Chapter 23

"What did you do to poor Sergio, Leah?" asked John Hurter, Leah's father, when they all gather in the dining room for supper that night. "He says you almost tore his arm out of his potty."

Sergio laughs. "No, it's really not that bad, John. My shoulder is okay again now. Was probably more my scorned masculinity than anything else. But I know one thing now, a man shouldn't try anything with Leah. She can protect herself against bad characters."

But John doesn't laugh along. He looks proud of her. "So sensei Haya was able to teach you something over the past few days."

"Oh yes indeed. And tomorrow evening he's going to teach me how to work on Sergio's punching bag."

"No, don’t you use poor Sergio as a punching bag. He may be a big guy, but he is a gentle giant," Maria called out, just as she enters with a bowl of fried fish in her hands. Fish that Manual also breeds in his garden of Eden! The farm is self-sustainable by now.

    Hoofstuk 22This was one of the worst nights Sergio ever had in his life. If he slept for an hour, it could probably count as a very long time. He's tired. He was ragged when he finally got up and dressed at first light. What the hell happened between him and Leah last night? Why did she get so terribly angry with him? He was just trying to be nice to her, when he saw how sad she was.Clearly, he had hit the right cord when he guessed that she had left a pet behind in South-Africa. That she's sad about it, he understands. But what he can’t understand is how she could blame him for her waterfall of tears.And it was not as if he asked her to share his bed with him, when he suggested that she bring her pillow and come to sleep on his couch. Honestly, it was not an immoral proposal. He just thought she would feel better if she was not all by herself.He just wanted to be nice with her.Now he understands why is his father always says. Women are strange. I love my wife and daughter, but s

    Chapter 21“A man and his cat.” One of the ladies in the dining room smiles as Sergio walked in with little Gato on his heals. He picked her up and cuddled her to his chest. And she sticks out a paw to touch his cheek. A daddy daughter moment as Sergio smiles in her face, slowly blinking his eyes. Cat communication, between them. Gato blinks back. “I just love a man who adores cats.” The ladies colleague agrees as she also walks over to stroke Gato’s head.Leah can not agree more, even though she says nothing. In South-Africa her dad’s mother always had one or more cat at a time as pets. And when an new one needed a home for a stray, Oumie always made room for an extra one. In her house and in her heart. At least that is something she and Sergio shares. A love for cats, wild or domesticated.“Did you enjoy your lion sighting?” John brings in a tray with Sherry glasses on it.“Oh yes indeed. Good to see that predators are now moving in to do their part in the balancing of the food ch

    Chapter 20After the first day on the site the builders already got the water, shower and toilet as well as one of the gas geysers working in the apartment where they are residing until the job is done. They don’t mind sharing the space. Haya is the plumber and electrician. He is also a trained gas technician. Gio and three of the others are builders. And then there is a cabinet maker. He can do magic with wood. Even use rough pallets and make the most beautiful stuff from it. What’s more, they work hard and at a reasonable pace. Nobody’s got to watch over their shoulders.Thank heavens, for Leah’s has a lot to do herself.She started to sort out her room here in the house and the girls helping in the kitchen now have four black bags full of clothes to go and share with the others back at their little village.Clothes that dated back to Leah’s childhood days. Stuff that just accumulated over the years. What is going to be left in the bedroom is her nice relatively new double bed. One

    Chapter 20The dinner was great. The food exquisite and the ambience exactly what Hurter’s Retreat can offer to visitors. A beautiful African night, with all the nocturnal sounds to make it complete. Especially when the huge male lion roared right next to the fence separates the houses and buildings of Hurter's Retreat from the rest of the bush and wildlife.“King is getting ever closer. His territory is now even bigger than the size of that of the lions of the Kruger National Park," explains Sergio. “But he is sure to move back again once there are other lions released as well. Or even if a pride might come through from the Limpopo Park. But that can only happen when we are sure that there are enough prey animals in the area."For Leah, it was fantastic to listen to everything Sergio's bosses were planning for the next few years. They are part of the largest wildlife relocation programs ever.Leah was really just a flower pot on the wall at last night’s occasion. One of the waiters wh

  • In love... with her own African beast   Leah knows what she wants...

    Chapter 19What a relief to see that Ralph's plane is still not back at Hurter's Retreat when Leah and Sergio arrive back on Hurter’s Retreat. But it's only three o'clock in the afternoon now. Anything could probably happen before nightfall. In her rear mirror, she sees that Sergio first stops his Land Cruiser truck next to the large farmhouse's kitchen. Probably to deliver the groceries he brought from Bonsai.And to see if Maria prepared the three of the eight bedrooms of the house for his guests. He doesn't have to worry, Maria always does her best. Something he probably knows as well as she does, at this stage.Leah also wants to drop off the things in her car at the seven holiday flats. Then she will go and help in the kitchen. Her mother and father also usually spontaneously jumped in to help when important guests stayed here. Later she will wear a pair of black trousers, a white shirt and the red waistcoat and play waiter, like she always did.The atmosphere in the kitchen is p
