SURVIVORS
367. With Aslan
Doctors Chandra, Indra and Sunil arrive at Aslan's house during the day. The house feels empty. Doctor Chandra came out to look for.
"You were there apparently!" reprimand Doctor Chandra.
"Grandfather! You're back!" Aslan leaves her job of drying the dirty and shabby clothes left in the living room, by Dean.
"Yes. It's a little slow, because it's gathering some necessities for you and others." explained Dr. Chandra. "Have you eaten?" ask again.
"One of the aunts delivered us food, because Grandpa wasn't around, so I just spent it" she replied. Doctor Chandra nodded.
"Sunil, Indra, come! Try to help make us some cooking, please" call Dr. Chandra.
"Yes, Doc," said Sunil. Indra followed from behind. They headed for the kitchen and began to bring out food supplies to cook.
Aslan sees two strangers coming with his grandfather. How many people are there in the world? Do they have the same skills as Robert and Dean?" thought.
Dr. Chandra realizes Aslan's exposure to Indra and Sunil. "They're also part of the group." Dr. Chandra answered questions he couldn't.
"Did they have any special abilities?" ask Aslan.
Doctor Chandra nodded. "Yes. Everyone has special abilities."
"It's great," he said in admiration.
"Is your job done?" ask Dr. Chandra.
Aslan nodded. "Yes." Yeah."
"You go get every family head in the group to come here!" doctor Chandra's orders.
"Good, Cake." Aslan immediately went to call the men who were the heads of the family.
After Aslan died, Dr. Chandra took out a stash of groceries. All of these materials are stacked based on their type. Now the courtyard was full of piles of Wheat, vegetables, fruit and meat.
When the crowd came, they were astonished to see so many foodstuffs in one courtyard of the house
"Well, each head of the family, can take two bundles of wheat, a bundle of vegetables, a piece of dried meat and five fruits.
"To cook this, you can cut it to taste, then boil until soft. After that, the meat is ready to be cooked as desired" explained Dr. Chandra.
The faces of those who were shocked and beaming at getting the distribution of foodstuffs, made the heart full. They are simple and kind-hearted people. Although it is difficult, but still remember to share with others, although a little.
The queue started to walk. The atmosphere was bustling, and thanks were starting to sound. They bowed their respects to Doctor Chandra and Aslan. After those people left, the courtyard went back silent.
There was still leftover grain, vegetables, meat and fruit in the courtyard. "This is for your supplies" Dr Chandra told Aslan.
"Isn't that a lot, grandpa?" reject Aslan.
"You are the descendants of the leader of this group. You must have enough savings, in order to help others one day" advises Dr. Chandra.
"I understand" Aslan said. He brought all the supplies into the house. Everything just stacks up in the corner of the house.
"That's not how we store food!" reprimand Doctor Chandra.
Aslan turned to the middle-aged man who was following him. "How's it?" tanyanya wants to know.
Doctor Chandra took out the long stick he had brought from the small world. The wooden stick was spread out under the roof in the room. Then the wheat ties were anchored there. The dried meat tied to the rope by Marianne was also hung there.
"Oh, like that? But I can't fly. How's taking it?" chirps Aslan.
"Later there must be a wooden ladder or other pole and such so that you can easily take it. Let Dean see what can be done with it" replied Dr. Chandra.
"For vegetables and fruit, it is best to place them on a basket. I don't carry a basket. Look in the market instead" says Dr. Chandra.
"Okay, Cake" Aslan said again.
"It's noon today. Do we still have time to go to the market to sell something?" ask Dr. Chandra.
"Will not be able to return when the tide rises." Aslan gave consideration.
"Did you forget your grandfather could fly?" Doctor Chandra chuckles amusedly.
Aslan scratched his head. He completely forgot about it. "That means it can still be, Cake. What would you sell on the market?"
"We'll look outside." Doctor Chandra is out.
"Sunil, where's the sheep?" ask Dr. Chandra.
Sunil took out four sheep in the yard. Aslan was surprised to see the sheep that appeared suddenly in front of him. Sunil also took out a pile of fresh grass for the sheep.
"Grandpa wants to sell this? Did you lose money from buying food?" asked Aslan guiltily.
"We need money to buy everything here. So let's sell this little sheep for the money. Then buy all the other necessities and take it there!" the answer.
"I think everything is in the city" Aslan said.
"Mahaha ... It's not a perfect world. Because our home world has been destroyed. So we took refuge in a small, pristine world. You'll see it. Very beautiful and pure" explained Dr. Chandra.
"Let's go now, before the buyers disappear." Doctor Chandra keeps all the sheep and grass in his storage.
"Come on." Aslan stepped out and walked down the path. Doctor Chandra followed from behind.
"Don't the people here already know I can fly?" Doctor Chandra speaks for himself.
"really. Last morning while washing, they asked that too" Aslan said.
"Then why are we still walking? Stupid kid!"
Doctor Chandra snatched Aslan's body and took him flying down a rocky hill.
At first Aslan screamed in shock. But then he laughed happily, as he could see the island from a height.
"The island is beautiful when viewed from above" he murmured.
"Hehehehe .. Do you like to fly?" ask Dr. Chandra.
"Yes, Cake ... fun! I'm starting to understand why seagulls always scream happily every time they fly" he said.
"Do you think they're squealing because they like to fly?" guess Doctor Chandra.
"No, Cake. They're happy, because they don't have to swim to catch fish!" sahut Aslan with serious mimicry.
"Haha...." Doctor Chandra laughed.
"Oh my God, you're so unique. What would my sister say if she saw a granddaughter like you." Doctor Chandra swoops down on a deserted beach.
"We have arrived. Let's go to the market." Two more sheep appeared before Aslan.
Aslan dyed looking around. They crossed the sea by flying. For a second. The island felt close to flying. Aslan was amazed at his grandfather.
The two walked side by side while shepherding two sheep. On the way, someone asked what the sheep were for.
"For sale, sir," replied Aslan kindly.
"Can it be maintained?" tanyakanya.
"No, Mister. This sheep is for consumption. To eat the meat" said Dr. Chandra.
"But, if you want to keep, we'll bring you something to keep." Dr. Chandra provides a solution.
"really? Is anyone still a child? Males and females may be good" the man said.
"Yes, that's good. We'll see what's there. Can you give me a week?" ask Dr. Chandra.
"certain. In the meantime, I will prepare the cage for them," the person was very enthusiastic.
"alright. Is your home here?" ask Dr. Chandra to make sure. Yeah, this is my house. Not big, but there's enough pages to keep one pair," he replied.
"OKAY. We'll see you next week." Doctors Chandra and Aslan continue their journey to the market.
At the market, the two fat and healthy sheep soon became the center of attention. Quickly, the two turned into a large amount of paper money.
After that both went around the market to buy various needs needed in the small world. Dr Chandra even bought chickens and ducks and geese in pairs.
"What's that for, Cake?" ask Aslan in wonder.
"To be preserved. There is nothing like this" replied Dr. Chandra.
"That means Grandpa never eats eggs?" tanyanya could not believe it.
"Who said?" There's a bird's egg, "delight Doctor Chandra won't lose.
"Hahahaha .. isn't that small," Aslan sneered.
"Yes, small but very much, because there are no other inhabitants besides us. Next time it can be brought here to add a protein source." Doctor Chandra nodded. Ouas with the idea.
Both of them went back to the hill. And sure enough, the sea had gone up. But it's not a problem for either of them.
