"I've been given a place to sleep near the warriors. Your mother has readied a pallet in your family's section."
I felt naked without Davi's comforting presence, but I knew I'd be fine through the night.
My mother and I were getting along well with hand gestures and motions.
It was difficult, but we were managing.
As I settled down on the pallet of animal hides and furs, my mother pointed to my boots.
She examined them when I handed them over and I could tell that she was interested in their usefulness.
Perhaps we could learn from each other.
The temperature had reached a high of 83 during the day, but with the night came a dip in temperatures and lower humidity.
I was thankful for the thick furs that lined my bed.
Shrugging out of my khaki pants, I laid them on my bag and started to crawl beneath my pile of covers.
"Yopi?"
I turned my head at the unfamiliar sound and saw my mother gesture toward my pants.
"Huh?" I questioned without even thinking about the language discrepancy.
She used her hand to fan her face and I understood she was asking if my pants were hot.
I debated on how to respond, but decided to just continue with our gestures and shook my hand from side to side.
She reached beside her pallet and brought out a pale yellow piece of hide.
When she motioned for me to stand, I kind of already knew what she was getting at.
She wrapped the fabric around my hips, tying it over my boxer briefs.
The fact that her breasts were hanging out was fading into the background already, which I was glad for.
The last thing I needed was to pop wood in front of my mom.
*Giggles* I would think so...
So you liked the names? Yeah...it was difficult figuring those out.
Tomorrow we split from reality and go into Kitkatality...which means I'll be giving you the link to the real article.
