I am Gideon: Chapter #21

by Dragonhorse | Jun 7, 2026 | Content, I Am Gideon (Journal)

Fidel was a man of his word.  Nothing was mentioned, and I was left alone to do my work.  That does not mean I was left alone.  I awoke one morning and realized I was being urinated on – someone seeing how high he could pee.  I found horse manure in my soup and humanure in my boots.  I gritted my teeth and went about my work, and when the others saw they couldn’t get a rise out of me, after a couple of weeks they gave up and left me alone.  Period.  I made no effort to make friends, and they made no effort to befriend me.
