Living in a Shield World
Looking for Spain

SEARCHING SPAIN

Rossy and Edward have taken too much of Andy's attention, my mission to take The First could fail.

I kept the fake First in a wooden hole, growing white mushrooms.

I still have a check, I have to trade it.

In the military office only Spain can sniff out my whereabouts. I have to go swap, when Spain's not around.

A month here I never heard the name Spain, has the name dimmed?

I had to make an observation in front of the military office, but Andy didn't make me move much

"Merryl now you should be able to create a dictionary for the languages in Edges, there's no reason, you should be able to do it", Andy is fierce right now

"That's Your Majesty, I...."

"Don't worry about Merryl, I've prepared unlimited access coins for you", I haven't finished asking, Andy replied thinking I know what I'm going to say

He went with Sam immediately, I was left with a stack of empty books and a dictionary of sentences that people used to use everyday. Maybe Andy, I want to translate these words into the language of the tribe in Edges that I know.

I could make it five years. There's just Andy.

Now I have to obey, otherwise I could die

The plan of observing the military office during the day failed, I had to observe it at night

I watched with a tight black shirt and black cloth mask, so as not to be seen. I sneaked out of the kitchen when the kids were asleep.

Flying low to the front of the military office, in front of the military office was one old, towering tree. I perched on the tree, watching the passersby. No Spain, at night. It is difficult to observe people at night.

Today, eleven o'clock at night, the office is closed. Only those with special permission can enter. I waited until one night, no one came in. Time to go home, tomorrow I still have to go to the office

******

My days are filled with weird assignments from Andy. She always misses Edward and Rossy, and sometimes I regret meeting my children and her father.

Tonight, I have to look again at the nightly routine of the military office, I plan a full week of observing it.

Still the same, they closed the office at eleven p.m. No suspicious movements until one night.

*******

The eighth day, everything is still the same routine. I don't see Spain at night, which means I can trade The First tomorrow night.

What is this, something is pulling my body up, "REMOVE!!!, WHAT DO YOU WANT !!!! ", Andy why are you pulling me with your eyes closed?

"Hannah, don't go! ", Andy hugged me while saying "don't go", his eyes closed

Andy was flying with his eyes closed, he was dreaming while flying, dreaming about me

He followed his instincts, sniffing for my scent, conscious he wouldn't know me

"GET OFF, YOU HUGGED ME TOO TIGHT", she kissED me instead.

"ANDY LEEEPAAAAAAS!!!", his eyes opened, his wings disappeared he fell, I caught him.

I put him to bed next to the military office, he was shocked and then fell asleep again.

I threw the stone towards the guard, hit!!!, they ran towards the stone in the throw. I hid on the roof, Andy found. Andy's face was everywhere, hoping they'd recognize Andy

"PRIIIIIIIIIIT", a long whistle sounded, something important and secret was discovered. The guard recognizes Andy, the king asleep in front of the military office, must be a secret

******

Andy didn't come into the office today. After what happened last night, of course he has to undergo a series of health tests today, and tomorrow, and tomorrow...

I don't have to drop off food, I just have to sit down to do Andy's chores

*****

No answer, I don't seem to have the authority to ask the king's aide

My days were quiet, in the office alone, only the secretaries of the various departments left a lot of documents, his desk was already full of small tablets that had not been checked.

It's been two weeks, is Andy still undergoing a lot of checks?

******

On Sunday, Rossy was eager to head downtown, playing with Abraham's new gift stick

At six o'clock in the morning, we're getting ready," Mom, let's hurry!!"

"In a moment, I put the provisions in the bag first, be patient"

"Let's go Rossy, wait for me outside" Edward asked

" Oh !!!"

They ran out, very peaceful they were outside noisily like inside the house.

"Let's go, mom lock du's door..."

"Mother, look who's coming?" Rossy was excited, they were both in Andy's arms.

"Andromeda's father wants to come to the city center, can't you?"

"Sorry Your Majesty, my son is impolite", I dare not answer Edward's question

"Merryl, how are you?", asked Andy

"That's fine, Your Majesty, as always. Is your Majesty able to move on tomorrow?"

"Yes, I'm healthy, just having trouble sleeping"

I nodded

Edward and Rossy, calling Andy, Andromeda's father, were disrespectful to the king, but indeed he was his father.

If the children knew how much their father hated me, they would not want to see him. Andy thinks I'm a night woman, he's humbling me

On the way, I kept laughing, considering the events of the past, when I was humiliated by Andy, not called for months, when I was pregnant. Then he disappeared, and came back as Andro. I can't do much except disappear, in the story of Spain.

I who was considered dead, came with a thin, dry body, because it contained the seeds of the original white buffer tribe, which must have been very detrimental to my body which was a filler tribe.

The entire population of the two villages took care of me, alternately, I almost died, pregnant with them

Andy didn't know, and if when he found out, there was a difference in him looking at me. I'm sure Edward and Rossy would be considered other people's children, because Andy thinks I'm a bad girl, who likes to disappear at night

If he knew they were my children, would he admit it. No, he hated me so much that he left without a word. I hate him so much

"It's up to mom..."

They were both running, Andy standing in front of me, as if he had been more instrumental in raising Edward Rossy, if he had known it was my son, Hannah, he would have excommunicated the three of us to a secluded spot

"Merryl", Sam approached me

"Your Majesty just finished doing a health check" Sam said

"It's healthy, right?"

"He's healthy, he's so healthy that he misses someone so much that he disturbs his sleep"

" Oooh", I can't say anymore

Who does she miss, me? He misses nothingness, he only misses his old self

Today feels a long time to me, the memories of the past with Andy, Andro keeps repeating in my head. I hate this guy more and more. Later that night I'll have to change The First
