The Atlantean Compensator 154 The Kiss of God's Mouth

But then, came your 3months sudden trip to complete your studies.

Which is normally good news, however I was surprised how my daughter had no information about it whatsoever. She kept avoiding my questions and I have lived enough to guess why!

Now that you're back, I still find it odd that you haven't posted for a stable real job, I know you get some income from the art you make, but that is one of the reasons why I am stating you don't have enough stability!

We don't even know the kind of studies or diploma that you got from that 3months trip, not even where!?"

Herald was put in front of a huge wall right now, that he only could stare it.

After seconds of silence, Jabari shoots his last shot.

"...And the last thing, Muruem's biggest source of doubt and fear. Is how you constantly avoid and run away from what comes after being engaged.

Muruem refused to say a word about it, but i caught her once crying on her mother's chest about how she feels so unsure of your decision and plans!

A man has to know what a woman would feel like, what hurts them and the degree of hurt it causes differs from that of us. They overthink more and need to be assured by actions not just by words.

At this point, she might just as well be the one to ask you to marry her!

That is not right mr.Herald, and as a father, Mr Lumyeer will definitely agree on what I am saying.

I know him to be an objective rightful man.

Am I right?"

Lumyeer. "You're absolutely right, I have nothing to add for neither side.

It's for Herald to have a say in this."

Herald's head was buzzing...

'I'm being oblivious to her feelings?

A man should know what a woman would feel like...

Heh...I am not oblivious to it uncle, I know it more than you ever do even if you were her father!

It is not that I neglect them...

It's that I can't do anything about it!

Though I can't say anymore that I am a human like you, but I am still just a human.

I don't know what is best for her anymore.'

Herald felt like he was talking in a pitchdark room alone to himself, where nothing exists but him and his thoughts, his fears...

It took him long to finally respond, but his reply was so far from what both men expected.

He laughed, with his hand put on the back of his head!!

"Hahahahhah...I guess I don't have anything to say either!"

Even Lumyeer was surprised, this is not the same Herald he raised and seen his growth through the years! He usually has a response to every claim against him, even if he was wrong on occasions but he never goes out without saying something to defend his case. The laugh and carelessness adds more to his surprise!

Jabari, unlike Lumyeer, does not know Herald as much, so he took it just as it is.

"I see, I guess you do realise it yourself then.

It will be the last time we'll have this talk, because the next time my daughter will be back to my side."

And there comes Muruem, with her cheerful smile and energetic presence.

"Hmm! What is my family talking about?

It seems it's pretty serious in here..."

Jabari. "Just manly talk my daughter, I can smell a very tasty dish is being prepared!"

Muruem. "Absolutely!!

Herald I want you please to go get me somethings from outside!"

Herald. "Ah alright!"

Jabari. "No, that is unkind of you to send someone who just got out of hospital Muruem!

I'll go instead."

Muruem. "Oh yeah, i really forgot for a moment...Sorry honey!!"

Herald. "Hahahahahaha!! Nah nah don't be.

It's not like I lost an arm or something!"

Lumyeer suggests that he goes out with Jabari as well, and so they did. Muruem got back to the kitchen.

And Herald, sat alone in the hall room.

His face, completely changed from careless and playful, to straight up hardcore!!!

It was neither being mad, nor sad, nor frustrated, nor pressured, it was beyond showing a certain feeling.

A bottle of glass put on the table near him, suddenly shattered on its own!!!

Muruem came hurrying up to see what happened!

"Herald!!

What's that??"

When she came up, she found nothing on the floor!!

Herald. "Nothing honey.

What is it?"

Muruem. "I could of sworn that I heard the sound of glass shattering!"

"No, nothing happened here don't worry.

Must be your imagination." He calmly replies.

Muruem. "Ah...Maybe!

Okey I gotta back to help them, but give me a kiss first!"

She quickly leaned to kiss him on the lips, but he ignored that and kissed her on the forehead!!

A kiss very gentle and true, that surprised her and froze her for some moments...

That kiss signified something great, but only Herald knew exactly what it really meant.
