Chapter 546

" why were you at the base then?. Did you run away?" I mean, from what he had said earlier, there is no way he would have been allowed to leave the confines of the clan, so how did he get out?,

He shut down on me immediately I said this, I knew then that he was not willing to share this with me and this was something he probably considered private or it may actually be a memory that he does not want to relieve, I definitely want to suppress majority of mine. I tried to think of another way in which I can phrase the question, so it would not look extremely intrusive,

" You were smaller when we met the first time and was made up of skin and bones, but you look so much better now" I nudged him with my elbow as I said this,

When I heard his laugh, I was happy because he was happy no matter how brief it was. But I remember then, I was taller than him and this made me feel the need to protect him after how I heard of the way they were planning to use them for their selfishness and for mere entertainment purpose. How can a person play with the life of another and still sleep comfortably?. It does baffle me a lot. This is the main reason why I should not be left alone with my thoughts, I start to conjure up question that there is no answers to. I. Say no answers to because no one is willing to provide the answers for me. There are a lot of things which I feel should be changed, even with regards to our laws and custom but I can not attain such on my own.

For this very same reason, I play nice with the elder most times even when he offends me because I knew if I stick with him, and be covered by his reputation and also be known to people as his subordinate, slowly I can start to effect little changes but first of all, I need to build it up. I also have to work on myself especially strength wise, to ensure that I can be able to defend myself, if need be. I wanted to show the people too, that I will be able to do whatever that is required of me to prove that I am fit for the oisy, but maybe I should take a short sleep. I may probably not wake up anytime soon but the Juna I knew would not leave me here stranded, he would ensure that I either return back to mother's tent or stay to protect me,

"You must be tired " he said it certainly and I could not blame him or argue because I was worn out and my body was letting me know that I needed to recharge . Maybe I would ask Mother for a plate or two, as I would sleep better on a full stomach
