This was not new in the life of Jonathan, and Evelyn knew this but she
couldn't stop worrying about her brother.
"Jonathan, how did this happen?" asked Evelyn eyeing his bruises.
" bu wa i arh" said a drunken John
" he's too drunk to know what you're asking, all we should do is let him
rest," said Rick.
"Jonathan, let me get you some ice for your bruises," said Evelyn putting a
hand tenderly on Jonathan's shoulder.
They helped Jonathan care for his bruises and laid him in the bed for
him to rest.
" Nice honeymoon, I'm sorry for this," said Evelyn looking down at he hands.
He just has a habit of getting into trouble.
" Reminds me of someone I know. Don't worry about it. I'm sure that was just
his way of getting rid of the stress of the past few days. Let's just get
some rest and tomorrow, everything will be better," said Rick giving her an
assuring smile.
As the next day came by they rushed their way to the port for the boat. The
lack of rest had caused them to almost miss the boat. They did manage to
make it on time. Jonathan woke up with one of the worst hangovers ever,
which led him to a bad temper. As soon as they embarked on their journey,
Jonathan made his way to bed. As for Rick and Evy, they were still worried
about Jonathan, but now became engaged on a conversation as to now they
would let john know of their marriage. Jonathan was a cool guy, but how
would he handle the elopement of his sister and O'Connell.
" I think we should wait to tell him, until we're settled back at the fort.
His temper will last all day, especially because of the brawl," said Evy.
" Whatever you say, M'am," said Rick with a huge grin.
"M'am? Where is that coming from, Mr. O'Connell? Evy smiled flirtingly at
him.
"Oh, I see we're back to calling me Mr. O'Connell, Mrs. O'Connell."
"I love the way that sounds. Mrs. O'Connell," now Evy is the one with the
huge grin on her face.
"You do, don't ya"
He grabbed her into an embrace, which led to a kiss. They made their way to
her cabin, without even looking which way they were going and without caring
who saw them. Rick carried Evelyn into the room and placed her on the bed
while never parting from her lips. Slowly and passionately they consummated
their marriage, not just once but twice. Morning soon arose and the light that made its way into their room awoke Rick and Evelyn. Rick
kissed Evy on the lips and with that both shared a good morning. A
long time passed before they could make their way to breakfast. Evy went to
go get Jonathan while Rick waited for them in the eatery. Jonathan was still
moody, but that soon changed when Evy reminded him of the gold. He hurried
to breakfast and began to question Evy about his portion of the treasure.
"Oh, Jonathan is that all you think about. I mean its a beautiful day and
all you can think about is money," even though Jonathan's ambition bothered
her it still did not manage to take away her happiness.
"What side of the bed did you wake up on? And why can't you stop grinning?
You're starting to act too muck like O'Connell, grinning all the time,"
noticing the radiance in his sister's features Jonathan begins to smile.
"Can't a girl just be happy that she's alive, possibly rich and in love,"
"Oh, no don't bring love in. Its too early for that lovey stuff."
As they arrived to the eatery Evy greeted Rick with a kiss. There too
Jonathan noticed the Evy's grin on Rick.
"Oh, no, not you too," said Jonathan beginning to get frustrated with all
these smiles too early in the morning.
"Me too, what? What?" asked Rick amused at seeing Jonathan's frustration.
"Nothing, Jonathan's just a bit bugged that's all. He is always like that
after he drinks alot," said Evy trying to explain for her brother.
"Come on Jonathan lighten up, remember the goody bag," with the mention of
this Jonathan behaviour began to change.
"Now, you're talking"
Breakfast was continued in the same manner and so was the rest of the day.
Back at the fort things became a bit uncomfortable with Jonathan being
ignorant to Rick and Evy's situation.
"Look who I found outside," said Jonathan merrily.
"Uncle Ali, What are you doing here?" Evy greeted her uncle with a hug and
a kiss.
