The Viet Minh mourned their losses. The two soldiers that died during the mission were heroes and would be remembered by their families every year with a visit to their gravesites.

Spitting Woman was given a day to rest, then sent out on long-range reconnaissance for several days at a time. Granier saw little of her and worried when she was gone. He knew it was stupid. She could take care of herself. That’s one of the reasons he loved her. She didn’t need him. She wanted him. That made him feel good. He wanted her too. He was excited each time she returned. He waited for her by the edge of the forest like a dog waits for its master.

When she arrived, he picked her up and made her kiss him before letting her down. She didn’t like it. She had just spent several days in the bush and wanted to clean herself in the river first. She liked to smell good for him even though he didn’t seem to care. She relented, kissed him, and he set her down. She motioned for him to go away. He obeyed.

Just seeing that she was okay made Granier feel better. He had work to do and knew he would see her later that night in the forest where they could have some privacy. Spitting Woman never seemed too concerned about privacy or even the appropriateness of their relationship. Granier didn’t feel any pressure like she wanted more. It was what it was, and it would last as long as it lasted. Just being with each other was enough.

When he looked back on his previous relationships – there were very few – the women always wanted to know where it was all going after only a few times of seeing each other. How the hell did he know? The relationships usually ended when he was deployed to some far off place and told them that he wouldn’t be able to communicate for several weeks or months. They never believed him and ended things in a fight. It was more convenient that way.

With Spitting Woman it was different. They didn’t talk, so there was no real way of knowing what was on her mind or even if this was a relationship. He had no choice and neither did she. They just had to go with it. Surprisingly, it worked.

He walked back to the area where the Americans were camped below the cliffs on a rise above the river. The Team’s camp was surrounded by large rocks that could be used for cover in the event of an attack. They had set up a camouflaged lean-to that hid their position from passing planes and shielded them from the rain. It also allowed them to have a small fire to heat their coffee and roast fish caught by villagers in the river and exchanged for American cigarettes.

Giap was talking with Dewey when Granier entered the camp. “Colonel Patti has requested that you attack the Japanese garrison at Tan Trao,” said Dewey.
