The next night Treasure is not able to sleep. She is too excited about seeing her father in the morning. Qaletaqa is holding her so tight as he is sleeping. Her head is lying on his chest taking in his masculine scent. She kisses his chest. Qaletaqa opens his eyes, he smiles. "You can not sleep, my wife. Are you worried about seeing your father?" He is concerned about her.
She kisses his chest again. Then shakes her head. "No not nervous, just excited, my husband."
"Are you ready to get up? We can leave now." He is still looking down at her.
"Yes. the sooner the better." She is sitting up. As soon as she stood up she walked toward the girls' lodge to wake them up. But they could not sleep either. They are also excited about seeing Treasure's father. He has always treated them well.
