time, she felt completely loved, what a holy medicine for her depression problem.

      When she was calmer, they separate again, and the talk continued for a bit longer:

      — This is how it should be! We are a great team with a common objective: Unravel the complex meanders of the exciting destiny. We are with you, seer! (Renato)

      — Thank you. Can I rely on you as well, my dear archangels? (Aldivan)

      — Always! Your father Yahweh leads us at every moment. It is his will. (Rafael)

      — In the darkest night, when everyone says no, when there will be no way out, I will rescue you. At that time, I will show a lucid, clear and workable way. From then on, happiness will reign in your life for I am Yahweh, the true God. Word of Yahweh. (Uriel)

      — That has already happened to me. Touching. (The seer)

      — That is the way I feel. Count on me for anything. (Uriel)

      — Thank you. Count on me too. Aldivan)

      — Can we continue? Time presses it is almost night time. (Pointed out Rafael)

      — Yes, let’s go. (The seer)

      The walk restarts. The approximately five hundred metres separating them from the village are quickly covered at a steady pace. They walk along the first streets and turn right, walk another fifty metres ahead and reach a residence chalet style, 6x13 m, with an area in front and at the side a side garage, masonry smooth plastered and painted white walls, with the number thirty-five written on a wooden plaque. When they get near the door, they knock and wait until someone answers. It is a blonde young woman, medium stature, rosy cheeks, called Jackeline. The same one from the previous adventure, “The Encounter of Two Worlds”. She speaks.

      — Is that you, seer? How long!

      — Yes. I am at my fifth saga of the series the seer. And you, how have you been? (The son of God)

      — Well. Who are these people with you? (Jackeline)

      — They are my friends, Rafael, Uriel and Rafaela Ferreira. Renato, you already know him. (Aldivan)

      — Yes, of course. Pleased to meet you, guys. (Jackeline)

      — Pleasure. (The rest, simultaneously)

      — Excuse my bad manners, please come-in. (Jackeline)

      — Thank you. (The seer)

      Together with the group, Jackeline goes inside and as her parents were travelling she acts as hostess. They settle on the seven-seater settee in the lounge.

      It was exactly 18H00 and she took advantage of the pause to invite them.

      — What about going to the kitchen? You must be hungry.

      — A little. What do you think, guys? (The son of God)

      — I agree it. (Renato)

      — Me too. (Rafaela)

      — Let’s go. (Rafael)

      — Yes. (Uriel)

      Invitation accepted, they left the lounge, go along the corridor and reach the kitchen. They sit around the main table, while Jackeline goes to prepare tea and biscuits for a snack. Would have offered a dinner but there was no time and she wasn’t expecting visitors. When everything is ready, she serves them and then the seer takes the chance to speak.

      — Look, I want to ask a favour of you, Jack. Could you settle us for the night? It is already late, and we don’t have any acquaintances here.

      — Don’t worry. I have got available beds and mattresses for everyone. It will be a pleasure —She said.

      —Thank you. Are you still working as a health carer? (Aldivan)

      — Yes, and you in your great adventure as a writer? (Jackeline)

      — Yes. I love my work. People like Rafaela inspire me to continue. (Aldivan)

      — What is the matter with you, my dear? (Jackeline)

      — I feel a bit bored and sad about some things. (Rafaela)

      — I understand it. You are depressed. You have made an excellent choice by choosing to accompany him. Aldivan has got words of life. (Jackeline)

      — And you, Renato, how are you doing? You have grown. (Jackeline)

      — Well. This year, I finish the medical studies and I wish to continue my studies at the faculty. I have already had a few flirts. rsrs. —Said the youngster.

      —Kkk (Laughing). Very good! And you, Aldivan? Have you found love yet? (Jackeline)

      — Not yet, but I am looking for it. Who knows if one day maybe I can find it. However, besides that, I am an accomplished and happy man in my career and work. (Aldivan)

      — It is true. If there is a person who is happy and deserving it, that being is called Aldivan Teixeira Torres, and I don’t say that because he is my protegee. My judgement is impartial. (Uriel Ikiriri)

      — Aldivan is the rose among the thorns. Among the humans, there is no one like him. His greatness is so big that God regards him as his son. (Rafael)

      — I am proud of being his adventure partner. (Renato)

      — And I of having you as a friend. (Jackeline)

      — Ditto. (Rafaela)

      — Thank you all. You, together with the whole mankind, are important to me despite sometimes not deserving it! (The son of God)

      Everyone approaches Aldivan and embrace him. At that magic moment, they felt like true children of God, loved and protected. The embrace last sufficient time for the human warm to be felt. After, they break up the embrace and continue to have the tea and biscuits.

      When they finish, they leave the kitchen, return to the lounge and engage in other activities. Among them, watching TV, listen to good music on the radio and chat. This keeps them entertained until bedtime, being at exactly 22H00. Good night everyone.

      The night and dawn pass normally and finally the day breaks. One by one, the group elements awake and the hostess too. While the latter goes to prepare the breakfast, the others queue at the only bathroom to take a bath. As there were many, they hurry up bathing finishing in an hour’s time. After, they head to the kitchen and when they arrive there, for everyone’s delight they see the breakfast is ready. They sit around the table and like the night before, Jackeline serves them promptly.

      In a cosy and calm atmosphere, they enjoy the typical delicacies of the northeast outback such as manioc with dry meat, couscous, tapioca and bread rolls. Everything expertly prepared by the fairy hands of our friend Jackeline. At the same time, they take the chance to know themselves better.

      — Congratulations, Jack. With whom did you learn to cook so well? (The seer)

      — Thank you. With my mother. She is an excellent cook— Answered Jackeline.

      — Later can you give me the recipe? The seasoning is indeed excellent. (Rafaela)

      — Of course. There is no secret. It is only to put the ingredients in the right amount. (Jackeline)

      — Ok. (Rafaela)

      — What have you done since we parted? (Renato)

      — In my simple life as ever. In my work as a public servant, domestic chores and travelling on holidays, for nobody is made of steel. What about the books? Have you had much success yet?

      — We are doing a good job. The fruits, we will reap them later. (Renato)

      — Very good! (Jackeline)

      — Very well, Jackeline! You are example
