'Kevin! Kevin! Kevin!'

'Oha, oha,' the cursed monkeys chattered.

I fled back to my alcove. I was choked with tears.

Don't cry. Don't break now. Be a man of action, I coaxed myself.

It was already dark. I replaced the bandanna over my face. I couldn't sleep, couldn't get the frightening thoughts out of my mind.

Karl, why didn't I listen to you? Marcus, why was I so cruel to you? Now I'm being punished.

I told myself that when morning came, I would find Kevin, and together we would make it out of this. When I found myself feeling hopeless, I whispered my mantra, 'Man of action, man of action.' I don't know where I had gotten the phrase. Perhaps I had picked it up from one of Carlos Castaneda's books. I repeated it over and over: a man of action does whatever he must, isn't afraid, and doesn't worry. But when I heard the rustle of branches outside, my motto wasn't all that encouraging. I held my breath and waited for the rustling to recede into the jungle.
