"Good morning, Sheewa." Tiger said.
"Good morning Tiger." Sheewa replied, meeting her halfway in the corridor.
"It's about time."
"Aren't we just ready?" Vera added, running into them by chance.
"We sure are. It's our big day." Sheewa answered.
"Then let's part right here right now." Tiger said.
"I don't think that we should rush things, Tiger." Vera said.
"Why? Don't you want to avenge Ward? Still waters run deep on that Raven. You should be always alert."
"I sure am. But not your way. You're always in a rush."
"I am. We don't have time. We need to get to the pyramids as soon as possible, and you're supposed to depart with Sheewa in order to free Gerald and Ruby."
"I guess."
"What do you mean that you guess?!" She snapped.
"I said I guess you're right." She tried to calm her down.
"Yeah, that."
Henry is sitting on the porch right outside of the rectangular blue and white pine apple-looking dining in the palace at the Fortunate Kingdom. "May I?" He asked, pouring some green tea for Tammy inside a transparent yellow Chinese cup engraved with a dragon.
"You may." Tammy said delightfully. "Though, you've already poured it right before I gave you confirmation."
"I like to keep my own people cool."
"Thank you."
"You sure do keep your manners." Said Meenji while laughing.
"She's all I've got." Answered Henry.
"So when is the wedding?"
"Hopefully, tonight. I'll take her to church and we'll just get married over there."
"Best wishes."
"Thank you." Both have answered.
"I hope that you breed the best children. Henry is a big shot, you know-Tammy."
"I sure do." Tammy answered. "Really, can't wait until I have my kids with him. After all of these years, I would just come across the idea of bearing a child. Phew!"
"You never know. It might be a blessing."
"Definitely, that." Henry is satisfied.
Taym sat at the middle of the guest bedroom on the feather bed along with the red walls and Turkish furniture. He then got up to the window and stood right there holding his own breath and waiting for the sunset. "I will avenge you, my dearist Ward. And that is a promise." He struggled through his tears.
"Oh-my God,Taym." Alb couldn't help but explode in tears, approaching him from the back in her black long silk dress. "What should we do all without him?"
"We need to keep ourselves strong for the time being, Alb." He turns around.
"I can't take this anymore. I am running out of breath!"
"You need to just pull yourself together. Nothing lasts forever, and Ward is no exception."
"Do you remember the day I've delivered him?"
"I could never ever forget."
"I was holding his tiny body between both of my hands and you've asked me that what should we name him?"
"I do remember that well."
"I said, Ward-since his skin was a soft as the rose and his eyes green like the leaves."
"We sure would avenge him, Alb. Keep faith." He hugs her dearly.
"We sure would." She sniffs while being held tightly in his arms, trying to contain herself.
