Chapter II – Preparations

“Don’t be silly, Lulita said you were to come with me. Come on,” said Luchy.

Manchego snorted. Sharing the house and the days with the love of his life was a dream come true, although there were times when he needed to be alone. He missed the days when he only had Teitú. Because of this, he sometimes flew away to clear his mind and feel the cool air on his face or went away to talk to his faithful companion about the details of the mission they would soon set out on.

“And where am I supposed to go?” he asked as he wiped the perspiration off his face after a day of work under a scorching sun.

“Oh, come on. Don’t be daft. I already told you I want you to come with me to buy the hen. Then you can have eggs for breakfast every day; it’s in your own interest. Or do I have to do everything? Do you think I’m your slave? And while we’re at it, yesterday, you didn’t even clear the table or do the dishes like you promised you would. Because of you, I ended up exhausted. You can clean up as well, can’t you, as well as saving worlds? You’ve no shame.” Luchy folded her arms and turned away.

Manchego sighed. They did not argue often, but it happened sometimes. Lulita had warned him that it was normal for a couple to argue about trivialities or even deeper matters at times. Maybe Luchy was already thinking of his imminent departure and the dangers it would involve; the possibility of his death. The poor girl must be terrified.

“I’m sorry. I just forgot,” was all the boy could say.

He wiped off the sweat and beat his wings to cool himself. Then, he put his arms around Luchy and kissed her cheek. She was still angry, silent. Her beautiful chestnut hair partly hid her face.

“I don’t want you to leave,” she said in a broken voice with her back to him, unable to look at him. “I want you to come with me every day and share the housework. I want to share everything with you. Forever. Don’t leave me again.”

“Luchy, I love you.”

“I say nice things and you just say you love me. Don’t you know any more words? Don’t you find it boring, saying the same thing over and over again?”

Manchego lowered his gaze. “I don’t know what else to say. I’m a farmer, plain and simple... and the God of Light. But I don’t know what else I can say. I was never good at talking.”

Having a girlfriend was turning out to be harder than saving the world from demons. He could fight against enemies, but in the field of love, he had no idea how to overcome so many obstacles. He sighed.

“Come on. I’d love to go with you and buy the new hen. And I want to say that... I’m happy to be with you.” He blushed.

“That’s more like it.
