"Where did you get that horse, boy?" Paco met Jacob right away at the door as the latter secured the animal to the post.
"Nice house, Paco," Jacob replied and met the only father-figure he knew.
After a quick hug, Paco asked, "Have you eaten lunch yet?"
Jacob shook his head. "I'm quite hungry as a matter of fact," he answered, then his stomach growled. "See?"
They both laughed at the same time, "Come in then. Is this all you have?" he said as he motioned to one pack that Jacob was holding.
"This is plenty. You know I do not require much," he responded as Paco led him to his house.
Paco took his pack and placed it on the settee nearby. "I'll show you your room later on. You have to try my daughter's cooking. She cooked chicken ginger broth soup. It's quite tasty especially if you pair it with rice. Come on," he said and directed him to the dining table.
