Once again Jake was assailed by feelings of guilt and shame. Instead of returning to bury them when he had a shovel, he had succumbed to rum and awful sin. Nevertheless he felt relief at their absence -- and no particular surprise. The human body is heavy, but in the Mexican War he had witnessed how quickly it becomes distended with the gasses of putrefaction. That condition had aided the high tide and storm winds, which together had cleaned this beach, not just of its human flotsam. Now the strand glistened pristine in the early sun. Above the cove he verified the suitability of the small clearing, spied yesterday, for siting a camp. It was protected by the hill from western storms and from southern storms by the opposite rock wall, yet lay open to the common breeze from the northeast. It was a shelf of level rock, thus the absence of vegetation. Fallen stone could be used to construct both a sturdy shelter and a wall to protect against the terrible eastern storms. Food was nearby, literally growing on the palm, banana and breadfruit trees, and a crystal stream danced down the center of the cut. It was perfect, but would the girls agree to live with him there? It was Belle whom he had to convince, he knew. He must win her forgiveness. But how? * * * He returned to the mound on the beach bearing two ripening bunches of bananas hung over his shoulder and discovered, in addition to three well-scraped coconut rinds, the shovel taken yesterday from the boat. The girls must have found it, he concluded thankfully, thinking how it would ease the construction of the camp. Sitting in its tang was a small wooden box, also from the boat, "Bear Grease," according to its label. For his sunburn? Lowering the bananas, he took it up, pried off the lid with the knife point and slathered the white salve onto arms and forehead with immediate relief. How fortunate for the girls to find exactly what he needed! How good of them to offer it, under the circumstances! He held up the bananas and shouted several times into the tree line, "Come and eat!" They were slower responding. Finally the three of them, still in white petticoats, appeared on the beach and approached cautiously. He tore off a ripe banana and half-peeled it one side at a time, turning it in his hands so that they could study the operation. Then he took a large bite, chewed and swallowed. At last his stomach seemed to welcome the food. "This is a banana," he told them. "I see you liked the coconut. You'll like bananas even better. And thank you for the bear grease. That was very thoughtful." He backed away and they took his place on the mound. Belle peeled a banana as he had done and tasted it cautiously. Her expression showed approval. She said something in Chinese and passed the fruit to her sisters. Shortly each of them was eating her own banana with obvious pleasure, chatting all the while in a Chinese dialect. He smarted at the intentional rudeness but withheld comment because he understood that he deserved to be excluded. He told them, "I've found a place down the beach that would make a good campsite. It has food and water, and we can build a shelter there to protect us from the rain and from storms. It's high enough to see a passing ship and for a ship to see our smoke or fire. Would you like to come and see it?" The girls regarded each other. Belle turned to face him. "We'll stay here, thank you." He bowed towards them. "As you wish. I'm going there to work on it. If you need me, come down the beach as far as you can and call for me." "Would an ax and a saw be of help?" Belle asked around her mouthful of banana. "Yes, of course. Wonderful help!" He cocked his head. "Do you mean you actually found them?" "Wait for us." She added something in Chinese. The girls threw down their banana peels and turned away into the tree line. Jill looked back just before she disappeared. * * * They helped themselves to second bananas, watching the man's figure, burdened with the tools, plod down the beach. Jill asked thoughtfully, "Do you bargain differently in English?" "What do you mean?" asked Belle. "I watched Auntie Lee bargain for vegetables with the hawkers. They waved their hands and yelled a lot." Belle smiled. "They were bargaining for price. Auntie Lee and the hawkers both knew auntie needed the vegetables. We don't know what Higgins needs ... except I think he needs for us to forgive him." "Why?" asked Marie. "He made you bleed and I made him bleed. Aren't we even?" "No!" Belle declared passionately. "I'm surprised at you, Marie." Jill looked from one to the other with interest. Belle explained, "To hurt someone in her private parts is much, much worse than a little cut on the head. You know about hanging, don't you? Even he said he would hang for it if we were in a port. Don't you understand how bad it is? They would kill him, Marie." Marie frowned. "No, I don't understand. Isn't that what men do to every woman?" Belle drew herself up. "You'd understand if it was done to you!" Her eyes narrowed. "How can you know what men do to women?" Marie shrugged. "I talked to Sheng-jou." "Did you! When?" "After we spied on her with the gardeners. She said every woman does it with men. She said it's great fun, and sometimes you get a baby." "Father would punish you if he knew." Marie regarded her with