Never too late: Part 2

Narrator's POV 

Jake tried many times to wake Maland up. He was worried that this was in fact Maland for real, then he might have fried his brain. Jake looked around himself frantically in search of some water. The nearest was far enough for him to bring it back to Maland. 

Suddenly an idea hit Jake, and positioning the unconscious Maland on his back, Jake carried him to the river bed. Dropping him carefully, He took Maland's head and immersed it in the water itself. He waited for sometime, waiting for any reaction before he decided to pull Maland up in order to avoid suffocation. 

As soon as he touched Maland's head, Maland jolted up spontaneously coughing really hard whilst trying to catch his breath and brush off the water from his face and hair. "Why the hell are you trying to kill me after all these times I protected you" Maland spat once he could speak.
