Chapter 55: The woods- Part 2

Penny gave him a bewildered look as if the man had grown another head, "What?" Damien was looking up at the tree with his eyes set on the scrumptious looking red fruits that hung on the branches of the tree. 

"That one right there," he pointed out his hand at one of the fruits which had grown at the top and the far end of the branch. 

"We do not have a ladder, master Damien," Penny tried to reason with him which the man didn't seem to hear though there was nothing else stopping him from listening to what she just said. 

"I can see that. That is why I said go ahead and start climbing the tree. That one," he said looking at the fruit while not moving an inch from where he stood. His stance was stubborn. Did he think she was some kind of monkey?

"I do not have the skill for it," she frowned, giving the tree a look to see there was no way she could climb this one. Penny had no experience when it came to climbing trees.