calculation. "Can he do that from heaven?" Belle took breath to affirm it but, thinking quickly, held her peace. If she established such a theology, she would give them as much ammunition against herself as she might gain against them. "Is Father really dead?" asked Jill. Though a question, it was the first expression among them of their terrible loss. Belle sighed and admitted regretfully, "It seems that Mr. Higgins is the only man from the ship left alive." All three turned to look down the beach, where the man's figure had dwindled to a barely discernible dot. Only later that night on her bed of rustling fronds did Belle think of this conversation and the remarkable change overtaking shy Marie. For the next several days Jake brought them bananas, coconuts and breadfruit twice a day. They didn't care for the breadfruit, for which he apologized, claiming it was much better cooked. The mound on the beach became their "trading post," according to Jill, though they gave the man nothing further in exchange for the food. Thunderstorms struck at night, each time leaving the girls miserable in their roofless campsite. Their two-fruit diet, plus the shrinking remains of the hardtack, became increasingly monotonous. * * * "Marie!" The girl whirled at the exasperated tone in Belle's voice, to find the eldest glaring, hands on hips. "I can't believe you are so careless!" Marie took a breath. "What, now?" "Just look over your shoulder at the back of your petticoat." She looked, and expended the recent breath in a sigh. "Oh." Belle approached her, hand extended. "Take it off." "H-help me, won't you, so I don't get it on me?" "Huh! It's your blood. It's <already> on you!" Nevertheless Belle held the hem of the garment away from the girl's plump body while lifting it over her head. "You can just take it down to the surf and wash it out, careless one." "I am not careless! I couldn't help it." "I'm sorry, dear. You do bleed a lot, don't you? Wipe between your legs with the front of the skirt. You are careless for not counting the days. It's always 29 days from one start to the next." "We have no calendar." "Then make marks on a tree as I do." Belle watched as the girl drew the garment between her legs. Passing under the crotch, it acquired an additional reddish-brown streak. Marie's body was changing, with delicate pubic hair and mammary growths that promised to rival Belle's own. "I don't understand it," Belle groused. "You're not quite thirteen, but already this is your fourth curse. I was almost 14 before my first one." "Sheng-jou said that my plumpness was the cause." "Maybe so, but it is strange." "What can I do about it, Belle? We have no rag bag." "I guess you'll have to go naked and wipe yourself with those fuzzy leaves." "For a week? But what about Mr. Higgins?" "So far he respects our retreat. Even if he does glimpse you, I think it will be all right if you stay well away from him. Keep in mind, he's not very tame." "What will you do when it's <your> turn?" "That will be in another six days. The same, I suppose." Jill came dashing among the trees. "Come see what Jake has --" She halted suddenly with wide eyes. "Why is Marie naked?" "Jake?" Belle demanded incredulously. "You called him <Jake>?" Jill retorted righteously, "It's only what he <says> to call him. His name is Jacob Higgins." "You've been talking to him! Jill, you bad girl!" Belle grimaced with disgust. "I'm tempted to turn you over my knee." The youngest backed away by a step or two. She announced sullenly, "He caught a big fish." "Now just how could he do that? We have all the fish hooks." "He made a spear, like the Hoy-uns taught him." "<As> the Hoy-uns -- The who?" "The Hoy-uns, or something like that. He lived on their island once. Marie, that's blood on your leg." Jill's eyes widened. "It's fresh! When did he have time to do that? I've been with him since he caught the fish." Marie shook her head. "He didn't do it. It's my curse. 'Jake,' huh?" "Your what?" The youngest sidled closer, stooping. "Oh. I forgot." "The curse of Eve," said Belle, hand falling on Jill's shoulder and pulling her back. "It happens to all of us. Your turn is coming in a couple years." "Jake, too?" "'All of <us>,' I said. "Men don't get it, the lucky things! God only blamed Eve." "Why was that, Belle? Adam sinned, too, didn't he?" "Father said it's because God was more disappointed with Eve. He expects women to be more righteous." Despite her question, Jill proved more interested in the practical issue. "You made a rag bag for Marie on the ship." "Yes, but we don't have one here." Jill nodded confidently. "Jake knows all kinds of stuff. I'll ask him what you should use." "You will <not>!" Belle nearly screamed. "You stay away from him, do you hear me? Don't talk to him about this. Only women have this problem." Jill shrugged. "All right," she murmured placatingly. She took breath and added, "Jake said to tell you that it's a big fish with plenty for everyone. He had to take it to his camp where he has a fire to cook it. If we meet him near it when the sun is there" -- she pointed to a part of the sky -- "he'll give us warm fish to eat." "He has a fire?" "I guess. I didn't go <that> far away!" Marie declaimed, "Oh, I am <so> tired of coconuts and hardtack!" Belle sighed. "So am I." "But I'm naked!" Marie