"That's what I asked, but he said he would only answer when both of us were
together. Now uncle, is it something serious? asked John
" No, nothing's wrong. I just came to invite you to my daughter Zorride's
wedding. We haven't had you at the village since you came back to Egypt, and
that was 2 years ago." said Ali.
" Sorry, uncle Ali, its just that we have been kind of busy. Zorride is
getting married?" asked Evy.
"Too busy to visit family, nonsense. Now pack up your bags. I want us to get
to Amarna by midnight, and yes Zorride is getting married to a very proper
young man. You will meet him at the village, let us go, yallah."
" But uncle Ali, we can't just go off like that. We have things to do," said
Evy trying to make an excuse in order to get a couple of hours from her
uncle because she knew how impatient he was and how he always had to have as
he wanted and when he wanted.
"Yes, she is right," agreed Jonathan.
"From what has been happening in this city, I say, all you two need is to
get away from here. The city is practically destroyed and you want to stay
here. Now, I will not take no for an answer. If I have to drag you two out of
here as if you were children, I will not hesitate to do so," said Ali very
firmly.
Both siblings began to laugh at the thought of their uncle treating them
like children. Just as this was unfolding Rick walked in.
"Hon, I just..."
He was stopped short by the sight of the stranger in the room. Evy gave
Rick a look as if telling him to keep away from her in the presence of the
stranger, which Rick found very intriguing.
"Uncle Ali this is a friend of ours his name is Rick O'Connell. Rick, this
is our uncle Ali," Jonathan made the introductions between his uncle and
Rick.
"Its nice to meet you, sir" said Rick while extending his hand to Ali.
"Its nice you too. So how is it that you know my niece and nephew?" asked
Ali while he and Rick shook hands.
"That's kind of a long story. You could say that it was a mutual interest
that created this friendship," as Rick said this he gave a sly look at the
siblings.
They all sat down and enjoyed a snack with tea. Ali informed Rick of is
intent of taking his niece and nephew to the country for the weekend. He
also wanted Rick to help him convince them to go and in doing so he invited
Rick along. They all finally agreed to go and soon after were getting ready
to embark on the journey. Evy was left alone while Ali and Jonathan went to
buy some needed things. Rick had gone to his place to pick up a couple of
things but returned soon after.
"Evy, are you sure this is going to be ok. I mean with your family and us. How
do you think they will handle our marriage? We haven't even told Jonathan,
yet," Rick said this a little worried of the consequences of their actions.
"They are kind of special, especially my uncle who is a deep believer in the
Muslim faith. He is very narrow - minded and believes that everything should
be done the old generations had done. He hated my father for being Egyptian,
but he realized that mum loved him, so he learned to accept him, though they
hardly spoke. I am sure that he'll love you, but we should be careful
around him just until we tell them the news. Jonathan and I had not seen him
for a while so I don't know how his reaction to us will be which is why I
think that we should wait before we tell him about us. We should also wait
to tell Jonathan until we could tell them both together cause you know how
Jonathan gets when he drinks and with my cousin's wedding he will probably
be doing that a lot this weekend."
"What if he ends up not liking me?" asked Rick still concerned.
"He has no say in my life, so if he doesn't like you then that means that he
doesn't like me either. But I am sure that when to understand how important you are to
me, he'll accept you. He'll love you. He has to. Who wouldn't" answered Evy
with a reassuring smile on her face.
"How come that doesn't make me feel better? But as long as I have you I'll be
happy."
They soon begin to kiss and forget all about the uncle, when they hear Ali
and Jonathan's laughter. Evy and Rick soon separate from one another and
try to straighten each other out before uncle Ali can see them.
"What's so funny?" asked Evy ingenuingly.
"Uncle Ali just told me the funniest joke about a belly..." Jonathan is soon
stopped by his uncle who thinks that those sort of jokes should only be
carried out in the company of men. Evy does not think too much about it
because she knows how different her uncle's mentality is from her own or
even her brother's.
"I think we should be on our way, or else we will not make it there until
midnight," said Ali taking action in the departure.
