I was told by Newt that today I would be working as a builder. Today was the day that the supplies came up in the box. I was ready for a day to think about what Gally did this morning until I realized, Gally is a builder. I can't believe I didn't remember that!
I didn't see Gally for the first part of the day. He finally showed up around lunchtime. The box came up stocked full. I was instructed by the boys to move the crates away from the box so they could quickly get out the supplies. Gally hadn't said a word to me since this morning.
They all got the boxes out quickly and the remaining builders scattered to leave Gally all alone to put the supplies away.
"Do you always have to do this by yourself?" I asked astonished
"What do you mean?" He asked out of breath. His muscles strained from picking up the latest box.
"Do they always leave you here alone to put away the supplies?"
"Well yeah, that's how it's always been." He snapped.
"Dang" I mumbled. I lifted up a box with a grunt to help Gally carry them to the homestead.
"I don't think you should be doing this." He mumbled under his breath.
"What?" I asked, not hearing what he said.
"I don't think you should be doing this." He said a little louder. He let the box that he held in his hands drop to the ground with a loud thud. He stood and I could see his gears turning. He was towering over me with his broad shoulders.
"What? What are you talking about?" Gally began to stop off to the homestead. "Gally talk to me!"
"Your a girl, you shouldn't have to be a builder!" He said infuriated, still stomping his way to the homestead.
"What are you doing?"
"Going to talk to Newt" We had made it to the entrance of the homestead when he caught me off guard and turned around to look into my eyes.
"You stay right here" He growled and pointed next to the door telling me not to follow. And with that he disappeared into the rickety house.
