However, John didn’t think much of her reaction while he said, “Your stomach must be acting up
because you have been overexerting yourself. I’ll go buy you some medicine later on. You’ll feel better
after taking them.”
Waving him down, Sophia told him, “You don’t have to. I’m not going to take them.”
With a sigh, John tried to persuade her otherwise. “That nausea will persist if you don’t take the
medicine. You have been suffering from it for years, and you know how excruciating it can be, so you
should take the meds.”
Without a word, Sophia rinsed her mouth with some water in the kitchen before telling John, “You
should eat up while I take a short rest.” Her nausea faded as soon as it came, so she was feeling better
after a few moments, after which she returned to the house. There was no dining room in her house,
except for a table in the kitchen. She walked up to the table while instructing, “I can’t stand the smell of
pickled cucumbers, so take them away.”
With a grunt of assent, John left the pickled cucumbers on the shelf by the door. Sophia felt better after
taking a deep breath, so she went over to the table to start eating her bowl of noodles. After they were
both done eating, John washed the dishes before leaving the house once again, as he wasn’t
accustomed to doing nothing. He probably went out to meet the other villagers, Sophia thought. The
meal left Sophia feeling drowsy, so she took a nap in her room since she could leave everything to
John now that he was here with her.
In the meantime, John was strolling in the village while examining it. He realized it was an
underdeveloped area with not even a hundred families, and all the houses looked the same. Now that
everybody had had their meal, there were some who came out to chat with each other in front of their
houses. Sure enough, their topics revolved around John and Sophia.
Due to the fact that they hailed from a poor village, when they noticed that John was dressed nicely
and drove a car, they surmised that John was in fact a wealthy man. He even promised to donate some
money so that the villagers could pave their roads. Therefore, the villagers began exclaiming, “Sophia
is in luck to have found herself such a rich husband despite hailing from a village in the mountains. It
must be because of her grandfather’s blessings!”
When John passed them by, they quickly greeted him before asking if he had had his meal. With a
smile on his face, John approached them. “I already had my meal, sir. By the way, I’d like to pay my
respects to Sophia’s grandfather. Do you know where he is buried? I don’t want to wake Sophia up as
she is asleep.”
The villagers looked at him while replying, “You sure are a nice young lad.”
Almost all of the villagers knew where Sophia’s grandfather was buried, as she was at a loss as to what
to do when he passed away. Hence, it was up to them to help her with the proceedings of the funeral;
even the grave was dug by the men in the village. Therefore, one of the old men told John, “I know
where it is, but you’ll have to prepare some offerings if you want to pay your respects. It’s impolite to go
empty-handed. In the meantime, I will find someone to show you the way, as well as keep you
company.”
Upon hearing what the old man said, John thanked him while retrieving a packet of cigarettes to be
handed out to everyone. Never had they ever laid eyes on such quality cigarettes, so they examined it
curiously.
The guide that the old man found for John was none other than Buddy, who had an attitude about him
while in Sophia’s house. However, despite his brash demeanor, he was a kind-hearted man. When
Sophia’s grandfather passed away, he provided much needed help, going as far as to help dig the
grave. Buddy took John to where the latter could buy some flowers before both of them went uphill.
As they were both young, they managed to travel a lot faster. While on their way, John asked about
Sophia’s life while living with her grandfather in the village. Buddy heaved a sigh before replying,
“Sophia led such a harsh life. When she was young, both her parents ran away, which left her alone in
her grandfather’s care. As she came from a poor family, she was forced to help out with chores ever
since a young age, so she learned early on how to handle all of them. During the harvest seasons, she
also had to help with harvesting. It was a pity that she had to go through all that during such a young
age.”
