An Unexpected Twist
Just then, Mang Tino spoke again.
“Roger… there’s something else you should know.”
Roger looked up.
“What is it?”
The old man pointed toward the forest.
“A few months ago, some men came here.”
“Men?”
“They said a big company wants to buy land in this area. They plan to build one of the largest farms in the region.”
Roger frowned.
“Do you know the company’s name?”
Mang Tino nodded slowly.
When he said the name, Roger froze.
Because it was the same company that rejected his proposal five years ago, saying his farming idea was “too small to succeed.”
The Final Realization
Roger looked at the mountain.
The pigs.
The stream.
The land that had survived without him.
Then he smiled slowly.
“Well,” he said quietly.
“What?”
Roger glanced across the valley.
“It looks like I got here before they did.”
