Chapter 8 - War

Despite the fact that this day was very trying, I do not happen to find the sleep right away.

Instead, tons of questions saw my mind without I can answer it:

"How are they? Where are they? Do I have properly explained the progress of my plan? Will they succeed in making their goals correctly? ..."

So many questions to which the answer escapes me.

To take care during my lack of sleep, I began to think of my plan once I would have recovered the money and that I would have distributed it between us.

But even think about it seems impossible to me right now.

I forced myself to close my eyes and asleep; What I managed to do after dozens of drowsiness.

[The next day, after spending one night in the Hosa de Tama and Sergio: 02/07/499]

When I woke up, my first Reflex was to look at the wooden clock hanging on the wall in front of me.

I do not know if it's because of the darkness, if it's because I'm not very well awake or if it's because the clock is deregulated, but when I read this clock, L 'Time displayed on it is 22:30.

My first reflex was to get up and light the light.

I got up and tired on the string to light the light, no change had premises for 10 good seconds. Then suddenly, the light was illuminated and it was not because of the darkness, nor because I was awake or because the clock was down. No.

I had beautiful and slept for more than a day and suddenly, I was taken from a huge doubt: "And if I had slept more than a day?"

Just imagining this question in my head made me appear chills in the back and neck.

I absolutely needed to know, the exact day we were.

So I pointed out without losing a second, a jean and a t-shirt and I left for Tama, to be able to be fixed on the date of the day.

I opened all the doors and the only things I saw was a couple of thirty years sleeping in their bed.

I hastily descended the big squeaky stairs, while making a boucan of hell.

And sitting on a chair, in front of the table, I found Tama, making sewing.

This time, given the noise I did, she had heard and asked me:

"Ah it's good, you're finally awake? »

"Uh yes yes. But I did not come for that. I replied.

"Okay and in that case, are you where for what? »

"I am here because I absolutely want to know, the time we are, the day and since what time I sleep. »

"Ah, that's only for that? Yes, no problem, I'll tell you. »

After hearing these words, a wave of stress walked through my body and made me tremble.

She answered me with the greatest calm in the world:

"Then it's 22:35, 02/07/1999 and you slept for 25 hours in a row. »

"Oh no, shit I'm not going to have enough time to do everything I had to do. I have just lost a whole day of travel. I will take too much delay. »

"And where do you travel? If it is not too indiscreet. She asked me.

"Yes of course I can tell you. I intend to go to the city of Meh. »

"Meh? This is not the door next door. And you count you there? »

"Yes, I know it's a holy way from Taïki but I have to go there, and anyway I have to rent a bike, so it will be much faster. »

"Ah, do you want to talk about Kary, the bike shop manager? »

" Yes surely. »

"A board," said him that you come from me, like that he will not teach you about these exorbitant prices. »

"Thank you very much for Tama Council. »

" No problem, it's normal. Make a good trip to Meh and especially do everything to survive. »

"Thank you, you too do not kill you. Bye. »

At the end of this discussion, a door noise was heard when I pushed the big front door of the hostel.

Despite the very late hour, the fact that the bike seller be closed and the hostel culveries me much more expensive than expected, I could not allow me to sleep a 2nd night in this inn.

Of the 130 euros that I had taken away, he had already left me more than 90. Let 10 be less than what I had planned and from writing, I lost a whole day to sleep, which means what means I have left for me at most 5 days to wait for Meh city, put our house in pledge and return to Dorta to find my family.

Doing all this in so little time was almost mission impossible, but I had to do it because all my family relies on me to survive this war.

But before thinking about finding them, I have to find a quiet place and shelter to fall asleep, because at this time it's dark night, so I can not do anything except that it's just sleeping .

While staying on the spot, I scanned from the eye of the places to fall asleep and I saw one, which was some home of me.

It was an entrance or was a small raised terrace, sheltered from looks and dry, it was even better than I hoped.

I urged as much as possible and put myself into a ball against the wall, and fell asleep in this position, without any negative thinking to disturb my sleep that night.

[The next day, 03/07/499]

I was raised much earlier than the day before.

Judging on the sky and the temperature, it was not long since the sun had to get up, I deduced it so that it had to be between 6 hours and 7 am.

I could not hope for better as a wake up, because it's at 7 o'clock that the bike rental opens its store.

So I did the little path I had to do and I arrived in front of the store that had just opened.

I pushed the door and a bell sound and came out:

Ding

This noise alerted immediately the seller who looked at the entrance of his store with a big smile:

"Hello young man, can I help you? »

Surprised that he asked me for entry what I wanted, I took a second step before being able to speak distinctly.

"Uh yes, I'm the because I would like to rent a bike. »

"Oh yes no problem, do you have a preference in brands? »

"Nah, not really, I just want the cheapest one. »

"Okay I see, then there is this bike that I propose 25 euros the day, it suits you? »

"Ah it's true, I forgot to say that I came from Tama. »

" Oh really. All my young men apologies, I had no intention of routing you. Keep to show you my good faith, I offer you this bike. »

"Seriously? »

"Yes of course, it's up to you, take it. »

"Okay thank you very much, you save me life. »

"No problem, if I can help you. Ah and while we are there, I offer you this. »

Kary, the store manager, handed me a piece of folding paper, but we could still see traces of greases and irregular pleats.

And he continued more beautiful:

"It's true that he is a little worn, but I'm sure it will help you during this war. »

I did not even pay attention to the card because all my attention had been attracted by that word "war".
