Suzie and uncle Bibi were unable to find the lumberjack anywhere around the compound. He had mysteriously disappeared from their view. So they gave up on their investigation, at least for the moment, and rejoined big momma inside the house.
The matriarch was as usual relaxing on the rattan chair while sipping a cup of hot Chai, a beverage composed of boiled water, black tea, cow's milk, ginger, and black powder pepper.
"Big momma, I see you have made Chai already,"Suzie spoke to her grandmother and the latter nodded.
"Well, that's great! I will serve a cup of this marvel to uncle Bibi too." She added while holding the jar of hot Chai in her right hand. She poured some of the liquid into a cup and handed it over to her uncle.
"Thank you, darling!" He said to his caring niece, then tasted the delicious flavored water.
He quenched his thirst with a few drops without pronouncing a word and after a moment, he broke his silence and uttered to the two women in the parlor: "Now I am returning to the other twin chalet to take a nap."
"We had a very agitated afternoon." He explained. And in one shot, he swallowed the rest of his Chai, then retreated.
Suzie and big momma were now just the two of them in the house. They had their eyes locked on each other. And as if they were communicating by telepathy, they declared with emphasis and in perfect harmony: "We have to find that lumberjack."
This was a powerful statement to ascertain their determination to get to the bottom of the unfinished business.
