Rafe, as if fearing for any misunderstandings to occur, started explaining, "Saintess! It was my idea for a few members of the pharmacy team to join this trip. It is mostly because I would like to learn more from you about medicinal plants and how to identify edibles. Since there were four of us, two will join you today then on your next trip, the other two will accompany you."
I smiled at Rafe in understanding but did not say anything further. The more people joined the group, the more people will be able to learn things from me and at the same time, more hands to carry things!
On the other hand, Darth interrupted our conversation, "From now on, I will accompany you every time you go out to do some tasks for the church. Well, as long as that other guy is not around you that is. I will be with you when he isn't hovering around you." It was a statement, not in anyway asking for my permission or that from Rafe.
