Love Barrels And Werewolves

Answers to Questions

A gray-haired wolf ran as fast as lightning through the bushes. Two ears fitted sharply, he felt receiving a call from the herd. But when not too far into the forest, an arrow hit his front foot.

He almost fell, but survived and chose to hide for a while. Unfortunately, a shot hit the wolf's back. Although the blood continued to flow, he limped away and saved himself.

Until, his consciousness suddenly dimmed like it was not a cloud-covered one.

While in the other part of the forest, two wolves can be seen looking at each other when they hear gunshots. Without waiting, the two hurriedly ran towards the source of the sound. Getting closer, a familiar scent smelled.

They howled in turn, hoping to soon find the herd shot. When there was no reply, the two ran back to follow instinct.

As the two wolves moved further away from the border, they saw a herd of wounded men covered in blood.

"Mir!" said the dark-ash-feathered wolf, Vicky. He almost rushed over and found the wounded wolf. But it has not been prevented before.

"See." Kevin saw a human approaching and covered the wound with tears flowing.

Kevin and Vicky looked at each other. But both of them just kept quiet and watched from behind the big tree.

Until the sunrise, and Laras managed to memapah Lion out of the thick forest.

The barrel placed Lion's body under the tree, while he went down to the river fetching water with the tied leaves. The woman came back soon. "Drink slowly" he said attentively.

The Lion who had regained consciousness soaked his pale lips with water given Laras. Just staying across the river actually they will arrive, but the woman who was almost awake all night almost lost all energy.

Luckily, after they finally got home. The barrel lays down the body of a weak man. Without thinking of a break, he immediately headed for the kitchen and refined some herbal ingredients. Afterwards came back out and greeted Lion who was half closed. The man sat down grimacingly enduring the pain in his back.

"hold. It's going to hurt a little bit" said Laras from behind Lion.

Slowly Baras opened the bandage, then began to change the medicine on the wound and back wrapped around the gauze properly. Finished with his back, he switched on Lion's right arm. "It must have hurt a lot" he said as he blew slowly on the wound.

But Lion was silent. He should have felt pain, but somehow this time he just felt happy to get such a wound. Rather than a shot in the back, the pounding in the chest felt more agonizing.

After a while the barrel was finally finished. He smiled with relief, as if the fatigue of last night had just disappeared with the safety of Lion.

"Wait a minute. I'll make breakfast." The woman got up. But had not been able to move, his hand was grabbed by the man who was still sitting on the bed.

Laras turned his head, looking at Lion looking at him very deeply. Suddenly Laras's hand was pulled, his body being grabbed by the man who was now drowning the face between his arms.

"Just a second. I want to be like this" Lion said. As for Laras, he could only hold his breath as best he could. For the first time, this woman did not understand why her heart was pounding so much.

As the clock ticks around one round, Lion breaks into a hug. He looked at Laras who looked wrong. "You must be tired. Can't you just shut up?  I can hold my hunger for up to three days" said the man.

Laras who initially felt noticed now even feel annoyed because of the last Lion sentence. He threw the man's hand hard. "But I'll starve to death if I don't eat now!" Then hurried away without caring for Lion's whimper.

A day has passed since then.

The path that has been several days not passed still looks the same when Laras passed it this morning. With the flower basket already full, he walked lightly. Of course, because Lion is still injured and needs a lot of rest at home.

Already memorized by the way, Laras managed to reach the market in a short time. He entered the flower shop and intended to greet Kinan immediately. But it seems that his friend is talking.

As he approached Laras smiled. "What are you guys talking about? It sounds very exciting" he said.

"Have you heard? Ren almost caught a big wolf last night" Kinan said excitedly. While Ren directly patted the chest that puffed too proud.

"Dearly enough. I think I shot the wolf in the back. If only the bullet hadn't run out, I would have caught it and brought it home" Ren explained without being asked.

In contrast to Kinan who seemed enthusiastic, Laras only felt annoyed half to death. Of course, now the question of who shot Lion was answered directly by the perpetrator without the need for him to find out.

But despite his anger, Laras chose silence. While the hunter proudly continues to tell the story and intends to trap many wolves to be hunted. Hearing him Laras was still trying to catch his breath from exploding. But his patience is on the threshold.

She slammed the flower basket a little hard, calling attention from Ren to stop babbling. After that, Laras looked. "Not that you guys used to hunt deer, why now you want to catch a wolf?" ask him to be made as calm as possible.

"The price offered for one wolf is equal to five deer. If I could make more money with just one animal, why not?"

Laras' hands clenched strongly. He was very nervous to hear Ren's reason. It may be true, people say, that many of the Humans are more terrible than the wolves.

The barrel takes a deep breath. He really wanted to curse, but was prevented because there were many people in the flower shop.

"More. Stop hunting animals in that way" Laras said.

But Ren who did not understand just asked what the problem was. Until when Laras could barely contain his anger, the hunter decided to leave.

Conscious of his best friend's anger, Kinan approached Laras, patting the woman's back slowly.

"Hunters are like those who continue to damage natural ecosystems" Laras said with breaths rising and falling.

"I understand." Kinan nodded. He continued, "But shouldn't you also be careful? Your house is close to the woods, and reportedly wolves have been showing up a lot lately."

After Laras' anger subsided, he calmed Kinan down so as not to worry. Then continue to trade flowers as usual.

The heart that originally felt good when leaving is now destroyed even when Laras almost reached home. He kept on remembering Ren's stupid pride. Unaware he arrived at the house with the door open.

Laras rushed in and rounded his eyes as soon as he saw Win standing in the doorway with a sharp gaze towards Lion.

"Win! What are you doing here?" Hearing Laras' voice, Win immediately turned his head. "What did you do to him?" ask the woman again.

Forehead Win shriveled. "none. I just wanted to stop by to eat and see the wound on his arm."

Hearing that, Laras took a deep breath to calm down. "You think my house is where you eat?" he said, but did not mind as long as Win believed. "Lion was hurt while helping me in the garden."

When Laras convinces Win a makeshift lunch is in session. They eat with greed. The barrel occasionally makes jokes. But when one of Win and Lion retaliated, the tension between the two men was evident.

Until Laras remembered one thing. "Wins. Have you ever caught a wolf?"

Quietly Win nodded. "I almost caught him last night. Too bad the wolf got away when I was sure he had shot his leg."

The rice inside Lion's mouth almost entered and made him choke. He and Laras stared at each other. The information again came without being found out.
