Chapter fourteen
Niverea wished the carriage would arrive soon , so that madvil can leave her be . The rotten stench of her teeth wasn't helping her a bit .
The weather was warm , though they were sitting under a shade. Madvil had been going on and on since about an hour ago about how Niverea needs to take care of the huge cow .
Build had gotten down with his usual sickness yesterday, muscingcoi was a disease that affect the nose and lungs . It slows breathing and increase body temperature .
He was the one that was supposed to sell the cow , but due to his sickness the chore was passed down to Niverea who totally wished the case was different .
About ten or more people sat down close to them under the tree, all waiting for the carriage that was going to the main city . Niverea had only heard a lot about the main city , Bupaytgr . The centre of finance and civilization .
She heard about the tall buildings and different way of life . Niverea had totally longed to see the fabulous place with her own two eyes but certainly not with condition as this .
The huge cows , that arguably the most biggest of the herd was tied to a nearby tree and it munched carelessly on the low green grass . It had some beautiful black and white stripes and it body was really meaty and offered to be really chewy and sweet .
Great , now Niverea was even preparing on how to cajole the customers . Madvil long talk had been growing on her .
But then there's also the issue of whee the cow would stay , because obviously she wouldn't be able to carry the cow around , on her lap ,or on her back .
The women chatted away loudly as the clutched their bags to themselves . Their teeth were stained yellow no doubt from eating and chewing dàá . Sometimes Niverea just couldn't get why people loved the fruit some much .
It causes a lot of great damages to the body and can be really bad if addicted to . Their teeth for eventually rotten away and their breath stank.
Niverea could only shook her head and she looked around . The yellow liquid the oozes out of the fruit was so bitter that it probably took around three days for the immense bitterness to disappear from her tasting system , the day she had a taste .
Fascinated by the color and the abundance of the fruit by the doorstep , she had decided to "borrow " one from them and see how it tastes ..
Much to her suprise , it tastes and smell so bad that she had no choice but to almost puked out her stomach . A light shudder ran through her when she remembers the incident .
It was said that dáà was very plentiful in the city . Much more than it was in this place . She'll see for herself .
The cow mooed as it let out a huge poop . It looked kinda uncomfortable for it as it was getting stuck in it's anus . A light murmur ran through the little present crowds . Some were disgusted by the sight and others were totally fascinated .
"Is that a cow ?? . " The woman who had a child strapped on her back pointed to the munching cow and asked with excitement .
Her attention was pulled away from the two gossip mongers besides her who gave her some left over piece of dáá when their eye made contact .
Niverea was quick to throw away the irritating fruit .
Madvil had her attention back as her talk wasn't that of how to talk care of the cow again but now how to get good buyer and good deals .
Lie , seduce ,flirt , made eye contact and smile . Flail your hairs . Make your eyes crinkle . Don't talk back .
Niverea eyes widened and she almost laughed out loud. All this because she wanted to sell some cows ?
Well, this is a bit unexpected even though she was used to the suprised and unexpectedness of some situation , this one still kinda threw her over .
She sighed and pinched her brows secretly . Cos madvil musnt know ,else she'll accuse and nag her to death about being rude .
Niverea could understand where madvil's worry was stemmed from . All the cow looked healthy and in promise of good meat , it was still very hard to sell .
The demons and other creatures in big city rarely eat or have any usefulness for them . how's cows and other domestic animals other than horses .
The love eating ferocious meats , that has blood on its hand .
The blaring horn of the carriage came at last , just when Niverea thought she'd go back home from this hot sun .
Many people stood up in agitation and frustration . They all wanted to get out of here and get into the carriage to get going . As the carriages approached , Niverea could clearly make out their features .
The one on the left looked very long and wooden . It door had lost an hind and was barely held together by some sickly nails . God only knows what the inside of it looks like
The second one on the left looked a bit better but it wasn't as large or long as the first one . The roof was shaking and moved a lot when they were coming .
Niverea was quick to make up her mind . In her theory , a broken hind is better than no roof . At least she'll be free from rain lashing if the weather was to change as she had heard much about .
