Well even if I was shocked, I still kept my calm and tried to change the subject. "So, Sucas. is there anyone that are free to take me to that meeting?" Sucas was silent for a bit. "Well, it is a fellow person that can actually." sucas finally said after that small silence. "Who?" I asked curious. "The person right next to this Nursing area" he led her down stairs. "look through this window" he said. I looked out. "You see that old-looking building right there? That building nature has almost eaten up? The one with the small window blocked with curtains" he directed me. "When Thee go there, make sure to knock 5 times and then shout Hazoul" Sucad said. I didn't completely understand what Thee meant so I asked, very dumb of me. I should've probably focused a bit on what the teachers learnt us. "What does Thee mean?" I stared at him, he stared back at me like i was an idiot. "Where were thee born? in a Cage? How do thee not know these kind of stuff." he asked back at me. I was silent. "If thee don't know what "thee" means then you probably don't know what "you" means, How long was I speaking to a idiot" he sighed. I quickly answered back with a: "I know what "You" means but not "Thee"
is thee a place, or a person's name?"
he looked at me for awhile, before answering that "Thee" mean "you".
Just that "you" is the new way to say "Thee".
I felt extremely stupid. and felt like I really stood out. "Anyway" he said trying to ignore what just happened. "Go do what I told you, didn't you want to go to the meeting."
After a bit I walked out of the exit door and waved goodbye. I went to that weird building. I knocked 3 times and shouted Hazel. But thankfully he heard it as Hazoul, and opened the door. "Ye-" he was about to say until he saw the girl. he did not know the girl so he wondered how she "knew" his name. He was about to close the door but decided to listen to what I had to say. "Hi! sorry to disturb. I'm new to the village, Sucas told me that I had to knock 3 times and shout your name. I want to go to the village meeting, but sucas had to take care of the nursing area while the nurses and doctors were gone, Care to show me the way to the local village meeting." he stood silent thinking whether or not he should. "Please sir, I really want to go! And sorry if I sound rude, But do you have anything better to do?"
he gasped, but then he nodded.
"You are quite the creepy stalker, but I shall give you a chance Madame." he said smiling. "I wasn't- I- I'm not stalking you." I was weirded out by the way that he said it. "Sure madame, I know I'm cool, but no need to stalk me"
I was speechless. Anyway he led me away to the village meeting. "HAZOUL" one man shouted. "Uh oh" Hazoul said knowing he's in trouble. Hazoul suddenly started running away from the man, and the man started to chase him around. Lionel Spotted me. "Hey over here!" he shouted towards me. I came running. "Sorry for being late to the meeting, I was unconscious for quite awhile." I apologized. The local people started to stare at me. "Who is she?" asked on of the local persons, "I don't know" answered a local person back, "Why is she hiding herself? She looks suspicious" said a random local person. I started feeling real uncomfortable. Lionel explained to everyone that I was new and that the Cape hiding my face is stuck. That sounded like a horrible excuse. but people didn't question it. i stare silently at the people. why did I want to come to this meeting, i asked myself but of course got no replies. Why did i want to come? Why did i ask someone so desperately to attend it. Is something gonna happen? I asked myself but again got no replies.
