eracles the wizard, stood before large longing hut. It is his past associate‟s home, where he left his favourite horse, Ander. The associate and his memories have been etched into his mind strongly; he could remember travelling with Abacus Dolphin, his associate, during the past age of Phantasia.
He smelt the manure, the smell of which he felt calm and pacific, he felt home, he was sleepy, and he then faded his daydreams and tapped the door. He was nervous and terror that he was going to meet his long back friend and was boggled how to react when he meets him.
He stood as though remembering past memories, that day on Abacus‟ birthday, there was an enormous feast inviting all the inhabitants of the town. The speech given Heracles that day is a legendary even today by all the people, that day, they were ready to go to the journey to collect some talisman. So, they don‟t know will they survive the journey or not, so they all enjoyed the feast very well.
That day Heracles cooked the food, he himself gone to the bazaar, brought home all the groceries to cook the feast. He himself floured the wheat, baked the flour to bread, the bread is crunchy and tasty that day that nothing left for himself. The cauliflower mash roast is a special; the recipe was even today famous at all canteens and restaurants. Those days Abacus was young, was going to marry his beloved bride, Sandrine. As Heracles is a wizard, his lifespan is so long that he would age only when he exceeds 500.
That day Sandrine admired Heracles cooking, and everyone spent the day very happily, the feast and the enormous cream cake for his beloved friend, he would not forget that journey. The door was open, Heracles jumped out of daydreams and looked forwards, it is Abacus‟ wife, Sandrine, and she was now a granny, because she was a normal human, but,
Heracles was yet handsome and young as he was a wizard. Sandrine could identify that it was Heracles, she laughed as she saw her old friend, She said “Heracles! You! Come in, come in boy come in!”
She dragged Heracles indoor, the home is neutral and dim, and there are 6 children of different ages, Sandrine said, “These are our sons and daughters, this is Johan my first son, this is Peter, this is Jacob, this is my first daughter Sophia, this is Moses, this is Maria” As Sandrine dictates their names, the children salute Heracles. Heracles gave a smirk, he settled on seat, and then asked,
“Sandrine! Long past I‟ve not seen you” Sandrine said, “Thence after you gone, there were certain hardships Heracles, but by god‟s grace, we now live exult” Heracles spoke, “where‟s my friend?!”
“He‟s gone for an errand, he will come back!” said Sandrine walking into the kitchen. The home is dim, only a window was the source of light, and the hall had nothing, a bed of palm laid amongst the floor, a wardrobe, a cabinet, and some ancestry portraits hung upon the wall. There was a corridor to kitchen at very close to the hall. Sandrine asked, “Coffee or tea?
Heracles said, “coffee please!”
There was some footsteps, the footsteps end at the doorway, a figure entered in, it was Abacus, Heracles and Abacus both froze at shock at sight, they are stunned, Abacus isn‟t alike that day, he had crinkly wrinkly face, and a long beard as Santa, he was a like a grandpa.
Heracles chortled, and Abacus too reacted, they both hugged each other. And after a few moments, they settled calmly on their sofa, and the coffee is ready.
“So, you‟re going to be a father-in-law” mocked Heracles
Abacus chuckled and said, “hey, Heracles! Yet you didn‟t lose your ridiculous attitude, huh! And Johan is marrying a girl, her name is Rosalina, promise me you must participate, next month!” Heracles sipped coffee and placed it on the table, and then spoke, “I think, I‟ll attend only if possible, And I came for Ander, is he fine? I‟m on a job to Vaseline!”
Abacus said, “Don‟t worry, my friend, he is fine, he‟s in the backyard” Heracles stood up, and strode into the backyard. There is shed, and there was his horse. He ran to him and Ander too identified him, Heracles petted him, and Abacus came, “he craved for you many times!” said Abacus, and Heracles brought him outside, there the road is like jasmine, as the sun is on the middle of the sky in noon.
Heracles ascended into horse, “ok, Heracles! Go carefully, go in path where there are cool banyan trees, and there must be grass and mushrooms, be careful! And Vaseline is too far!” said Abacus, and his children are waving to him, the sunlit is too warm, and Heracles smiled at them and rubbed his Horse, and felt back the older times, and then triggered his horse up and then it sprinted forward,
Heracles turned back at Abacus when moving forward, the vision is warmer than the sunlit, his friend waving at him, and now he feels a new energy while riding on Ander..
