"Really miss Amber? How considerable of you." He says, tilting his head.
"Now, if you don't mind I'd like some privacy to devou- I mean to try finishing it up on my already full stomach."
"Of course." With a slight nod of the head, he turns and moves away and I don't give a second glance at him as my priority was the jute pouch in my hand. If someone had traded gold with me in an exchange for this pouch, I would have completely rejected the offer.
Maybe that's not the whole truth... If it was real gold, I could've sacrificed this much.
I sat down back on the ground with Camie beside me, my only best buddy in the empty desert. After I had finished my food, it was time I take a rest. I leaned on Camie and cushion against her for warmth and soft support. But I keep tossing and turning and couldn't sleep. After a few struggling moments with sleep, I finally gave up and sat up straight.
