He initially thought she left. But surprisingly, she answered his question.
"Yes, it counts. In fact, the turtle is pleased to see a monkey's head rather than the whole body."
"Oh," It made the collection easier then. Keith grinned. He jumped up and stood beside the girl. She was wary of him. Her aqua eyes glared dangerously. Her whole body was in a defensive pose. As if warning him not to take one step closer or else…
"Can I have the head?" Keith asked while pointing at the discarded head. She tossed it to him.
"Good. Don't eat the head and give it to me, alright?" She frowned at him. It was obvious she didn't understand.
"Head." Keith raised the monkey head in his hand. "Give to me." He pointed to himself. Her brows raised in understanding and she nodded.
Keith almost chuckled at their conversation. He did not expect he would get to meet a girl lacking intelligence but so proficient in killing and hunting.
