11 Chapter - 11 (2/2)

As Brenda saw David is not ready to start, left with no option she started saying what she knows about the decree.

”But you still have some uncertainty about the decree! That is enough then; Let us go to Asher and find the council and raise our issue” Sussan declared.

What David and Brenda feared happened as Sussan became the stubborn lady and just jumped into action without a plan.

”But how are you planning to go? Do you think we will get one more magical stream and it will take us directly to Asher? Are you brainless? Don't you know all the portals have been damaged and even traveling internally has become a big mess” David shouted as he was having a headache looking at his wife who just jumps to solutions without much thought and it is always impossible to convince her otherwise, once she decides to do something!

Sussan stared at him angrily. David then understood that without food and water for almost a day his brain got fried and he shouted at his ferocious wife.

”Aaah… I am so thirsty! I'm hungry! I am fainting...I am falling down...” David acted as if he would really faint any second.

He coughed loudly and fell on Sussan's shoulder with a thud and held her tightly. Sussan then took the infinite pouch and fed him water which she collected from the stream and patted his back.

She understood David's questions were not wrong. Without the military's help, there is no way they could reach Asher easily.

Unless they try the old traditional way but it is not good to mention it at this moment as David would never agree. Not only is it more dangerous than crossing the border but it is highly risky to do anything right now.

”Let us eat now. It's quite a tiresome adventure we had, better fill yourself and rest to think clearly later about our issues in hand one by one”, Brenda tried to change the topic as she could not face this love-hate couple argument anymore.

She might just blow up and start fighting with these two if they once again start their mind-blowing performance.

Sussan just nodded her head and took out the wild fruits and berries. While Brenda took out a loaf and a few fresh homemade dishes from a pack which made Sussan raise her eyebrow.

”What? I am not going to starve in this wild goose chase. I have to maintain my strength to keep my spirits high for upcoming days”, Brenda started cutting the loaf with a knife and sharing it with the couple.

Seeing that Sussan is still staring at her, suddenly the thought hit her… Oops...

”Oh! Are you asking how I got all this food?” Brenda asked with naughtiness smiling in the corner of her lips…

Still not receiving a response, Brenda said,

”Oh! Come on! My grandfather left an inheritance to me and it included this cute little pack, using which I can take anything from anywhere on this planet. But all I did was take some tiny little food from my own kitchen. And I lived in that house for 15 years, so that is acceptable” said Brenda without any guilt of hiding such a thing from Sussan.

Sussan just shook her head and started eating but all of a sudden she felt something was definitely wrong.

”Are you sure, your husband let you go just like that? If not, why does it feel like he ordered the kitchen to make all your favorites?”, Sussan just kept staring at her without blinking.

David just smiled and nudge Sussan's elbow to make her stop the staring contest and eat.

With all the hassle, Brenda did not notice it before but now even Brenda felt that it was a little weird. From day one she started taking food until today, she found that all the food was to her liking and Roberts.

But then Brenda realized, today when she took she noticed that only her favorites were there and not Robert's. This definitely confused her a lot but still unsure if she should tell the couple before her that her husband James might have found out about their sons being traveled across the border.

Brenda then thought to wait for some more time to be sure and reveal it to her best friend, Sussan, and David.

By the time they finished their food, they saw a group coming from the east which is from the direction of the border. They were not sure if it was help or foe.

So thinking that it is better to be safe than sorry, they started clearing the area and hiding their prints. Slowly they moved away and searched for a place to hide. But before they could find a spot to hide, they heard a familiar song near them.