added in consternation. Belle shook her head. "You can't go naked." "But I want some fish! I can, too! I can stay behind a tree and you can bring me some." Jill remarked, "Jake said he could bring some back here, but it would be cold." "I want it warm," Marie asserted. Belle sighed. "All right. But you'll have to stay behind me." * * * Rounding the sand spit, Belle stopped to survey the rocks piled on the other side of the cove and the narrow beach extending into its interior, and realized for the first time how religiously the sisters had clung to their own campsite. It had been six -- or was it seven? -- days since the shipwreck, and the impulse to explore this land had never occurred to any of them. A feminine caution? Perhaps. If so, it stemmed from the dread of encountering their wild companion in unsafe circumstances. This brought a bitter smile to her lips. Where exactly <were> they safe, if he should wish to assault them? She was not so foolish as to suppose that all three together could prevail against him if he were sober and determined, except perhaps by means of the pistol whose box she had opened and immediately reclosed. Yet here they were, down the beach almost "as far as they could go," his directions to Jill. Certainly none of them could pass the rocks on the far side of the cove. Jill, who had pressed ahead on the trek, now hung back, looking to the eldest for guidance. Belle took a deep breath and directed the naked Marie, "Get behind me. Jill, help me shield her." The youngest sidled close and the three girls walked cautiously along the narrowing beach into the shade of the hill. Soon they were beyond the crashing surf and could hear the buzz of insects and the trill of birds other than the raucous gulls. Jill was first to see the smoke. She pointed up the hill. "There he is. Jake!" she called in her shrillest voice, cupping her mouth with her hands. "Jake, we're here!" The man came into view beside puffs of smoke shredded by the wind. He smiled widely and plunged down the hill in a few wide bounds. Shortly he stood on the sand a few yards before them. His face showed his delight. "You did come!" "I told you we're tired of coconuts," said Jill. "Well, I think the fish is about done. Come on up and help me eat it." They all looked at Belle. Without smiling she said to the man, "Thank you, Mr. Higgins. Will you show us the way?" "My pleasure, Miss Meron. If you ladies will follow me, I've pretty well worn a path this week." "Ladies!" whispered Jill derisively, glancing at naked Marie. Indeed he had worn a path up the hillside. In short order they reached the flat ledge of rock. They came first upon a waist-high wall of selected stone, obviously artificial, extending partly across the front of the clearing. "That represents a lot of work," Belle admitted. "What's its purpose?" Jake smiled deprecatingly. "I've been adding to it as I think of it. Perhaps some of you could help. I want to build it high as my head. It'll keep the strong winds off us." He pointed behind them, out to sea. "They come from that direction." Behind the wall they found a circular hut, built of bamboo and partly thatched with woven palm fronds. "I haven't finished this one, but I will in another day. It's for you ladies to sleep out of the weather." He pointed to a framework beyond it. "I've started one for me over there." Belle licked her lips. It was large enough for the three of them, and if the woven roof were half-way water tight it would be a wonderful improvement over no roof at all ... but sleeping only ten yards away from <him>? "Come on." He gestured with his head. "Let's try the fish." He led them to a spot in the center of the ledge. A small fire burned nearby, but the man's objective was a low heap of stones beside it. Protecting his hands with a folded palm frond, he knelt and removed several stones from the top, revealing a strip of white flesh bubbling in its own juices. The fitful breeze could not entirely dissipate the savory odor of broiled fish meat that suddenly filled the air. "You heated the rocks first," Belle remarked with interest. "Yes, and it will surprise you how long they stay hot!" He took up a stick that had been cut just after a triple branching, obviously his fork, and pointed to several flat pieces of slate. He smiled. "That's the best I could do for dinner plates, but they're clean. Pick up one and let me serve you." His method, using the forked branch and the huge knife point together, was to pry a section of backbone and the associated ribs away from a selected fillet, then slice the meat itself free before forking it onto the "plate" of the supplicant. "If it's not salty enough," he told Jill, who of course was first, "dip your fingers in that coconut husk and sprinkle some sea-water on it. I'm afraid you must eat with your fingers." A blissful expression appeared on the child's face at the first mouthful -- before her eyes flew open and her breath puffed loudly in and out. "Yes, it's hot," he agreed. "You should blow on it first. Here, drink this juice." When Jill was settled, Marie was next. She approached the impromptu oven shielded by her elder. Belle looked back to coordinate their kneeling, but with a grunt of impatience, the drooling adolescent skipped around her sister and dropped to a squat directly