Kaminoniki

Chapter 38

"It is a cold winter day, a second outside will kill this family, but what can this family do other than waiting outside of the house and suffer. On the other hand, the second family has solved their shelter problem; they are living happily inside the house, don"t have to endure the cold winter air. When people solve their primary problem, their secondary problem will start to show. Even though the second family doesn"t have to worry about the issue of where they will be staying for warmth, but the food is still a problem for them at the moment. Since the wild beast from the forest has destroyed their home and sabotaged their food storage, and they are in the hurry of getting out of that place. Therefore, the second family doesn"t have anything to eat, and they have been running to escape their death for a long time; their stomach is growling like a monster. What are they going to do? Since they know that this house belongs to the creature on the ground floor, they figure why not ask them for food. Sometimes, people are greedy, once they grant what their first wish, they will keep going with the second wish. It is not the easy accessibility of getting what they want; it is the desires that people have that make them lost their logical mind. Anyways, the second family goes downstairs to ask for food hopping the creatures will alms them some food; after all, these creatures owns a big house like this wouldn"t mind a piece of bread." The boy tiles his head back toward the back of the couch and closes his eyes and then asks,

"Do you think the creatures will lend them food?"

"...I think so; after all, they know the suffer..." Medusa thought about what the boy told her earlier ago that these creatures are the G.o.d"s victim.

The boy open one of his eyes to peek at Medusa, looking like he knows what she is thinking inside her head, then replies,

"Indeed, the creatures did not mind giving them a tiny bit of food to let them get through the night. The poor first family have to suffer the cold and hungry; the first family is no better than the second family, they too didn"t bring any food intake along with them on the journey of escaping for their lives. The first family not only have endured the cold winter night and hungry, but they also have to what out for the wild beast they might still cruising around looking for food; while the second family can relax inside the house and have an enjoyable meal to satisfies their hungry stomach. Do you think is fair to the first family that they have to suffer pain and danger while the other family can stay safe and relax?" The boy asks.

"Uhm...Yes?" Medusa is a little scare to speak her mind out because she doesn"t want the boy to think that she is a petty kindness type of girl.

"What"s wrong? You don"t sound too confident about your answer." The boy concerns.

"Not...Nothing..." Medusa unnaturally moves her body trying to cover up the fact that she is not too confident about her answer.


"Okay..." The boy acts like he didn"t see her unusual body gestures, then continues,

"However, the first family doesn"t think it is fair that they have to stay outside and bear with the pain, while the second family can carefreely live inside the house. Jealousy can blind a person"s eyes and ignore all the fact that they don"t want to admit. The first family forgets about the times that they were given the same opportunity as the second family, but they blew it, and now they are complaining about other people"s fortune. Off topic here, let me continue; another day another problem, the second family is now living a happy life because they have food and shelter, but when people don"t have anything to worry their desires will overtake their logic and wants a good life to become a great life. Hence, the second family wants more; they forget about the fear they once had with the creature and wants to demand more from the creature, the second family think it is necessary for the creature to give them whatever they want because they"ve already asked enough of times. The second family walks down like the day before to the creatures and aks, "Can we get better food today? The bread you give us is not enough to fill our stomach; we are still hungry!". The creatures looked at the father of the second family and said, "We"ll make an offer to you for some better food." The father frowns and said, "What!". The creatures continue to explain their offer just like they did not see the little face the father just did, "We will provide you guys with better food if you can give us a man, a woman, and a child.". The father seems to be surprised by the offer requirements and exclaims, "What! Are you kidding me? What kind of nonsense offer is this?!". Then the creature said, "Our kind of nonsense. If you don"t want to accept it, then don"t". The father is triggered because after all those wishes the creature has granted them, but this time the creatures are going to reject their little wish like they don"t matter to them. However, he is not strong enough to defeat these horrific monsters, so they have no choice but to leave." The boy takes a breath after the long story, then turns his head slightly toward Medusa and ask,

"What do you think they are going to do now?"

"I don"t know...All I can think about is how brazen these people are! Demanding one request after one!" Medusa angrily expresses.

"Hahaha! This kind of behavior is what human suppose to be like! Infinite demand, infinite wishes, infinite desires!" The boy hysterically laughs while holding his stomach like the laughs are hurting his stomach.

"I don"t want to be like that! I hate that!" Medusa weakly said.

"Oh, no baby! You are not one of them; you are what I say you are." The boy gives Medusa a mystical smile and replies.
