Lehi used her coal shoes to stable the ground. Ophir supplied her posture with his bone blade. The couple countered the attack thrown to them. It was another tirring assignment within the Kingdom.
Hexel muttered how his complain get doubled when his planned meeting with Sienna got postponed because of the sudden request. Hexel could never forget how this assignment spoiled his plan.
Cyrus gathered them for an emergency meeting that the animals are going wild due to an infection. It was hard enough for them to hold back and not hurt the animals since they were ordered to put them asleep.
His mother is even leading the vet team and medical team which give him zero chance to at least glance at his lovely wife whom he missed so much. Kiel noticed Hexel's silent argument. His mood were beyond percieved that he ended up doubling his speed in making this infected animals asleep.
Kiel tried to tease him but was surprised to recieve a glare from the duke who never betrayed nor threw a punch at his face.
"You know what, if only glare can kill then I am dead. What's with that reaction?" Kiel voiced out.
"Yes I am good and all it's just that I am supposed to visit Sienna today since it's her birthday." Hexel uttered.
"Oh, you must have planned something romantic for her." Kiel commented.
"Nope, Nothing really. I just want to see her." Hexel admitted.
"I envy you. You have that yearning to see your wife. In my case Lila would just do her daily routine and would doze off to bed." Kiel complained.
"Tell that to her not to me. I won't be able to help you." Hexel answered as he stared at Lehi and Ophir sweetly supporting each other.
Kiel tapped Hexel's shoulder and said.
"I know how you feel."
"The list of animals inflected are quite high. I recommend that this kind of infection should be found out earlier before the whole Kingdom got involve." Tera recommended as Waheb and Gatsby sheugged.
Kennan and Ecles even lend a hand to help subdue the quaking event and it had them done for the day.
Hexel sighed in dismay. Tera even assigned him to help in the healing committee with Lehi. When Hexel empowered his speed and focus. They were able to tend the animal and human all afternoon.
"We observed that the animals get back to their senses upon treating.We have gathered the infection and stored it on our tube. The researchers will do their job." Hexel announced and tossed his lab gown. Lehi never saw Hexel that impatient.
"Are you alright" You seem to be in a hurry all day long?" Lehi inquired as she match Hexel's pace.
"Yeah, I am supposed to meet Sienna today since it's her birthday but it already evening and I have no means to see her and celebrate with her." Hexel professed as they enter the Myrhh Cinnamon.
Lehi grinned at Hexel when she caught a figure that is familiar.
"Well, I bet you don't need to be that rattled because she is basically here." Lehi spilled the bean and Hexel was dumbfounded.
The Tale Bearers celebrated Sienna's birthday. Hexel later on learned that the Tale Bearers are in sync with his wife. The all day duty had him worried sick but was just a backdrop for Sienna to surprise him. Kiel roasted Hexel as Lehi recited his lines. Hexel just shrink in flustered and bashful gesture as Sienna teased him.
Kish and Eyel were the only one left by the Temple. Sage went with Sienna since he missed the triplets. Kish knew that his feelings will soon be obvious that is why he talked to Sienna and Sage to give them a privacy. Kish prayed for clarification and confirmation that if Eyel is the one for him. She will scoop the ring he added on the soup and would ask. If this ring is for cooking technique.
Kish did as what Sage recommended. Kish knew that it was stupid and is a unusual way of sign but Kish is desperate and his emotions are killing him. Kish served the whole pot the table.
Kish invited Eyel for dinner and allowed Eyel to scoop her own food. Kish intently watch Eyel's every move. His eyes almost bore a hole in Eyel's hand.
Eyel grabbed the saddle and stirred the soup. She waited for the aroma to arise before filling in her bowl. Kish observed that Eyel's been eating continuously until Eyel took her eight bowl. She strated to cough and even twist her stomach. Kish got worried and accompanied her by the toilet. After returning to the cubicle countless times Eyel held a ring in her hand.
"Why is this ring in my stomach?" Eyel barely asked.
"I added it as a special ingredient." Kish answered scratching his head as his face started to blush.
"What? Is that another technique in cooking?" Eyel followed up nonchalantly.
Kish blinked his eyes and felt likebhis world spinned in a fast forward background and slow motion gestures.
Kish can almost hear his heart beat as if it is built in his ears.
Eyel waited for his answer but Kish just stood there in daze. Eyel walked passed him and decided to take some rest since her stomach reacted violently. Her step got stopped when Kish kneeled in front of her and said.
"Marry me with that ring!"
Kish shut his eyes only to see Eyel tilting her head and almost chuckling.
Eyel just uttered a simple no and left Kish unmovable from his spot and position.
Kish cannot believe what he just heared. Here he was praying for the woman he saw in the dream and even recieved a confirmation from the exact sign he faithful beseeched but was suddenly got rejected. He released a laugh containing disbelief and asked silently asked as he reviewed his action. " What just happened? Why is this happening? Did he misinterpreted the dream?" His train of thoughts continued to roll over his mind.
