chapter 7- A new house
When the plane has landed we get out and pack our bags. Max 'motor is placed on the side of the runway in a garage for larger items. With our suitcases in our hands we walk to the garage. A man is standing at the entrance. He has a beer belly and a big mustache. He wears a suit and a matching cap as clothing. "Your ID sir." He says.
Max looks at me desperately because he doesn't speak English very well. "What does he say?"
"He asks for your ID card." "Oh, okay," says Max. He takes his ID and gives it to the man, Harry, is on his name plate. Harry returns the ID. Max remains. "Go on, get your motorcycle." I take Max's arm and pull him into the garage. "He said you could get your bike."
We stop at a village to eat something. Max parks his motorbike between a few bicycles and hand in hand we enter the village. "Look." Max points to a sign with his free hand. "Welcome to Sleepy Valley" is written on it. "So this place is called Sleepy Valley?" Max nods. "Cool name." I say. "Indeed."
In Sleepy Valley there is a gigantic long main street with all kinds of small streets attached to it. On that main street are all clothing shops, cafes and more. In the smaller streets there are only houses. There is very little traffic.
I could get used to this.
Max and I enter the MacDonalds, which is about the middle of the street. The building is gigantic. There are more than 40 tables and there are 5 places where you can order. I order a MacChicken and Max a Quater Pounder.
We sit by the window and have a beautiful view of the shopping street.
I take the trash and throw it in the nearest trash can. "Are we going to stay here for a littlw while?" I look at him begging. "Pleeeease?" He sighs. "Okay then." I smile. "Shall we look around?"
We are almost at the end of the street when I hear a cat scream. I really love cats so I immediately run towards the sound. I end up in one of the smaller streets. A kitten is sitting against a large house. In front of him are four big cats that are getting closer. I run towards the sound. Because of the speed I run a bit further. I quickly stand in front of the kitten. The four big cats meow angrily at me but I dont move. I take the kitten and hold it to me. He trembles with shock and cold. I open my coat pocket and put the kitten in it. I leave the zipper open so that it can still breathe. My pockets are a little too deep for him to prevent him from climbing out and falling. "Kssssst! Go away!" The cats run away and I notice Max, who is looking at the house. "Max ....." He turns around. "What?" I look at the house. It's beautiful!
I stare at it. "Nice huh?" Max asks. I can only nod. This is my dream house! (See the picture)
I raise 2 fingers. "Two things. One, we're going to buy this house and second, I have a kitten and we're going to keep it."
"But ..." Protests Max. I look straight at him. "It was not a question." I smile meanly. "The kitten can stay here."
Does anyone have couple names?
