Clinton walked into a room. There were some kids and adults in the room, and they seemed to be waiting for something.
"Hey, Clinton, where have you been?" someone asked.
Clinton saw a boy waving at him. "Nowhere important," he answered.
"Where?" the boy asked.
"Nowhere important."
"Where?"
"Nowhere important."
"Where?"
"I already told you it's nowhere important."
"If it's nowhere important, than why can't I know?"
"Because you don't have to know, that's why." said Clinton.
"But why don't I have to know? How do you know that I don't have to know if you don't tell me?"
"Oscar."
"Yes?" answered the boy.
"Be quiet please," said Clinton.
"Why?"
"Because I won't be your friend anymore if you keep asking questions, understand?"
Silence.
"Okay, I guess you understood," said Clinton. Oscar nodded. "What happened today?"
Silence.
"Okay, you can speak now," said Clinton.
"Michael fell and bumped his head on the ground, Andrew accidentally hit the table with his knee, James-"
"Okay, that's enough," interrupted Clinton.
"Aw, there's still more stuff that happened and I wanted to talk more about it," said Oscar.
"We have time for that later," said Clinton. "Go and eat first."
"Yes sir!"

The same day, 8:00 PM...
Clinton was laying down in his bed, ready to find out more about the system, when a voice ran out from the bed next to him.
"Hey, Clinton, what happened to you today?" asked the person. It was Oscar. "You looked liked you were sleeping but no matter how hard I tried to wake you up, you just kept on sleeping."
"I was just a bit tired."
"Really?"
"Yes, really," said Clinton. "Now go to sleep."
"Yes sir!"
Then it was silent.
[Yes?]
[Yes.]
[Skills can be found in skill shop.]
[Ding. Skill shop opened.]
A transparent panel appeared in front of Clinton. There were only 4 boxes. One read all skills, the second one read active skills, the third was passive skills, and the fourth was search skills.
[No skill found. Please try again.]
Clinton sighed.
[Please search for yourself.]
