and reaches for the knife with the other.
“I’m so sorry, brother,” Jacques cuts his throat from jugular to jugular. His body collapses to the floor, limp, with blood spaying everywhere. Jacques lies in a pool of blood gasping for air as he chokes. James stands over his brother’s body looking down at him as his soul slips away. His eyes become still and hollow.
Standing in horror and disbelief, James is disconnected from what just happen.
He glances down at the baby lying in his arms, “Dimitri, don’t you worry about a thing, little one. I’m going to get us a better life and a better house to live in. I'm going to take good… no… great care of you.”
James picks up everything that he can carry. He takes it outside along with the baby, sets everything on the ground a safe distance away from the shack, picks up a bunch of sticks and brush lying around the outer perimeter, and spreads it all inside of the cabin. James kicks over a lantern as he leaves and walks to get his son. James picks him up and their things off the ground then walks off into the woods towards a better life.
Unknown to the humans, Archangel Elijah looks on and thinks to herself, ‘Maybe, maybe this is the one that God was talking about.’
Chapter 27
David, Markus, and Wendi are out shopping with their stepparents at the local shops in town. The men decide to split up from the women and go their separate ways to see if they can do something exciting. Zebedeo tells Marnina that they will not be terribly far away from them and not to worry.
Marnina replies, “Now you boys don't go getting into any trouble because then I will not know you.”
Zebedeo smiles and leaves to go looking around with David and Markus. Wendi glances up at Marnina to find out where she would like to go next. Marnina winks back at Wendi and points in the opposite direction of the men.
“Let’s go that way and see if we can get into some trouble of our own.”
“Dimitri, where are you going today?” Mr. Quinn asks as he helps Mr. Johnston, his head cook, in the kitchen prepare today's lunch for all of the children at the orphanage.
“I thought that I would explore the town. You know, get to know the place a little bit more. Might find a favorite place to hang out at,” Dimitri replies as he picks up an apple to munch on before hitting the road. “You know, I overheard a couple of the other kids talking about a little shop that I might go check out.”
“Okay, just don't be to long. Lunch is almost done. This is going to be a very special lunch because we will be welcoming a new kid to the family,” Mr. Quinn chops up a couple more carrots and puts them into the stew pot.
Dimitri nods as he takes a couple of bites of this apple and then says with a full mouth, “Okay, see you soon.”
Dimitri walks to the back door that lets out to the alleyway to take a small shortcut to the little shop that he wants to check out. He comes across a couple of street vendors on the way there selling food to local town people at a discounted price. One of them has his favorite food; grilled apples. He share this with his father when they walked around his old town together laughing and telling jokes. He wipes away a small tear running down his cheek and then puts on a smile so that no one will see him cry. Dimitri arrives outside of a local shop that specializes in handmade clothes.
David, Markus, and Zebedeo are checking out a local shop where the owner makes everything from scratch. Zebedeo checks out some specially dyed dresses for Marnina, hoping that he can surprise her for her birthday. Markus and David are acting like they are shopping but are ogling at the girls that are shopping. Markus winks at one of them and she waves back. David whispers hello to her dark haired friend standing next to her, making her blush back at him. Zebedeo glances over at the boys to check on them and notices what they are looking at.
