It has been just 2 hours after the presentation and Rain started to think how he can shut up Jack's mouth. He was explaining something about a vocals and it was so boring that Rain fell sleep like seven times, even that they were in the old chicken coop, who had an a extremely bad smell due to the feces.
-Wake up you little jerk.- Screamed Jack in Rain's ears.
-Yeah, sure.- Replied Rain, with all the sleep over him.
-All right.- Said Jack with less anger.- So, which vocal is this one?.- Pointing to an "A"
-Ehm...- Answered Rain, thinking.
-¡No!.- Yelled the dog.- That's not an "E", that's an "A" you insolent fool.-Said Jack, slapping Rain's face.
-It's not my fault than you have that obsession of perfection.-Relied Rain, crossing his arms.
-¡But it's needed because you have to talk, read and write in Spanish, like everyone else!- Declared Jack, getting closer to Rain.
Rain did a deep sigh, while Jack put his little paw in his new friend and student.
-Listen, if you learn how to speak in Spanish, the connection to the others member will be easier and you wouldn't need me to translate something. Everyone here knows how to talk, read and write in Spanish, not because they are from here. It's because they learned. It was difficult, but they did it, they all did it. You can't be different in that way. -Said Jack, forcing a little smile that looks like he had evacuating troubles.- Besides, soon we will use music to relax so don't be such a moron.
Jack turned back and started to walk to the board. The room wasn't so big so he took a little time. Suddenly, the door of the room opened and Betsy appeared running the fastest he could.
-Es míooooooooooo.- Screamed Betsy, picking up Rain again and running to the horizon.
-¡Tía Betsy, se te tiene prohibido raptar gente!- Yelled Jack, running over her.
After that little persecution that over with three broken bones of Betsy and a dizzy Rain, the last one's comeback to the class with Jack, who was exhausted.
Seven hours later, over the sunset, the two friends came out of the room, with triumphal breath and an exaggerated ecstasy from part of Jack.
-¡I did it!- Screamed Jack, with all his lung.- I civilized this beast and make him a life example.
-No te felicitar tanto, también yo ayudar.- Reclame Rain.
-No te molestes en hablar, ya que tu español sigue apestando.- Replied the dog.
-If you putted more emphasis, I could speak perfectly.- Said Rain
-With a bloody fist and I with a purple eye.- Answered Jack, directing his way to the dining room, followed by Rain.
Before enter the house, a little dog put him in front of them. It was thin and with small ears, with black and brown fur and flattened mouth. He looks very much to Imelda, like if was her son, but it was improbably because she looks like… well, like a male. The dog makes a funny reverence and then, directing to Jack, with all his energy, he said:
-¡What's up men!
-Tulio, mano, ¿dónde te habías metido?.- Asked Jack
-En la cancha, rompiéndome las patas, garras, huesos y cualquier otra cosa que se te ocurra.- Declared the dog.
-Tu madre te la pone dura.- Replied Jack, with a little laugh.
-Y tu padre también.- Said Tulio, smiling.
Then his nose started to smell, turning around the two friends, stopping in front of them.
-¡Dios, que peste, es como si uno de ustedes se hubo revolcado en mierda de chanchos!- Declared the dog, with nasty expression.-¿Cómo no lo huelen?
-Es él, pero yo me acostumbre al olor.- Pointed Jack.
-Si, como no.- Replied Tulio.- Espera, ese no es el extranjero
-El que viste y calza.- Declared Jack
-Encantado de conocerte.- Said Rain, extending his hand.
-Ni en tus sueños.- Said Tulio, aparting Rain's hand.- Pero, hey, habla en español.- Directing to Jack.
-Digamos que lo ayude un poco.- Declared Jack with arrogance.
-Aguantaste una clase completa.- Said Tulio, amazed.- Guau, eres increíble. Yo no alcancé ni los treinta minutos y ya quería suicidarme.
-¡Callate!.- Screamed Jack, hitting Tulio's face so hard that make him fly away.- Let's go eat.
The two animals enter to the dining room. It was a wood hovel, with many holes on the walls and ceiling. It doesn't have floor, just naked soil. The dishes were organized in 5 groups, with 2 rows each one with 10 dishes. Many of the dogs were there, eating their snacks and drinking water, talking about the hunting, future and the weird accent of the other's families. Once the two friends enter to the room, most of the dogs puke their food and started to make heaves.
-¡Dios, quién se lo hecho!- Yelled one of them
-Es como si estuviera echo de mierda.- Pointed another.
-Es él.- Said Jack, pointing to Rain as a very good friend he was.
After the massive throw out, all the dogs started to clean using leafs of the ground.
-Increíble, no había visto eso desde que Chop se comió sus heces.- Said Jack, jumping back because all the dogs started to puke again.
10 minutes later the room it was clean, and all the dishes were empty, so most of the dogs stayed to talk. Suddenly, a small dog came to the dining room running and said:
-¡Ahí viene Débora!.- Screamed.
For one moment to another, all de dogs sit on the ground, shake their tails and put an "angelical" face, which in most of the cases, it was a little bit creepy.
-¿Why are all doing that?-Asked Rain
-Because if Deborah choose you, she will take you to the heaven.- Answered Jack, putting in position.
