Chapter 8 – SHE IS AN INNOCENT LOVELY LADY

Dexter has gain strength, and he walk around the place trying to familiar himself with it. Shayne is still busy with the deer, the two seems inseparable to each other, while the birds are still around them. If he has not talk to Shayne and seen her before, he will immediately presume that the woman is a fairy tending the animals in the forest. But he is now starting asking himself, that question, is she a fairy or or just an ordinary woman who has tame the wild animals around, because she just here on this place every day seeing, interacting and communicating with the them. She is actually one of them.

 One thing he is sure, Shayne is beautiful, very beautiful and kind. She did not doubt helping him, someone she does not know, suppose, he is an evil man, she will put herself in a terrible danger and she will be terribly sorry for helping him later. Shayne is a woman who have a heart for the needy. He adores her for that, more than her beauty, he has seen and meet several women before, women with gorgeous body, pair complexion, flaw less, women who can immediately arouse physical sexual attraction to any man but not adorable. Not respectful.  He is sure Shayne is not one of them. Shayne is an innocent lovely lady here in the forest. She does not even think a man like Dexter would become sexually attracted to her take advantage of the situation, she is alone, helpless and no match with the strength of a man. She would simply become a prey in the claw of a hungry predator looking for a victim. It is a forest and the law of the wilderness surely persist here, the strong overpowered the weak. Have she not heard some women being abused by some men because they become kind to them, and those men take advantage of the opportunity, like the opportunity he has by now.

He wants to walk more, but he feels he is getting tired, he is not yet strong, he has not fully regained his strength. He just rests where he is, remain standing for a while, otherwise sunlight in the morning is good for the body, he needed it, he was expose to terrible cold of the night two days ago, the reason why he got fever and passed out, thanks to Shayne, she saved his life. He owes a great gratitude to Shayne; he does not know how he can return it back to her. 

While standing in the middle of grassland, he moves his eyes to different direction. He found out the east is covered by full grown trees of different variety, the southern side, shrubs and flowering plants, the western side of the hut, is almost the same with the eastern side, a never-ending tree up to the horizon, but the northern side is different landscape, it has natural canal curve in the forest floor, the site suggest there may be a creek or small river that can be found there. Satisfied of what he has seen and have done, in that morning he walks slowly back to hut, he cannot far.

He meets Shayne carrying dress and some other things going north.

“Where are going” he asked her

“I will take a bath, there is a water fall over there” Shayne confirmed there a river in the north.

“Are you not afraid, I may follow you there”

“I trust you; I can sense you are a good man”

“I wondered how can you easily trusted me in a short period of time?”

“ I just sense you are a good man”

How can he break the trust this woman has given to him? She does not even have a little doubt he will take advantage on her. Trust always encourage honesty, to any man, where ever he is. It makes man possess lofty ideals, and fight his weaknesses beyond earthly desires. Dexter realized Shayne deserved to be respected for her undoubtful kindness.
