We checked the position of the North Star every night and selected a course toward a major landmark the next morning. Days drifted into weeks, and wee...s into a month—then two months and more. Still we marched. I don’t know how many linear miles we trekked. It was impossible to know because we were forever having to walk around a sheer rock face we couldn’t scale, or take a route around a mountain slope we couldn’t descend safely, or find a ford over a river we couldn’t wade—it was always. They both sat down and Spike dictated the routine he wanted followed toget their maintenance and rounds routine back on track. Micheleinterjected here and there when she thought she had a better idea. Shetyped away on a Gestetner stencil fed into the typewriter. She put thefinished orders onto the drum of the Gestetner copier and cranked thehandle producing ten copies of Daily Orders; one each for the recruits,one for PO White and one for the file.When Michele bent over the copier Spike. ''You behave so foolishly, Dave. How did you concoct this?''The nightmare was so real and I... ''Stop it! I should know better then trusting you. So worried about me, uh? I broke up with you. Don't you understand this?''But I... ''If you need sex go to see Sara. You are a nice couple.''Nadine, I... ''Sorry, David.' I said and hung up.I poured a glass of vodka, and made myself comfortable on the couch. My leg felt sore. Ten minutes later, I was still thinking about David. Why does he behave like. The girls told me to sit on the edge of the bed, and keep still and quite or they would tie me up and gag me. That startled me as I didn’t know they acted like their mother in the time I had seen them they seemed like your average college students.They started the music to swan lake and Joey begun dancing he was beautiful he knew the entire dance. After ten minutes the music abruptly stopped. Cecily shot up looked at Joey, who was now standing with his head hanging, and said you idiot, that was.
