11 Skill to Talent

As I fell to the ground, l thought I was going to die. I took a quick look above me and I saw Emiko with that smile that can scare a pack of wolves. So these flowers are called "What if" or at least that's what Emiko called it. Basically, the flowers give a what if situation depending on what the people near it say. " sorry I heard that you have a mind of an assassin and I guess the rumors were true. Not just anyone can hold up a gun and fire. Someone with the mind of an assassin means that you might be a natural born assassin but having this said it not really what your best talent is. Well, I think skill is something you learn right?" Emiko said while looking at me with a questioning look then dusting off her top. She stated " I guess just like how I learn how to climb a tree. That's a skill." although figuring out how to climb was hard it was totally worth it. " correct, and talent is something your really good at, so I believe that skill can become a talent. Omm, how do I explain this? Think about how you learned how to climb a tree that's a skill but what if you trained until you can climb buildings in seconds then isn't it considered a talent?" she explained. " wait so you're saying my talent is climbing sorry but I think that's the shittest talent you can ever have" but really I like hell I what to be Spiderman. I was really known to not be the friendliest in the neighborhood. "haha, well maybe and maybe not. You see it doesn't matter what knowledge you have on something or how long you did it. you just have to try it and don't back down. If you keep on training on that skill you will become good at it, so good that you'll better than most people that what will they call it? Of course, people will call it talent but that's just my opinion.".

After that Ms. Emiko told us to clear out the flowers for the rest of the day so we can make a place to spare for our gym class later this year. As we worked I realized the same thing when I fought with Ms. Emiko. I'm way too slow. Even when I was clearing my area of flowers, which was smaller than the others in my group because Ms. Emiko felt sad for tricking me. I was still the slowest to finished and once I was done I had to go straight to my dorm so I won't get haunted by Hina's dogs because I missed curfew. I couldn't even explore the town.

The next day I asked Hina how I can get faster. " well it depends if you mean speed wise or smart wise. For example" Hina stepped to the right and my eyes followed as I looked to the right but nothing there. She was behind me." this is what speed is smart wise its called footwork. Do you wish to learn this? Well, it's gonna be hard. This is not really that easy to teach but if it's you maybe this way." Hina told me to do whatever it takes to not face her. Having this said I turned around and started to walk away from her but before I could take one single step she was there staring right back at me. No matter how many times I ran and turned and even climbed she was always right there in front of me. I soon gave up when I started to feel like I was in a box that slowly closed in on me.