across the oven from Jake, careless of the brown streaks exposed on her inner thighs. She extended her slate hopefully. Jake looked inquiringly at the discomfited Belle. "Did, ah, something happen to all her clothes?" The young woman sniffed. "I believe you can see what the trouble is. But she had to have warm fish." The man went ahead and filled Marie's plate but said to her elder, "She needs to do what the wahines do. So will you." "The who?" "The girls of the Hawaiian Islands. They make disposable skirts out of large leaves, such as palm fronds, which don't show stains. But if one does get dirty they just whip up another. I've seen a girl make a new one in half a minute." Belle agreed dryly, "I'm sure you have! Do you possess this skill?" "Well, I never made a skirt before, but the Hawaiians taught me how to weave leaves with screw-pine shoots." He indicated the half-completed roof of the nearby hut. "Let me serve you this meal and I'll see about making your sister a skirt." "My name is Clister Marie," Marie announced around a mouthful of fish. When her trademark blush did not appear, he commented, "I thought you were the shy one." "I'm not shy," the girl retorted, staring into his eyes, "and I don't say, 'No.'" "Marie!" cried her elder. "You certainly do say, 'No!' Mr. Higgins, I would fancy this part in the middle. Can you, ah, skip ahead?" "It's no trouble," he assured her after sparing a glance at Marie's budding breasts. So this was the one who had checked on him after the storm? As she ate, Belle glanced around at Jill and smiled. "I guess now we know who the 'Hoyuns' are." "The who?" asked Jake. "Jill told us you said the 'Hoyuns' taught you to spear fish." Jill tossed her head. "I said, 'Or something like that.'" "I see." Jake smiled at the child. "She was so excited at my good luck." Belle remarked politely, "Captain Norris showed us the Hawaiian Islands on his charts. You visited them, perhaps?" He nodded around his own mouthful of fish. "Yes, about five years ago. I lived there for six months and learned a lot about the people of all these islands." "Are you sure this is an island?" "Oh, yes. One of the northernmost Marquesas. I found a note left by the captain that told where the ship foundered." "Where are the Marquesas?" "Just about in the middle of the Pacific Ocean." "Do you know if they're inhabited?" "Some of them. An American discovered them but I heard we let the French have them a few years ago. I guess we don't want to be bothered. From the way you speak English I believe you're American." "I am. And Marie. Jill was born in China. She's both. How can we contact the French?" He shrugged. "By going where they are, which will be one of the larger islands. If we hadn't lost that sailboat ... Miss Meron, of all my sins, letting a little squall blow that boat away was the worst." "That's a matter of opinion, sir! What sailboat?" "The lifeboat you rode ashore was also fitted as a centerboard sloop. We could have gone <anywhere> in it!" He studied her thoughtfully. "One of your sisters, I now think Marie, came to me after the storm and told me what I had done." He shook his head. "It made me sick at heart. How I hated to believe it!" Her eyes flashed. "You ... You claim you don't <remember>?" "I do not remember, and I hope this is some consolation to you." "Consolation! It makes me furious. How dare you deny it! You <raped> me, sir. You hurt me and made me bleed." He took a deep breath and squared his shoulders. "I don't deny it. I just don't recall it. I can remember drinking rum and singing that silly song about the Boston lass, which I'll be first to admit is unfit for ladies' ears. I can ... even remember thinking that I was like a sheik alone with my harem on an island. But then it's all blank. Miss Meron, don't you know that after too much drink a person doesn't remember what he does? No, of course not. You are too young and too well raised to have such experience." She had heard servants talk about this phenomenon, but that he might be speaking truth infuriated her even more. Could he forget such harm as that? She gritted her teeth and suggested, "Feel of the back of your head." He started to raise his hand. "You mean the new cut?" "Yes. One of my sisters struck you with the edge of a coconut husk while you were doing your worst to me. It cut the back of your head, in the middle." He stared at her. "Did that stop me?" "You rolled off me and lay on your back, unconscious, for many hours, until the storm came after dark." He sighed and lowered his head. "Miss Meron, I am ... sorry. I hate it that I have treated you so." He turned partly away. "I ask you to believe that I hate it as much as you do." She snorted in her anger. "How can you say that?" He sighed again, put down his slate of fish half-eaten, walked over to the wall and leaned against it, his head sagging. Jill, her eyes following him with interest, looked beyond him and suddenly straightened. "What's that way out there?" she demanded. "Out where?" asked Marie. "There, at the end of the world." She used the Chinese expression for <horizon>, translated literally to English. Even Jake looked up. He jumped fully erect. "My god, a ship!" he cried, turning with wild eyes toward the fire. "Quick, bring me green leaves, all you can tear off!" Belle took a