Chapter 139: Taking It Easy

Early the next morning, Bella, Luke, and Nathan met up with Morgan at the café.  Nathan had a backpack with a few essentials plus the GoPro camera Bella had given him.  Luke filmed as the trio discussed plans for meeting up the following evening.  They said their goodbyes and Bella hugged Nathan before sending him and Morgan on their way.

She and Luke stood watching as the two joined the other hikers who were setting off for the day.  Bella turned to the camera.  “Now we’ll find more adventure here on the Camino.  And cut.”

Luke put down the camera.  “Well, now what, m’lady?” he asked her.

“I’m not sure,” she answered.  “Truthfully, I’m not feeling that great.  My stomach’s a little queasy, like I ate something I shouldn’t have.”

He looked at her with concern.  “Maybe we take it easy today?”

She shook her head.  “Oh, I’ll be alright.  I’ll find some tea or something.  Let’s see if we can talk to the owners of the hostel down the street.”
