Chapter 3:

"As I told you, it's too dangerous for you, Kate.", Jack said quiet.

Kate laid her head crooked.

"Well, and what about my payment?"

"Your payment?", he grinned nervously.

"Yes, what about a deal?"

"A deal?", Jack asked confused.

"Yes, you don't want me to to go alone in the unknown parts of the jungle and I don't want you to work so much, so...I'll help you and..."

"Oh, I understand!", Jack said. "You want me also to work with you, right?"

"You could help me on my "passion fruit hunt", I mean..."

She again came near to him and gave him a challenging look.

"If you don't want me to go hunting on my own, you should come with me, right?"

He grinned, now understanding what she was talking about.

"Well, it's also a hard work, but it would be a good change for you from fixing up people, right? The only thing you have to fix up there are maybe some cheeky passion fruits which fall out of your backpack and break their handles."

She grinned. He also grinned and nodded.

"Ok, that's a deal!"

"Ok!", Kate said then the both shook their hands while they kept on grinning.
In this position they stayed a few minutes, just grinning at each other and holding and shaking their hands.

"HEY, you two, is everything ok?"

The both turned their heads around finding Charlie standing behind them.

"Yes, everything is ok!", Jack said still grinning.

"Great! But then I want to take part in your game!", Charlie said also grinning.

"Our game?", Kate asked confused.

"Yes, your "hand shaking game", it seems to be much fun as strong as you two are grinning.", Charlie said.

Kate and Jack looked down to their hands and only now they realized that they were still shaking their hands.

"Oh!", the both said, then they let their hands go and both looked a bit embarrassed to the ground.

Now it was Charlie who couldn't stop grinning, while watching the both.

"You're hilarious, guys!", Charlie said.

"Well, see you later, boys, I have to organize something!", Kate said, then she turned around and walked back to the tents.

Halfway she turned once more her head around and smiled at Jack who couldn't stop looking at her.
Charlie stand near to Jack, he had fold his arms and he watched the both with a huge smile on his face.
