Chapter 36 - Sister

Chanaka was sat outside the house of Chanaka. He had his hands around his face, fully covering it. "Who are you?' asked Kage San. "I need your help," replied Chanaka still not showing him his face. "For what?" asked Kage San. "I need your help to become the strongest man in the world!" said Chanaka. Kage San looking at the young man. "What is your name?" asked Kage San. "Chanaka" he replied showing his remorseful face to Kage San. "Chanaka!" said Kage San. That is a strange name, he said and called him in.

Chanaka walked into the mansion marveling at it. He followed Kage San into the mansion. "No, wait outside," said Kage San in a strict tone. Chanaka retreaded his footsteps and stood outside the house. He waited for an hour or so and Kage San came outside and met him with a blanket. There! he pointed at the outdoor house. Sleep there! he said to him and walked back into the house. Chanaka followed the masters instructions and did as he was told.

The next morning, Chanaka got up and went and waited in front of the door. Kage San, stepped out. "Have your food, then come and meet me!" he said to him. An hour later, Chanaka spoke to Kage San. "If I was only stronger, I would have protected my sister," he cried in front of the master. Kage San knew it was futile to ask him further about his troubles. But he saw the boy needed some more time to rest. "Have a nice look around the town," he said to him. "But, Master!" he pleaded. "I'am in no position to see the town," he looked at the master with red eyes. "It is nothing but an order!" the Master said. 

Chanaka hesitantly walked outside the mansion to see the town.

When he returned back after seeing the town. It was late at night and Kage San was seated on his porch. He simply waved Chanaka to have some rest.
