After that momentary distraction she led him of the nursing bay. it was then that he discover that the sun was just cumming out, he look around as they move through the village square, people going about engaging in different activities...some with bows and arrows... and others with basic farm tools ..he could pretty much guess some of their occupation with this much info. overall the whole village setting give a peaceful and united vibe . making him feel a little more at ease
along the way, he can also conclude that almost every one know him...cause he has been greeted like ten times already... cause whenever be pass by someone he keeps hearing greetings like ' hey little Orion ' ' how is Orion doing today ' etc. he somehow find himself replying with words like ' good' fine' 'getting better '
he also heard whispering of words that spoke of what let to the situation he found himself... apparently this new life also suffered from the same Fate that cut his life short in his old world. death by lightning
" seems everyone knows one thing or another about me Hun" he mused
" you are the village chief son, the next in line so everyone know about you, beside you are not the type to keep a low profile; you are always loud and naughty" Cindy giggles softly toward the end
he just kept his head down not knowing how to reply to that statement
a few minutes after passing the village square he finally say a building that is noticeably bigger than the others just ahead.... with wooden fence around it
there he saw Nora his younger sister who upon noticing his arrival called out to him
"brother"
quickly shortening the distance to give him a hug. which he happily reciprocate.
upon entering his mother room. he found her breastfeeding his younger sibling who has not yet been named since he was born about two months ago.
one of the traditions is naming new born only when they are six months old. then they would be able to choose a name best suited for the newborn.
"Orion you are here, how are you feeling now my child" she asked,
"fine mother" he replied
"you know you shouldn't be stressing yourself, you still need to rest"
"you could have just told Cindy to call me if you you want to see mother after all you are just recovering " she added with concern
"It ok mother, I'm perfectly fine now" he replied feeling glad for the love and care he has been shown
"as you can see I'm all good now" he added while jumping try to prove his point
After chatting with his mother he set out again to meet is father with Cindy who lead the way
he found him at the village entrance with other village members... seems like like they are preparing to go out for a raid. that right going out for Raid once in a while is common here. where they go after bandits and clearing thieves from routes that links the village and town . this has been one of the major difference that set wells village from most ...it also a factor that helps to keep the village more safer cause most of the bandits won't dare to raid a village that pack this much manpower also thanks to the safety of the routes travel Marchants also come around occasionally.
this in return boost the village finances greatly
seem they are heading out now' he muttered as watch his father and the others load their luggages on horses prepared . soon they begin heading farther away until they are out of sight
he just stood there recalling similar scenes of him just watching as his father goes out like this one
just as he was lost in thoughts
Orion Orion' someone called out to him from behind
turning to see who it was, he found out I was a young boy his age from his memories he know his name is Evan and he is his best friend
when Evan finally reach him he was breathing heavily seems like he ran all the way.
after taking time to catch his breath.' you couldn't even send for me to let me know you are awake, I was worried sick and here you are being all handsome and all' he said pretending angry
'oh you admit am more handsome' Orion couldn't help but retort smugly.
'no I think we are both handsome' Evan reply grinning wildly
they look at each other before bursting in wild laughter
'mn mn mn' Cindy cough bringing their focus back .
'oh hi Cindy' Evan just noticing Cindy standing beside Orion
'oh you finally saw me? clearly amused
'well it not like that' Evan cut in quickly clearly scared she might get anger,
you guys do you, not everyone can afford to be idle this early' she said while walking away
'do you think she is mad at me' Evan asked
'hahaha very funny, why would she, you better get those crazy thoughts out of your head. plus I'm pretty sure she sees you as a younger sibling... Alright Evan time to wash up there is a long day ahead of us' Orion replied
but I already did' - Evan
you have? then why do you still smell like sh*t ? he asked before running off
'Hey shit head don't let me catch you' he shout-out from behind before running after him
