Chapter 112 - Building the mud hut (2/2)
”You could ask Pengu to guide you to the closest water source. When you bring some of it, mix it with the mud and cover the sides so that the straw will stick to it. This way the wind won't be a problem.”
Plastering the straws with mud is the only way that I can think of to make it stick to the vertical walls. While it won't be either durable or nice looking, the whole point of this hut it to make us last for a few days at most.
”I will be right back!”
Noticing my enthusiasm, Eve can't help but smile. Just like a parents won't understand what is so funny about playing the games, I guess she is clueless about what is so interesting in building, but she is at least trying to keep my mood from deteriorating.
Seeing her go to find Pengu, I go back to work. After making sure that the four main poles are firmly lodged in their places, I start placing the cut tress horizontal between the main supporting ones while binding them with a flexible straw. While this task quickly turns boring, seeing how my small hut is slowly taking shape, I can't help but work even harder!
As soon as one of the sides is done, I take my windslord and cut the part of the poles that extend by the supporting poles, leaving only the minimal amount of them to make the straw keep them in place. Just after completing the short sides of the hut, Eve finally comes back with the water.
I guess the source is quite far away! Even while taking her potential speed into the account, fetching it back with a self-made container forces her to walk slowly as to not spill it. After splashing the water on one of the piles of earth that I dug out of the ground, she mixes it diligently with her bare hands before throwing it at the bare wood and spreading it equally on the entire wall. Sadly, one gourd of water is far from enough to cover even a short side of the hut!
”I guess it will take at least four rounds. You don't have any other containers that I could use by any chance?”
As she turns to me, I can't help but stare at her lovely figure. With nothing but her undergarments covering her private parts, the dirt splattered on her naked waist and arms is only making her even sexier than usually! I don't know why, but there is something special in a cute girl covered in mud while smiling happily!
”Sadly, I don't have any. I guess it's my fault for not starting this hut somewhere near the water, sorry for that. We will wash each other when we are done here, how about it?”
Trying to hide my mischevious smile, I can't help but adore her sexiness. I will never admit it to anyone, but just working with her like that makes me conscious of all the beautiful curves that she's exposing to me with her every move!
”I guess we won't have any choice. I don't think it would be nice to go at it while covered in dirt!”
