“Hanzel, don't you pick up too much food? The wheel will be full, and we will not be able to carry enough wood later.” An old granny who pulled the cart put on a pouting face. But it was not very noticeable due to the wrinkles on his face.
“Yasmin don't worry, you will pull the cart, I will carry more firewood again. I can still. After all it is not a food ingredient, but a medicinal ingredient for someone we met three months ago.” The grandparents answered it. He smiled as if without a burden.
“Alright I understand, just don't think too much of others and ignore yourself.”
Hanzel nodded. He knew that his wife and he might be old, but the couple understood each other. Even such remote living with complementary lives makes them no different from young people in general.
Three months ago they found Theo lying with a fairly low chance of survival. Because they know that this boy is likely to fall from above or the surface. Moreover, they had seen the bones of the child being crushed.
Obviously if he lived then a miracle really happened. The problem of falling from the abyss was not something to be taken lightly.
They lived at the bottom of the ravine for many years. Maybe because they were trapped when they were young. Fortunately there are still plants and sunlight that can penetrate, so they still survive to this day.
And only this time they found a young man who had fallen into a steep abyss like a high cliff. To their astonishment, the boy could still breathe!
Hanzel is back to focusing on her work. He collected the wood and tied it up using tree fibers.
“I'll carry it, please help me.” Hanzel asked while crouching and trying to raise the wooden rod on his shoulder.
Yasmin nodded. He helped to lift the wooden chunk onto Hanzel's shoulder with all his might. Even though they have aged, they have been doing this for years and have done it habitually.
Yasmin dragged the cart after she helped Hanzel. They finally walked home. The distance may not be too far away, at least it will not make them tired later.
They had finally arrived at a place, none other than his home. Merely, as they entered, they saw a handsome young man who turned his head towards them. Where the young man had just done something.
In addition, their homes are also much more organized. Though they themselves do not have the opportunity to clean it so as to make their home like an unordered storage warehouse.
They become smiling, happy, let alone their feelings of being calm as their home becomes more comfortable. In addition, they were also happy when the young man they helped also stood up straight and was probably the one cleaning all of this up.
“You, you're cured? Finally!” Yasmin said with great pleasure.
Alta turned her head, she thought that this old couple was the owner of this house. He was quite happy when the owner returned. It's just, Alta doesn't know what to do.
For three months the people in front of him took care of his condition. So he is not someone who does not know thank you. Cleaning this place was also a form of gratitude.
“I'm sorry for bothering you to take care of me. I don't know how to say thank you, so I took the initiative to help you guys.” He said, bowing half his body.
“I'm glad you could last for three months. Are you okay?” Hanzel asked quite curious.
It seemed that Alta was also wondering why she did not feel any pain. Should have broken his bones because of the incident, but who thinks he's okay? For three years in the subconscious, could it all be real and influential in the outside world for three months?
He's getting confused.
Besides that he also became confused about why that old old married couple could be in this place alone? Alright, indeed this seems to be far from the elemental beasts
No one else, just the two of them. Also relying on the nature around him that made Alta unsure if if he who was here for so many years, would he be able to survive?
Hanzel and Yasmine approach Alta. They tried to see Alta's condition was fine. It was just that they were quite surprised when they realized that there was nothing bad for Alta. Obviously it was a miracle because Alta was supposed to be paralyzed.
“Ba-how can you be okay? Don't forget, it should be a pretty good thing.” Hanzel smiled with satisfaction. He immediately embraced Alta's body as if not so trusting of what he had seen before.
“Please sit down, I'll cook you a meal. In addition I will also concoct medicine so you feel better.” Yasmine said as she walked towards the furnace of fire that had already been cleaned.
“Thank you grandma, it looks like you don't need to concoct medicine.” Alta rejected him, then she continued her words again. “I'll help you to cook.”
“Oh yes, by the way, what is your name? Why did you fall into a place like this?” Ask Hanzel curiously.
“My name is Altair. I was previously just lost and was consequently chased by a pack of wolves, it was just that I didn't notice the road and ended up falling in this place. That's what I remember three months ago.” Alta touched his head. He seemed a little dizzy to remember.
The problem was that he dreamed like he had for three years, so that his memory was also for three years. Although he was still not sure if the dream was indeed like his subconscious? But it seems like it is, even though he is hard to try.
“You really hit a bad luck.”
“That's grandpa. Only, why can you guys be in this place as well?”
Alta frowned. They did not know Alta as an imperial prince at all. That means they are here much longer than they are 16 years old.
Living in isolation and not knowing the outside world at all. They should be depressed. But in fact, Alta could see the faces of those who were grumbling and did not show a full sense of complaining at all. They live as they are.
Unfortunately he was also curious as to why this great-grandfather could be in this place. Maybe they fell too? Unfortunately it was an unreasonable thing since they looked healthy. If they fell, at least they would not be able to survive.
“It's confidential. I don't want to reveal it.” Hanzel.
It made Alta frown her forehead. She did not know why it was like Grandpa was hiding something. They didn't seem to want to say anything about why they could be in this place.
Nevertheless, Alta nodded. There must be a reason why they didn't say it at all. And Alta would absolutely not force it.
