away. He can no longer cover up his mouth because when he does it, the stinging is hot.
"Let's go get your grandfather's ice." He says getting up stumblingly, his huge self earthquaking the whole cave. This part of the cave is round shaped and nothing special is in there but a small cage hanging on the wall with a skeleton of some small creature. Into the other part, a great table conjoined with stretching belts but so rickety that if they sit around it, their legs supports the whole structure and if neglected,...
The cave is situated at the foot of a certain great mountain which is snow peaked and with the two standing at their cave threshold look like normal people. The tall canopied trees growing allover it are thick grass below their knees. Nothing much. They start up climbing. Jema's nose has a marine green pimple so visible compared to his brown skin.
Beifa has got a gap tooth, or to be specific and just, its not that but a lost tooth and she's fond of fitting sticks in that gap to make onlookers think she's from tooth picking herself. She is light black skinned and long necked.
For all the fine giants she has been with, Jema is feeling lucky. He sometimes thinks he enchanted her unknowingly. For they hardly fit."Tell me about Baba." Asks Jema as they matched on.
"Oh no. Do you mean my son? Cause I named him after his father." Says Beifa modestly
"You mean he's dead?"
"Half dead, I can say"
"I see. Half half.. Half dead not alive not de--
"He is mad! And that was seven years after Baba's birth. Why him?
"Him. Oh him. I mean I've asked about all of them. You know I will never see them. So kata, how's he? Is he safe? Hadn't looked abnormal yet? Because you know he's an innocent curse. Just like they spoke of us."
"Your cave is enough for two of you."
"....Before Oma adopts him as a pet. That pops in my brains every time. Pop, pop."
"He's got Oma's face. He's safe. Ok, here we go."
The vegetated part is behind them now and the large stony coverage faces them. Beifa straightens her pinafore dress and Jema, as if part of the procedure, pulls his suspenders that his shorts tracks in between his bums, hard as rock, and shapes them like two balls pressed together.
"Your too... Woman in that beautiful pinafore. Look at those elfin ears."
Those words cracks Beifa up. Its Jema among all her men who refers to her big ears as elfin. She looks down at her with a flattery smile resting her cheek on her shoulder."Stop it Jema.." she says sweetening her dense voice.
"Thanks for the read."
