The waterfalls served as a lullabye that brings them into deep sleep and the sweetest alarm clock that wakes them up in the morning. Whilst, in everyday it is the sound that relaxes and energizes them inside the cave.

" Hi. How's your sleep?" She curiously asked as she jerked her head down..

" I've slept well." He sheepishly replied and hung up a little nod.

"Hmm, thanks to your flowers. If I wasn't in my pique to rush for trouble, it could have been lovely if I received it fresh from my benefactor. Peace!" She thoughtfully smiled at him.

" You sounded so sweet today and what made the air twisted this instant? Do you think I'm dying and you became reversely nostalgic. Please come." He gently scooped from his pocket some white daisy petals, put them on her tiny palm and folded it in order to profusely keep the flowers that she have just desired to be given personally by her benefactor.

"Wow! You intentionally reserved these petals?" Then she blushed.

" Yes. The moment I could stand on my feet again, maybe tonight, I think I have to fully put a space between us and focus on my men that needs me. So always check these petals in your keeping. Once you see them fading each day, it will also meaningfully describe my heart, torn by the wrath of time and space for losing my soul. He sadly smirked while looking at her.

" But, why?"

" No one needs me here."

" Who said that?"

" You said it, last night. I've heard last night that you only need a family. It seems I wasn't a family member here so I need to situate myself because in the end, no one would even care of how I feel."

" I mean it differently." She apologetically and softly said.

" I must understand so I need to find myself too. No one believes me here any longer and even Albrecht was very noisy last night." He shook his head and bowed on the ground.

" I don't like to be a burden here and can't anymore wait for Amado to nurse me so I must leave tonight for Malapague, in Kabang. I also need a family to take care of me but since I don't have, then there, people might help and nurse me." He bent his spine and went back to bed.

" But Baldur is here." Magee reasoned out

"Baldur needs to work hand in hand with Edmund and Michael, we have to attack the barracks next month and need to burrow some holes at night. He need not to stay here and only Albrecht can watch over you. As for me, maybe I'll still visit you once a month. I know you agree with it, right?"

She left and went back to her bed and desperately cried facing on her pillow.

" I didn't say I don't need him. I just don't like all of them to call him my husband when we're not even married, I was just afraid and can't barely understand the pacing of the whole event. Everything came in like a speed of light. I wanted to start with the flowers and on little beginnings, its as simple as that. But my brothers even want us to stay together. I think, I'm a little confused. But this war is not forever, getting a partner just because its wartime is unbelievable. You go and I'll go my way." She thought while sobbing.


Hours rolled so fast and she'd slept with too much pain crumbling in her heart. When she woke up she has heard voices chatting in a farther then a little while disappeared.

" He'd left. He left me. He made it real." She speculated then sobbed again. That dainty feeling pushed her to doze herself into dreaming more dreams and hide from the nightmares of reality.

" Magee! Magee! wake up, its already 6 o'clock in the evening, time for dinner. Magee! come out now. There are fruits that George brought you last night. Have a bite first then you may go back to sleep. Albrecht almost impatiently called her attention.

" Mag, have your dinner now."

" George?" She stood up right away.

" Yes. I'm still alive, Why? Ah, Baldur and Albrecht didn't allow me to return there with my situation. I insisted but only Baldur went out this afternoon. Anyway, I progressed a little, I can now sway my leg and can step on the ground without any support. It only hurt a little."

She hurriedly went out from her place and went to him.

"Why...as if you found a ghost with your stares. It makes me more conscious." He awkwardly smiled.

" Nothing. I just can't believe seeing you around. I thought you already left. I thought you were heartless for already leaving me. But look, you're still here." She was teary eyed and kept wiping her tears with her hands. Just in time when George extended a handkerchief to her.

"What have I done to you? If I go near its forbidden, it makes you braced in fear like you are with an evil, If I go far and will hide from you, then you'll weep and treat me like abandoning you. I'm... I'm getting crazy not from this war but from what you'd like me to do."

" So tell me...what else you'd like to say, i'll listen."

" Do you think I can nurse you with that wound I created? No. Its not because that I wanted to stay away from you but fir being guilty to nurse my victim. Guilty of being weak, childish and incorrigible. I need you but I cannot explain, do you know that? I loved to start from small steps, little by little. War is not the sole reason to rush."

" Why are you so afraid of nursing me? its just a wound. My goodness. Just think that its just a wound. Pretend that you feed me like a cat and blanket me like a friend. Just dress that wound like I'm a total stranger. Its also as simple as that. Think that I'm a patient that needs to mercifully survive. I need help. Albrecht's hand is shaking."

Near his door, Albrecht was listening and pressing his head.

"This is WWII-b between this two. Gosh! we have so many problems and even dressing a wound is a contagion. Better to focus with my food stocks."
