Chapter 36
Then he went to the kitchen and checked if what Albrecht had been preparing.
" Hmm, what are you lookin'?
" Nothing. I just wanted to a.s.sist him for lunch.
"Better. You're just in time. I'm also a little busy in preparing the red peas for dinner. Do you know that I'll go to Kabang tonight? A priest will officiate for a thanksgiving and George is supposed to be there. Anyway, he could not really attend to it, he's still incapable to move his thigh."

" Hey, don't leave me yet. I've heard...that there's a priest among the occupants of Kabang. I'm thinking of bringing him here to officiate our wedding. But, but - you want to get over these things first, start in simple paces and getting to know each other more and more..."
Then she left him smiling and after a single step she turned her head to him, " You need to plant more rainbow flowers for me and plant one significant fruit tree in Kabang, if it bears fruit one day, that's our wedding date."
He was speechless and bite his lips in nervousness.
