They both were shocked and stared at each other.
               Then  Andy  explained  at  length.  After  Riko  listened to
               Andy’s full explanation, they agreed to go together. The
               journey  was  peaceful  and  quiet,  but  not  for  Riko’s
               feelings. He kept thinking to himself, “Is it possible two
               people get the same treasure? Shouldn’t it be me? I was
               here first?”

                       Meanwhile,  Andy  and  Mep  accepted  Riko
               wholeheartedly  and  kept  talking  to  him  during  the
               journey although Riko rarely responded.

                       After  a  while,  Riko  couldn’t  bear  his  inner
               whisper, he had an idea to carry out an evil plan. In the
               middle  of  the  forest,  they  decided  to  rest a bit and sat
               under  an  old  shady  tree.  Riko  approached  Andy  and
               patted his shoulder.

                       “Hey, Andy, I want to pee over there, wait for me,
               okay!”

                       “Okay, be careful, usually there are animals in the
               bushes.”

                       Riko just nodded, then stood and walked toward
               his  destination.  Andy  and  Mep  lay  down,  sighing
               because their journey was really tiring.
