I could lie

2 Days had passed. Ubok was still far ahead. We usually stopped through the night and whilst we did so I read the book of the Legendary Man. He was said to have fought countless people yet as Adae said he was loved by all. He was a really admirable man, he was what exactly what a hero should be. Someone who kills for good. Morning came again and we departed again. The journey was still just as awkward as the first day and it began getting to me. I now, wanted to talk with her but I didn't know what to do. She however, seemed cold and unbothered, she seemed as if she was someone I could not touch. That could not be. No one alive could be better than me however. I was stronger than her and probably smarter. I was the lone survivor of the greatest wind and by that I was the greatest. "Let's stop to eat" She said. I halted the horse and got off. I usually guarded the horse while she went off and wandered. I also noticed that she kept a stack of paper inside her own personal bag and ink. Each stop we took, she would write in it. It was then, I found something to talk about. I walked over to her and asked, "What are you writing about?".

"About you, your appearance, your mannerisms, habits, personality and actions" She responded still scribbling. I pieced together that she was doing this to document my journey but played dumb.

"Why's that?"

"You already know, I already know you're smarter than that" She responded coldly. I was left at a loss. Never in my life had someone disrespected me as much as her. I wanted to strangle her to the brink of death repeatedly until she lost all will to live. I bit my lip and turned away back to the horse.

The ride was silent and night fell again. This time however, I had another question. "Do you hate me?" I asked her.

"No, you've done nothing bad enough for that but you're heavily flawed" She said. I nodded. I hadn't thought of that. Me, heavily flawed? It was a thought that had never crossed my mind.

"Then what can I improve on?" I asked sitting down.

"Firstly, be more honest to me as I can already tell when you're playing dumb, secondly, ask for things more nicely and be nicer" She said. I nodded. That however, would be a hard task. I've hid my thoughts from people my whole life as they would think lowly of me if I didn't. That habit would be hard to lose. The second request was a bit easier however. I could lie.