moment for a single glance. She could make out tiny white sails, the kind she had always seen at the tops of masts, hardly more than a dot perched on the horizon. She hurried to gather leaves, as directed, and brought them with her sisters to Jake beside the fire. He was fanning the fire while raking in dead grass along with the dry leaves that had collected on the forest floor. "Throw yours on a few at the time," he ordered. "We want to make a lot of smoke. Just don't smother the fire." Together they worked until the clearing was choked with gray clouds despite the fitful breeze. His shirt was soaked with sweat and spotted with soot when he raised both hands toward the girls at last and declared between gasps for breath, "There! If that doesn't do it, nothing will." They all ran to the wall while their smoke streamed into the sky above them. The distant ship had moved through a noticeable angle. Reluctantly Jake had to admit to himself that the sails were smaller. The second to'gallant spar that had been barely visible before was now sunk below the curve of the Earth. They watched for a long time. Finally Marie said sorrowfully, "It's not coming back for us, is it?" Jake sighed and shook his head. "No, my dear, she is not. If a lookout is even aloft, he won't see our smoke now unless he's looking for it... Oh, god, I've done it again! I took my eyes off the sea too long and never saw her until she was already pulling away." With another sigh he turned back to the fire and removed the worst smoldering leaves to the bare ledge to die out. When he raised up, he found Belle waiting for him. "At least, Mr. Higgins, this should give us hope. If one ship came by, surely another will follow." Slowly he nodded. "Thank you. That is about the best face we can put on it." "Mr. Higgins, if ... if that ship had returned, wouldn't you be placed in danger?" He regarded her curiously. "What danger?" "You yourself said that you might hang for ... for what you did to me." He straightened with a sigh. "I guess that would depend on you and your sisters, Miss Meron." "The fish tastes good," said Marie with relish, arriving with the last of her serving in hand and mouth. "Jake, were you going to make me a skirt?" * * * Marie was thrilled with her new vegetable attire and pranced about the clearing, causing the skirt to sway and to open and close seductively about her shapely legs. Jill watched only briefly with gaping mouth before predictable words issued from it. "I want one, too!" The youngest jumped from one foot to the other in excitement. Jake smiled at her and within minutes she was clad in a skirt of leaves, having exhibited no hesitation at all in doffing the petticoat, now no longer white. The chests of both girls were left naked. Belle drew a long breath, regarding them with ill-concealed horror. How indecent for her sisters to be so displayed in the presence of a man! It's just another step in the descent toward savagery, she groused to herself, although with a sigh she did accept the fact of it. At least Marie's bottom was now concealed -- most of the time. She admitted that they looked quite fetching in their new garb. The bright green skirt contrasted pleasantly with their pale torsos. Jill's flat chest was adorned with roseate nipples only slightly swollen, suggesting what was to come within a year or so. Marie's small breasts, not yet half formed, were soft cones of flesh, too immature to jiggle, much less sag. Yes, the girls were indeed lovely, she concluded, in their half naked, savage state. But she resented Higgin's undisguised ogling. "Need you stare so?" she demanded angrily as they stood apart from the girls who frolicked together a few yards away. "It is an innocent look upon an equally innocent sight, Miss Meron," the man replied with a new confidence, now that the girls had joined him on the ledge. After all, <he> had not been the one to fetch Marie here naked! "May I weave a skirt for you?" He almost smirked. "You presume too much, Mr. Higgins," Belle responded with a venomous hiss of such intensity that the man was taken aback. "In the islands," he said quickly, reassuming a penitent tone, "the display of breasts is not considered obscene." "That may be, but we are only transients on this island, sir, and while we must accommodate ourselves to the circumstances, my sisters and I shall not revert to savagery." Belle was seething. "Yes, of course, ma'am," he hurried to agree, addressing the young woman as if she were an imperious aunt. "Mr. Higgins," Belle continued in the same tone, looking sternly into Jake's well-worn face, "it is unacceptable for you to build your shelter up here on the ledge so close to ours. I would prefer it down nearer the beach." Jake lacked the credible authority to protest her decision, and so he just nodded. Belle noted with a measure of satisfaction that his face had lost its aura of pleasure. "We'll move in tomorrow," she announced, "if you'll finish our roof. Will that be today, sir?" "Yes'm," Jake mumbled. "But won't you ladies please have some more fish?" Belle shepherded her sisters again to the fire, gratified by Higgins ready submission, but wondering how long it would last. <1st attachment end> ----- ASSM Moderation System Notice------ Notice: This post has been modified from its original format.
