Book 2 - Chapter 6

"The stench was quite strong. I could still fill its pangs in my nostrils. Not sure if I'll get over it."

The lady said. She was still in the gown she had on the previous day. She should be leaving the beach in few days if her husband refused to show up.

The previous day, she had mistaken Ja Lia for her husband and vice versa. The similarities and correspondence of the occasion set the two off and left them with no choice but to get to know each other better. At least, better enough.

"I'm sure she was here."

Vulcan said as he took his seat next to her on the bench which was few metres away from the hut.

"We are very much different I guess."

She said, her arms dancing on the chair. Her moderate waist was bordered by the thick arms. Quite thick for a lady.

"Myself and you or Lailah?"

He asked looking closely at her. He didn't want to miss out on any of the point. He couldn't afford it.

"Is that her name?"

She quizzed. He nodded.
