“Rat-a-tat-tat.” Debbie was startled by a sudden knock at the door. It was already well past her usual sleeping tand she wondered who could it be at this ungodly hour. She had just unzipped her down jacket. She had no choice but to zip it up again.

“Who is it?” she called out.

“Young girl, it’s me.” It sounded like the voice of the village head’s wife.

Her guess was right. When Debbie opened the door, she saw the village head’s wife and her handsson standing outside.

The woman smiled pleasantly on seeing Debbie and asked, “Young girl, did I wake you?”

Debbie shook her head.

“No, it’s okay. I hadn’t slept yet. Is everything okay?” she answered, confused as to why these two were paying her a visit at night.

The woman turned towards her son. He immediately lifted up something from the ground and handed it to Debbie.

“This is our electric warming fan. My mother and I have brought it to you so that you don’t get cold,” he told her coyly.

“But…no… I can’t take this. This is too generous.” Debbie was deeply moved. As far as she knew, there was not even a water heater in the village. How on earth did they manage to procure an electric warming fan for her?

She didn’t want to prove a burden to anyone, but the village head’s wife was having none of it and straightforwardly asked her son to carry the fan into Debbie’s room. Before Debbie knew how and

what, the boy had already plugged the fan into a socket and the room was filled with the slight hum of its motor.

“Thank you so much! But if I keep the fan in my room, what about you?

You’ll be cold at night without it,” Debbie protested, though she wasn’t entirely ungrateful. If she had guessed right, then this might have been the only electric warming fan in the whole village.

With a genuine smile, the woman responded, “We’re used to this weather, young girl, but you’ve come from the big city. You can’t fall asleep at night without it. Please sleep tight. We should get going now!”

Then, she held her son’s hand and they left together, Leaving Debbie to her confused thoughts.

With the warming fan on, the room was soon filled with a warm ambiance.

Sitting at the edge of the bed in her thoughts, Debbie even forgot to lie down.

She was confused. ‘Why does the village head’s wife treatso well?

Is Jared’s joke true? Does she really wantto stay and marry her son? Truth be told, her son is quite handsome. But…I’m married. I have Carlos. If that’s why this whole special-treatment-thing is going on, I’m afraid their wish can’t ctrue, and it’s got to stop, ‘ she mused.

As it turned out, she couldn’t be farther from the truth. This was proven when she went to get shot water

It wasn’t only the village head’s wife who was treating her so well.

Debbie found that almost every person of the village who was a part of her life at the moment was being very kind. Even the owner of the house which she was staying in gave her special care. When

she walked out of her bedroom and told the hostess that she wanted shot water, the hostess immediately brought three thermoses to her bedroom.

That wasn’t the only thing she did. Earlier, she had prepared a new basin and a clean towel for Debbie too. At the moment, Debbie hadn’t thought too much about these new things, because she believed that all the other schoolmates had the sthings as hers.

The notion was broken rather abruptly when after washing her face and wiping her body, she slipped into the bed again. Much to her surprise, the bed didn’t feel cold. And the fan couldn’t have warmed the bed; it was too low for that.

Debbie sat up and took a careful look. It wasn’t until now that she noticed there was an electric blanket on her bed. And moreover, someone had turned it on in advance, so it was already warm enough now.