Five minutes later, all the dogs were in the dining room and the door of it opened. In the ceiling of the door, a tall figure appeared, a human girl. It was blonde with blue eyes and white skin. She looks to had like 12 years old, but his smile was like the one of a kid. She looks like a fallen angel.
-Muy bien, ¿a quién de ustedes me llevaré hoy?-Said Débora, walking around the room.
Suddenly she stopped, in front of Rain.
-Dios, quién huele tan mal.-
She started to look around and saw the little dog in front of her. She picks him up and put him between her arms.
-Así que tú eres el nuevo… Y al parecer también el apestoso.-Said the girl.- Vamos, que hoy te daré un buen baño.
She gets out of the dining room with Rain in her arms, and led his steps to the main house. Before enter to the house, Jack approaches and yells at Rain:
-Don't worry. Besides, she gave the name to this family.
-Name to this family? - Thought Rain.
Once they enter to the residence, a loud noise came from the living room: it was the TV.
-¡Que noticia más estúpida!- Said someone in the room.
The girl went there, jumping all the way because of the disaster of the house.
-Papá, no grites tan fuerte. Casi te oigo desde afuera.- Shouted Débora
-Pero mira la noticia huevona.- Said the father .- ¿A quién le importa que hayan rescatado un león de una caja en el mar?, ¿a quién? Esto es puro relleno.
When Rain heard the word "Lion", immediately turn his face to the screen. It was a lion cub, with a fish head on his paws. It was a little pigheaded, with yellow fur and blue eyes. He looks cute, thought Rain. He looks cute and tasty. Tasty. Why tasty? Why he felt hungry, even that he already eaten? Why he want to pick him up and bite his head? That was not right. Hungry. Again hungry. He felt dizzy. He wanted to go away, but he couldn't.
-Mejor nos vamos antes de que comience su psicosis con la obediencia.- Said Débora, walking back.
Once she reached the hallway, turns to right and went to her room. During this time something (apart of the hungry) catches Rain attention: a young yellow cat with black spots on his fur, looking at him with shifty eyes. It moved with silence, right next of Débora. When the three enter to the room, the girl went out a little bit saying that "she had to bring up the shampoo". The door closed up and Rain with the cat where now alone in the room.
-Así que tú eres el nuevo, ¿no?.- Said the cat with female voice, revealing that it was "she".
Rain didn't say anything. The hunger persisted and she looked exquisite. To avoid something awkward, he just moved his head up to down in signal of affirmation.
-Por lo que sé, eres del país vecino, y el hecho de que puedas entender lo que te digo es que ese bobalicón de Jack te enseño el idioma.- Declared the cat.- Nunca ha sido bueno enseñando, por lo que se puede inferir que tú eres bastante inteligente, o quizás lo suficientemente estúpido para no haber procesado tu idioma nativo antes de venir.
-Hey.- Said Rain, getting closer to the cat.- That's not true.
-Y me alegro de haberme equivocado. Como sea, te doy la bienvenida a la familia de los lobos. Soy Hera, la vigilante de esta casa. Estás ahora en la habitación de los sueños, como le llaman esos mamones a este lugar. Te dejaré solo para que explores el recinto con libertad.
After saying this, Hera jumped on the window and with elegance, she fell back.
Rain went there, but he couldn't reach the window. Then, he looked the room: blue walls with flowers stamps, white ceiling and many posters of wolves. There were also a bed and a bedside table with a lamp and many papers on it.
Minutes later, when Rain finished checking all the room with his bathroom, Débora entered in the room with a bottle in her hands and a huge smile.
-No encontré otro, así que parece que a ti jovencito te va a tocar un rico baño de espumas.
Then she picked up Rain again and went to the bathroom. There, she cleaned all the mud that covered his fur, and returned it to the original colors. Then, she used the dryer on him and putted him a little bit of perfume.
The 30 minutes that followed, where the most pleasurable in Rain's life. Débora played with him, caressed him and kissed him on the forehead. And after all those stuffs, she lay on the bed and put him over her chest.
-Ahora pareces un lobito, lo sabías.
Rain affirmed with his head. Then, the father entered to the room, and the first thing that he saw was the wolf above Débora.
-Cariño, ¿quién es ese que está encima de ti?- Asked the father.
-Es Pooshie, el nuevo.- Answered Débora
-Pooshie?- Thought Rain, surprised.
-Creo que deberías dejarlo con los otros perros por hoy.- Sugested the dad.
-Pero quiero que se quede conmigo.
-Sí, pero debe acostumbrarse a estar con los otros perros, sobretodo porque mañana es día de caza.
-¿Y eso que tiene que ver?
-Que me los llevaré a todos conmigo, para inculcarles los hábitos.
-Pero es muy chico aún.
-Pero es un pastor alemán, y esos aprenden rápido.
The silence was law for a minute, until Débora said:
-Solo por esta noche, por favor.
The father made a deep sight, went to the door, opened it, and before leaving, he said:
-Solo por esta noche.- Before closing the door.
The room was all dark right now, and soon Débora fell asleep. Rain stayed there, looking at the girl, but thinking in one thing: the father of Débora had a gun on his pocket.
-Hunting. - Said, before get sleep.
