After chatting with Dr. Yang, Joe Ga felt a bit more enlightened.
He didn't try to persuade Nis to leave, because doing so wouldn't just disappoint Nis, it would disappoint Karman, and it would disappoint everyone in Sangha Town.
Karman's Witch Medicine was the best way to ward off the Zika virus. As long as Nis and the child exercised a bit of caution, their safety was guaranteed.
Joe Ga spent three quiet days at the manor...
He accompanied Nis on walks, helped her tend to the vegetable garden...
When Nis got bored, she modified a few .22-caliber hunting rifles and took her and a few kids out for target practice...
Occasionally, if he was in the mood, he would even help bathe Dumbo the elephant, ensuring the "young master" didn't smell so bad.
The people at P.B. knew their boss needed time to rest, so unless it was urgent, they didn't disturb him.
So, for these few days, Joe Ga's life was peaceful yet fulfilling...
