Victims of Nimbo (16 page)
Authors: Gilbert L. Morris
Jere glanced at Sarah and saw that she was watching. He said, “Nothing to it. I’ll teach you how.”
“It seems that we’re always solving problems and then leaving,” Josh said. He and Sarah were helping each other adjust their knapsacks. “Just great problem solvers. That’s us.”
“But Goél used the Sleepers to do so much good here,” Sarah said. “Both King Celevorn and Chief Maroni are agreed that things are going to be different. Any prisoners will be freed. And I suppose you noticed that the women sat right down with the men at our farewell banquet.”
“Next thing you know they’ll teach them to count money,” Josh said with a straight face.
“Josh, you’re truly impossible!” But she saw that he was smiling at her.
“Sarah, I want to tell you I was scared to death when you were in the hands of that monster Nomus.”
“He is a monster, isn’t he? What do you think will happen to him?”
“If there is any justice, he’ll take your place on that altar. But I think he’ll be taken care of. Maroni won’t let him get off scot-free.”
The two walked along slowly, and overhead a bird was singing. Josh glanced up at it. Then Sarah said, “Josh—”
“What?”
“I was wrong about the way I acted. I’m sorry.”
Josh turned to her. “Thanks for the apology, but I was as wrong as you were, so let’s forgive each other.”
“And never do it again!” she exclaimed, smiling.
“Well, I think we ought to have a fight at least once a month.”
“What!”
“Because it’s kind of fun to make up.” He reached over and gave her a squeeze. “There. And now I’ve got a little poem I’d like to read to you.” He brought a piece of paper out of his pocket.
“Josh Adams, Jere wrote that poem,” Sarah accused.
“He did not! He just gave me a few pointers. Now, here it is.”
Josh read the poem, and Sarah listened. It was a terrible poem. But when he finished, she threw her arms around his neck and said, “Oh, Josh, that’s the most beautiful poem I ever heard in my whole life!”
