 After the hanging of the Captain, everyone walked around with their heads hanging low, and scared to death. This is the second time that my people have seen this anger in me. I do not want to scare them to death, but I do want them to know that mean business. As the lady gathered around the cooking area, there were whispers they started dinner. But nothing else was said about the hanging of the Captain. I called Thunder to me, and asked him to cut the Captain down and get a few men to bury the Captain. At Thunder, Wulfie, Igrow and BlakDragon drag the Captain along the beach for the final resting-place the women bring the bell for dinner. As not call for Wulfie, try to hurry up, dinner is ready. Lady's let’s wait for the men folk to get here before we eat dinner. They all nod their heads. As the women fix the plates for the men folk they say a prayer for the Captain. I look at all the children around our eating place, and told them to go ahead and eat. Once the dinner is finished for them to go play. As I looked around at my whole family, I notice the men were returning. They looked hot and sweaty, and really tired. Lady called out to all the man, go to the creek and wash up because dinner is ready. As the man headed to the creek, the children were finishing dinner. As Lucy told the children to head to the park area so they can play while the adult the fear dinner. As the man folk came to the dinner area the women were fixing their plates. As the men settled down to dinner, I noticed we all were silent during supper. As I glanced over at Wulfie I noticed that he is silent also. Clearing my voice I look at everyone, my little peoples I what you all to know that today with a very sad day for us all. I hope and pray that we will never had to deal with a day like today again. It with a sad event, but it had to happen, we all voted on it. Now let's all forget that today with a sad day. Let's get on with our lives, we have many years ahead to look forward to. And now we might have a wedding to plan! That is, if he pops the question. The announcement I just made got everyone's attention. Now the whole crowd of people is in an up roar, the women are asking Wulfie are you going to ask her? And the men are padding him on the back, saying you lucky dog you. As the men go off on there own, us ladies clean up the dishes. As the women giggled and snicker at me, they all want to know how Wulfie and I got together? My cheeks turn red I grin at them all, and say we both have had a crush each other for a long time. But we both are just now getting around to letting the other one know how we feel. Listening to all the women snicker and laugh, bring back a lot of memories of yesteryears. As Tani points at me and giggles we all look at each other and laugh. As we put the dishes away we all join in a circle, in the middle of town and start making plans for a wedding that will soon be in the making. My heart is beating very fast and my cheeks are flushed with excitement. I clear my throat and get all the ladies attention, as I say the words: there is a possibility that he will not even ask me to marry him. And if that happens I will be forced to leave this Island and never returned. So I guess it is all up to Wulfie, to determine the events of my life. I mean we can date for a while or even be engaged for a long time. As long as I do know that he loves me as much as I love him! I will keep you all up dated on everything that happens. As the men folk start walking towards us, all the women started giggling again. Wulfie comes to me and asked if we can have a private time a lone, so we can talk together alone. Blushing slightly I stand and take Wulfie hand, and we slowly walk up the hill. We are silent during our walk as we walk hand-in-hand to the top of the hill. Looking up I notice we have come to the waterfall that I love so well, the spot where my lover always comes and joins me. As we both kneel to the ground hand-in-hand, eye to eye, our lips meet, at first it is a soft gentle light kiss. But it leads to a very deep passionate and loving kiss. As my arms wrap around his neck I feel that deep tinkling feeling that I always had with my lover in my dreams. The feeling that Wulfie is bringing out in me takes me back to my dreams and many nights me and my lover spent together. Pushing Wulfie a way, taking a deep breath I say these words: we need to talk first, I hope you understand. From the feelings you're making my body feel reminds me of nights that I thought was only dreams. I've got to know if you are my lover that comes to me in my dreams? Please Wulfie you’ve got to tell me. It doesn't matter if it is you are not I just want to know. I know how I fill about you so it doesn't really matter; you don't have to tell me I'm sorry. I'm going to sit here and not say another word! Now it’s your turn to speak to. As I sit with my hands in my lap, holding my breath. Wulfie starts to talk, Shecaz the time that I have known you I have fallen in love with you. I enjoy being a round you, you make me laugh, you make my heart skip a beat, my palms get sweaty, and I I'm at a loss for words. I want to get to know you better as I hope you want to get to know me better! Yes Wulfie I do want to get to know you better as well. I have deep feelings for you, I was afraid that you would have noticed before now. Let's go day by day and go from there. But I do hope that we will be together forever. And I hope you fill the same way that I do. I want to have a house full of children running around. I hope with you want to. As Wulfie a smile at me I realize that he wants the same thing that I do. As the days and weeks go by, Wulfie and I see more and more of each other. Spending many nights together in my house on the hill, and at the waterfall. The way he makes me feel he has to be my lover that came to me in my dreams many nights. Even though he has never mentioned it. But I know how he makes me feel. I know it is he. I would stake my life on it. But it doesn’t matter to me any more I found the man I love. My lover, my friend and hopefully someday my spouse. In a few months I start feeling sick mornings and after eating. I don’t think much about it and go on with our lives. A smile crosses my face as I look at the man I love and know I am going to spend the rest of my life with. My soul mate, my best friend, the man I love dearly. I’ve never been happier. Looking across my land my home and my family I love dearly I realize I am complete. |
