The ambush set date has come and they all gathered in front of the wooden house at 1800 hrs. Meanwhile, George never knew that she followed him down to the tunnel till to their former bedroom. Upon reaching she was leaning her face beside the cabinet, posing her back and both palms stamping on the cabinet"s wall; standing, till she slowly dropped her body down on her feet and was teary eyed. Then she has heard him spoke outside."Okay, on your way!" George instructed. She never knew that it was meant for team two and three"s departure since their destination were the farthest. After a while, George slowly stepped inside their old room and noticed someone"s voice, sobbing. He moved closer, turned on the flashlight and turned it off again when he found her covered with hair like an eerie ghost.
" My...Mag?" Then he sat down combing her hair with his fingers, smiling and wiped her tears.
"Hey! haha! why you"re lamenting like that? shh, I"ll get back alive." Then he put her face on his shoulder while he caressed her hair. Albrecht called him outside so he slowly detached himself away from her but she was twirling her fingers on his uniform till on his belt as he unlocked his hand down to her cold fingers.
George walked outside with a heavy heart and in a minute, Baldur came in and forced her to return to the granite house.
" Mag, listen, we"ll survive. We"re not even spending too much weapons there, so calm down. Go back there and take care of yourself, be suspicious and do not let anyone get in. Here, bring this - your sword and another dagger, take them all, okay? Calm down." But she wasn"t moving. Albrecht came in after waiting a little longer.
" Shh...no one knew you"re here so just wait for us to get back, go up there silently, Magee." Albrecht, knelt snd summoned her. But she"s not moving.
" Mag, Mag-Mag, Mag-Mag." Albrecht repet.i.tively and crazily mentioned her nickname that made her smile while pinching a little of his ear and without her knowing, George was just at the back of the door, listening. So it was enough to move her feet to get down and she"s gone.
"Hmm...Baldur, I need to carefully lock this secret hole, help me. Just don"t turn on the light." The brothers carefully locked it so that she could not get out from there. After securing the location of the secret hole, they went out and finally joined with George and company.
George wanted to get back and comfort her but he knows the granite house is the safest haven within the warzone and enemy lines. He was very silent while pa.s.sing through the secret cave facing east and then the three guards (civilians) left on post, including Fr. Matias. They waved a hand and the priest even prayed to bless their way.
