Days passed, at morning Mandell walked to the learning facility holding Madell's hand,
It was because he don't know the way to the learning facility and only know how to get back, that's what he said to Madell atleast and it surprisingly worked,
the humakey always walk him to the learning facility
After that he listened to his teacher, afternoon came and he eat the food the teachers prepared , Next is 'playtime' he called it that, A time which he always lose breath and ask for water
With the days passing, Mandell began to carry a container filled with water that he always kept to be prepared if he ever get tired when he played with the others
His stamina slowly got better that there's a time where he can catch a humakey in a game of tag
After that is night, He watch the healer heal their patient, listen to Hannah who's teaching him about herbs and other things, like how to massage someone then if he's eye feels heavy he go to the room hidden in Madell's office to sleep
That's how mandell's schedule worked with lesson actives and games he played changing as day passes by
Another morning came and Mandell got ready, he wore the unwashed humakey costume which doesn't smell bad at all,
He opened the door and saw Madell always at the same spot waiting for him and as soon as the door creak the humakey will asked
"Ready?" She asked and Mandell nodded
At the door of the healer house Mandell and Madell was about to go, but a certain humakey blocked their path
A large body making them look like children's off to school, well one of them is
"Sis, yawn~, I just go there, not trying to skip work or anything " He said weakly pointing at the deserted place where street vendor always flocked
Mandell always saw a lot of shop when he's going back to the healer house but not a single one of them was presented right now, it's deserted
Not even a unattended store stand, it's just flat ground
"See you later Mandell"
Not seeing the guy for days Mandell said
"See you later, sire"
"ooooh~, nice" Sire sound like someone who just received a back massage, trying to control his moan as he passed by the two as he enter the healer house
"Mandell" Madell whispered
"Sorry, I forgot " Mandell muttered before the two of them walked to the learning facility
At the hut, a number of children ran to approach Mandell one of them being Taly, the first kid to approached Mandell when he arrived here
"Let's play later" She said hugging mandell's shoulder while another child flew hitting his head on mandell's stomach
The humakey looked up to see Mandell looking pale he ignored it and said
"Have you poop today?"
Mandell mouthed 'no'
Seeing the kids acting 'close' Madell said
"I thought she wouldn't fit in?"
"They're kids, they pick up what they see" A voice said, a humakey appeared out of the hut, she's tall moving like a mother spreading the kids away from each other
"Then I'll see you later elder"
"Sorry for making you faint" Madell apologized
"Its okay, not your fault elder" She said opening the door for the kids to enter, waiting for Madell to turn around so she could go inside herself
"Then I'll leave you Mandell" Madell said and Mandell waved her hand as Madell turn around, probably to get back at the healer house
"Ahem, let's start the lesson" The teacher said before teaching everyone about irons and minerals found underground, after that is break
A wooden plate containing a toasted white worms, and a cup full of water
The worms taste like warm milk and its texture is identical to marshmallows , it taste amazing, mandell put half of the water on the cup at the wooden bowl on his side before gulping down the remaining half
Then play time had started, mandell grin and looked at the humakey by his side,
"Let's play tag" He whispered
At the side watching the tree and humakey's circling around it, mandell took a deep breath
"Let's do this" He wanted it to sound as cool as he thought about, but Taly just replied
"Okay let's go" She said hopping waving at the others "Hey, let us join!" She called
And the game begin, a humakey was the one chasing all Mandell had to do is run, circle around the tree, as for some reason, leaving the tree is out of bound and cheating
Mandell get ready glance at the wooden bowl waiting for him at the side and it started
"I'm coming!" The humakey yelled going after Mandell
Nice try!, he wanted to scream it, but he control his thought
The past few days their playing, mandell was always the first target, cause kids aren't stupid he's the weakest the slowest, and they knew it, use it to their advantage,
There are only two humakey's who didn't target him first, it's a guy and Tally, cause they tag each other before tagging someone else
But the one that was it wasn't Tally nor the guy she always tag first,
Mandell ran and as he was about to make a sharp turn to make a full circle he stopped for a second
"Aha!" After stopping he change direction and ran back to the way he came, and seeing the humakey chasing him about to catch him He stopped to change direction once again
Cause for some reason the humakey couldn't control his speed and always go a few meters ahead before he could fully stop,
'that's what you get for running so fast' Mandell pondered running doing the trick he had learned by playing this game for the couple of days
But we'll, he didn't endure it long, he slowly wear down that he couldn't do the trick anymore and the humakey caught him
"Got you Mandell"
"Always me" He mumbled moving out of the tree
to get to the wooden bowl, he need to pat himself by thinking of something this amazing
"Mandell, aren't you gonna play?" His teacher asked, possibly thinking that the kids just watching the others and couldn't join in
"refreshing" He mumbled putting the bowl down before replying to his teacher
"I'm tired teach"
