Soon, that pill reached his stomach and the amount of heat being released also increased. When the heat being released became unbearable for Kaal, a thought came in his mind.
'We were tricked.'
But this thought didn't last long as after a few moments he felt an urge to itch. That itchiness increased by time and when Kaal couldn't stand the itching all over his body, he lifted his arms and started scratching. Suddenly he realized something. He could move his arms now.
Crackel! Crack!
Slowly but steadily, all the dislocated, broken and cracked bones in his body came back to their original position and started to heal. Even the scabs and wounds started to heal at a very fast rate.
Crack!
His jaw which was seriously broken had also recovered. Kaal tried to slowly move it up and down and when he felt nothing unusual, he was overjoyed. The heat coming from inside his body also became soft and gentle. He felt like his body was gently being caressed by soft hands. He felt so relaxing and comfortable that he almost fell asleep. After not too long, Kaal slowly opened his eyes and stood up. As he stood up, he saw Khajoor laying on the ground and showing a smile of ecstasy. But somehow, that smile looked a little dirty. Kaal didn't know that Khajoor was dreaming of being caressed by him. If he knew of his dream, he would surely choke him in his sleep.
After a few moments, Khajoor too, opened his eyes and saw Kaal and Chooha looking at him. He smiled and stood up. Suddenly, he turned around and showed his thicc butt to Kaal and Chooha. He excitedly shouted, " See, all the holes in my butt have recovered. Hahaha… I feel so good now."
Kaal and Chooha were dazed by the shining, thicc a*s. After falling in a momentarily daze, Kaal immediately covered Chooha's eyes and shouted angrily, "Don't do this kind of things in front of a kid." He kicked Khajoor's thicc a*s causing him to fall face first.
Chooha didn't say anything at first but then he opened his mouth and said angrily, "All holes have recovered except for that one in the middle. I didn't expect father to give me this type of medicine. Even an injury couldn't be recovered then what's the use of this medicine. Pui! To think that alchemist were so godly. They are just a bunch of scammers."
Thud!
Suddenly, a sound of something falling on the ground came from outside the small, thatched hut. If someone came outside to check what that sound was, they would find two birds abnormally twitching on the ground. They always rested on top of the small thatched hut after their hunt and this time was also the same. When they were about to take off again, they saw Khajoor showing his thicc a*s. That was normal for them as they had seen something more 'vicious' inside that house, but when they heard Chooha's comment, they almost died from chocking on their own spit.
The scene inside the house was not that different. Kaal was on the verge of chocking himself. His face was twitching non-stop. Khajoor also turned around with an awkward face. No one spoke for a while. Only after some time did Khajoor speak.
"Don't worry. The medicine worked and all my injuries have recovered. That is just my-"
"Birthmark! It's his birthmark," Kaal shouted.
"Oh! And here I thought that the injury didn't heal completely." Chooha said, relieved.
Khajoor and Kaal didn't dare to speak the truth. Although they did say that Chooha should ask about 'that time of month', but they knew that the Old man Hawas wouldn't tell everything about that topic. Although he did teach the children some things that shouldn't taught at their age, but all he did was explain about that briefly and this was why Khajoor told his name. He will be taught a lesson but not like theirs or should he say that at least his butt wouldn't have some extra holes, right? While their little revenge was still somewhat acceptable, but showing his butthole to Chooha went a little overboard. Everyone in the village knew that Khajoor didn't walk the 'straight-path' like a normal person or to say, he took 'A Road Not Taken'. As Kaal lived with him and spent most of his time with him, many villagers also used to look at him with somewhat unusual way. He felt very weird at first but he was used to them now.
As the 'unusual path' taken by Khajoor was already known to the whole village, it is positive that Josh would also know of it. If somehow the matter which happened inside the house reached Josh's ear that Khajoor showed his a*s to his lovely and pure son, he would forget about the oath he had taken and definitely shred Khajoor's thicc a*s into pieces and feed them to his Inferno Horses and then die by the lightning strikes himself. That was something they didn't wanted to happen.
Kaal was feeling very angry right now. Khajoor didn't even consider the consequences of his actions before doing anything. Last time it was his chrysanthemum that had been pierced but this time he would definitely die. This time he somehow have to clean his a*s. He thought for a moment and changed the topic.
"How is your father doing? Is his injuries better now?"
"Injuries? What injuries? My dad is totally fine," Chooha said innocently.
'Hmm? Looks like little Chooha was not told about what had happened last night. I assume that we should also shut our mouth and not talk about that. Who knows, if he would use that point against us somehow,' Kaal thought.
"Haha… I was just joking," Kaal laughed.
He eyed Khajoor who was about to open his mouth and indicated him to shut his mouth. Although he was a little confused but he still nodded a little and shut his mouth.
"How did you know that we were injured?" Kaal asked confusedly.
"My mother told me about that. She said that when she went out last night, she found you both heavily injured in the forest."
'Looks like I was right. They deliberately didn't tell Chooha about what happened last night. But why?'
Oblivious to Kaal's thought, Chooha went on and on about how his mother left him alone and went somewhere with his dad last night. He also told about the matter with the scholar. When Khajoor and Kaal heard what had happened, they were both dumbfounded. Kaal looked at Khajoor angrily.
'See, this is the consequences of acting before you think. Gosh! Now because of you, our little Chooha has lost the chance to learn under a great scholar. We are lucky that Josh didn't kill us right away. Now, do you understand what happens when you speak of something that you know nothing about yourself?'
'Yes, my brother. I know I am wrong. I will not do this again.'
As they were talking 'telepathically', Chooha was still going on about the trouble 'that word' had caused. Hearing till there, Khajoor's eye were a little wet and full of guilt. Looking at his eyes, Chooha said, "Big brother I am not angry at you. At that time if I had listened to what you have said and stopped asking you about that, I am sure that today neither you and big brother Kaal would have been injured this heavily, nor would I lose the chance of my life. Instead, I want to apologize to big brother Kaal. He didn't even say anything but he was injured the most. Well, this also serves as an example for me to remember. You don't have to feel guilty about that."
As he said this, he gently touched Khajoor cheek and wiped off a tear drop falling from his eyes with his small hands. Seeing this, Kaal and Khajoor felt warmth in their hearts. Although it had been a very little time since he had met Chooha, but Kaal very much liked this kid. He was the most innocent and intelligent child he had ever seen. Now, he sincerely wanted Chooha to be a scholar. But suddenly Kaal felt that something was wrong.
"But how did you know that all that happened because of Khajoor's mistake?" Kaal asked.
"Although I am a child but don't treat me as one."
