Chapter 38: Insider

Mireille

"All good!" David's yell breaks any silence in the air. He thoroughly examines his surroundings, a smile beaming widely on his face.

I don't know how he can be so buoyant and confident person. I wonder if he knows any emotion other than smiling? I stare at him, while we stand erect in front of David.

"How could he stand smiling, in this pungent odor?" I mumble beside Joel, taking the opportunity of having David busy with examining some wooden racks. He won't be paying much attention to us right?

"Shush, his hearing is good" Joel retorts to my comment in his hushed voice.

"Beside his strength, he's also known for his perseverance though Sir Daniel takes the number one rank for perseverance" Joel whispers back, watchful not to get much attention of David.

"Sir Daniel..." I heave a sigh, as I recall his annoyed face back at the restaurant.
