HER POV

The two finally appeared at their meeting place. Two hours late. They supposedly there by eight. The girl group were there thirty minutes late but Gab alight at his car scratching his head at ten a.m. The guy craned his neck around while walking towards his passenger door. Actually half running, as Jb didn't wait for him. The pregnant woman opened it and slid outside without him. He scratched his head again with that and craned again his neck. The craning stopped when he finally saw her walking towards him.

"Why are you late? People already unloaded all the drinking water," she asked on low voice

"Sorry, we need to do a stop over everytime so she can pee," Gab hushed. She doesn't know if that statement of the guy was sounding pissed or really in remorse for coming up that uphill province late.

The small dark haired man with a white coat immediately came to the girl with an open arms. So Jb knew the doctor then. She met him earlier and the guy showed gratitude for those medical supplies they carried then immediately called women to do counting of the medicines.

All the girls including her started started to talk to women there. Few kids in sight as most of them were in school. The ladies said the children walked an hour to their school as there's no school nearby and transportation was scarce, that's dedication towards education.

"How's Saltie?" Frida asked when Jb finally walked towards them. That's after the brown head introduced Gab on the head of the community and the doctor

"Oh, not so bad," Jb replied then those blue eyes stared at her. "Surprisingly, you're man good at pleading, tsk, what a talent"

She made a dropped jaw before asking, "Pleading?"

Jb bobbed her happy face with that high ponytail wriggling at her back, "Yeah, I need to stop over almost every household to pee. He did the pleading to the owner of the house for me to use their restroom"

She gasped, Gabriel White pleading to common people?

"Then for those poor huts who have no running water, he became Jack who fetched a pail of water," the girl continued

"Now that's how to do it," Frida said and the women made a high five.

She looked at the two confused, "Frida, did you planned it?"

"Of course, that's why I told you to come with me and Tin," Frida replied smiling proudly

"Gab's not bad, I told you girls," Tin commented. "He's just born on that family who happened to have stupid culture."

"Political sargassums that is," Frida said

Did she just said orgasms? Patty quickly looked at her surrounding then hushed, "There's too many kids here!" They were preparing to help the doctor for the sick and that's under a big tree with small children running around.

"O please," Frida said, beckoning one of her hand towards her, "I said sargassums. Those seaweeds who never went below the seafloor. Always floating."

Jb chuckled, "It's just sounded different, alright, because it's you who said it Frida." All of them laugh at that realization

"The world is full of unfair things," the brunette spoke again after a while

"Aw," Frida stated. "What's with your unofficial favorite quote?"

"Look," Jb said while nodding towards Gab who's speaking to a guy. Jb's right finger was on her chin and folded the elbow to braced to another. "Why Gabriel's eyelashes still seen from here? And he's a guy!"
