Day 7 The People of the North of Simpkins
Sergeant Herrera brings her in this place of the camp where the people of Northern Simpkins live here. When they are getting nearer to the place she feels excited and curious about on how they are living in the place near the camp. When they had reached the place of the Northern People of Simpkins, her heart feels so much sadness and feel pity to the children, they don't have much food to eat and clothes to wear.
She tried to hold her tears back, the Sergeant notices it, but he just ignored. The soldiers bring food for them, she helps to distribute it to the people of Northern Simpkins, and she wonders how the people of Northern Simpkins live in their daily life they are affected by the war and children don't get a formal education.
She sat in the bark of the tree and watches the children that enjoying the meal a forage and a piece of meat to fill their empty stomach that is how they are being affected by the war of the Simpkins.
Sergeant Herrera just looks at her from afar, He feels guilt and feel pity for that woman that suddenly landed here in Simpkins a place where the war was never been ended. He walks toward to her and offers her a hanky. Chyrill, suddenly wipe her tears and get a hanky from her own pocket.
"Oh, thanks, I have a hanky... Sorry about that..... I just can't imagine how those children live their life in this kind of world.
" This is how they live, if I were you don't give much your heart for them". This is their life so you can't do anything about that". Don't get attached to them.
She just keeps quiet, suddenly, their eyes meet and she got blushed at the moment the Sergeant smiles at her. She suddenly averted her eyes from the Sergeant and turned her gaze to the children and walked away from the Sergeant.
The Sergeant smiles and returned to his post, from afar, he just observed what Chyrill doing, his heart pounding every time he looks at her, maybe he was just happy with it a woman once before they suspect as one of the intelligence unit of the Sans serif terrorist.
Late in the afternoon after they had finished distributing food to the people of Simpkins the Sergeant decided to return back to the camp, but, for this time the Sergeant allows her to come with them to the market so she can
able to buy things of her own.
"Are you sure of this Sergeant? I don't have money to buy those things."
"it's Okay, it's my treat for you".
"Oh... Thanks" she smiles sweetly to the Sergeant.
She bought things for her and they buy fruits, vegetables and a meat for the people of the North Simpkins.
"Oh... Sorry Sergeant if I buy a lot, I just wanted to give this to the people of Simpkins.
The Sergeant suddenly sign to be quiet that she wondered why.
" Keep quiet, someone will hear you... Okay?
"But... I just say....
" No more question Ma'am"
She just nodded and walks in the way of the market and picks some fruits and vegetables until the bag she carrying is full enough. Sergeant Herrera gives a hand to carry the bag.
"Thank you". She is smiling to the Sergeant.
"I never know that you are kind too, I thought you are a kind of person doesn't smile at all."
"But now? What you think?"
"You're cute when you smile" She got blushed when she said that to the Sergeant.
"Malapit na ako mahulog talaga sa'yo... (Speaking in her language)
" Oh... Speaking again in your language"(chuckles)
She just smiles sweetly and keeps on walking along in the market place.
She sees an Ice cream parlor nearby, she is like a kid that so excited to see an Ice cream parlor her eyes narrowed and smiles big she quickly goes inside, but before she opens the door the Sergeant holds her arms and pull her away to the store.
"Why? She asked with question in her eyes.
" Don't worry, I have money of my own.. I will treat you"
"No. Emphatically says by the Sergeant.
" But, Why? she says hesitantly
"Why you always asked question? That's an order you should follow". I don't need to explain to you everything okay?
She pulls her arms away from the Sergeant Herrera and keeps walking back to the military truck.
She gets to ride in a truck without asking any help from anyone from the Arland Soldiers or even to Sergeant Herrera.
The Sergeant notices her for being so quiet, he wanted to ask her and say any words, but he feels afraid and hesitant to approach her. Chyrill keeps looking outside until they turn back to the camp. Sergeant Herrera helps her as she got off the truck.
She walks back to her room and thinking about what was happening in the market, she should not act like that it was just an ice cream, but she doesn’t understand Sergeant Herrera why there's a lot of things that are prohibited living here in Simpkins is not too healthy.
