Day 11 The Sergeant is In love
Who can say that in the midst of the war there was a love that formed the Sergeant finally fell in love with Chyrill who was stranded in the Place of Simpkins where the war is never ending. Since yesterday until now he needs to keep an eye on every single minute of this place to assure that the innocent people of Northern Simpkins will not be in danger especially Chyrill. He went into the tent where Chyrill is resting, he entered inside and he saw Chyrill is deeply asleep, he was then smiled she's too beautiful in his eyes maybe she got tired in helping the others to save the others and preparing foods for the children, to the people of Simpkins and for them, she must be a fallen angel that was sent to them too funny to think that she was suspected that she's one of the Sans Serif terrorists, but as time pass and days she stayed at the camp he knows that this woman has a good heart.
He moves closer to Chyrill he wanted to see her face when she was sleeping, but at the moment Chyrill was awake and she sees that the Sergeant was looking too close at her, she suddenly got up.
"Oh.. I'm sorry to wake you up"
"it's okay, is there something happened? Do you need my help?
" No.. No.. just checking you if you rest well".
Chyrill just smiled at the Sergeant and nod.
"Oh... Yes, I have slept... I think three hours"
"Sorry to disturb you, you can go back to sleep now".
"Alright, Siguro may gusto ka na sa akin noh? She speaks again in her language and smiled to the Sergeant.
" There you go again, speaking in your language huh".
"Ha ha ha" She just laughs and back to her sleep.
Sergeant goes outside of her tent smiling and feels a bit shy, he just shook her head and back at his post.
She covers herself in a blanket and trying to go back to sleep, about an hour since Sergeant has visited here in the tent she can't be able to back at sleep again, she is now wondering for how long Sergeant Herrera looks at her while she is sleeping, she decided to get up and help the others to prepare a meal for the kids, the people of Northern Simpkins and the Arland Soldiers.
She came out of the tent and she sees that everyone is busy she sees Sergeant is coming over her handed with a bowl of soup and bread.
"I hope you rest well"
"hmmm, yes, I had a good sleep, " she said, but, actually she hasn't enough sleep, she was not able to sleep again from the time he entered the tent.
Sergeant Herrera gives to Chyrill a bowl of soup and a bread.
"Thank you"
"Enjoy your meal, I know it's not too enough to fill your empty stomach, but it helps you a lot."
She just nodded and smiled at the Sergeant.
Not far from where they are standing with the Sergeant they see the children are fighting because of the bread, she went to the children and give a bread to them the one that Sergeant Herrera gave to her she look from distant the Sergeant and she smiles at him. The Sergeant just scratched his head and returned to his post.
"This is for you, okay? So don't fight okay?
The little girl gets the bread from her and ran back where she is sitting. She looks around all is totally damaging their homes, their source of daily life, children are crying and the old are frightened. Their life is harder just because of the never ending war between the Arland Soldiers and Sans Serif terrorist here in Simpkins.
She walks away from the place of the explosion, she needs to breathe and think for a while, she don't want to cry in front of them and she feels, ashamed if she sees Sergeant Herrera crying again. She tries not to cry, but she can't control her tears falling down to her cheeks and this moment she thinks about their friends who has been heading here too, where are they at this moment and how is their life been going through. She back to the Place of North Simpkins and the soldiers is busy in building the tents for the temporary shelter of the people of the North Simpkins, she handed a help to the wounded and helps to cleanse their wounds and attend another medical assistant to the best she could. One of the Arland Soldier comes to her and gives some pack of food. She smiled and gave thanks to him,. She sits at the bark of the tree and starts to eat the food that she gave to her.
It's late afternoon when they had finished building the tents and the wounded are all cured, the Sergeant and the other of his men decided to go back at the camp with her, she hates to go and leave the children in this kind of situation. She wants to say goodbye to the children, but she chooses not to see them before she leaves, it's hard for her to leave them and she needs to go back at the camp with the Arland Soldiers for her safety and to have more rest and to wash up and take a bath.
She walks away to the place together with the Arland Soldiers and with Sergeant Herrera without any glimpse of the children of the North Simpkins, But before she boarded the military truck the children are chased after her, shouting her name and others are crying.
She suddenly froze and faces all the children she was crying too, and she embraces the children and she promised that she will go back tomorrow and they learned a new song and she promised to read a story for them. She finally boarded the military trucks together with the Arland soldiers and with Sergeant Herrera, she waves to say goodbye to the children, she's trying to hold her tears but just like before tears from her eyes suddenly rolled to her cheeks. She cried silently she's trying to hide it from the Arland soldiers and to Sergeant Herrera, but then Sergeant Herrera eyes staring at her.
