He approached the table, and after having planted all the preparations, he began273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQisL6ZwJX
pouring some orangey looking liquid into each of those mugs.273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wTIhelybp
“There you go.” He said as he finished pouring, “This will do you good.”273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKOvQHxUbx
“Thank you.”273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOXZL1adHj
“You must drink all of it.” He told me as he grabbed hold of one of those mugs.273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcug2fjs0Sl
“Ouch!” I complained, “Too hot.”273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHgiTu42C3
“That is how it is served, and how it should be taken.” He went on to sit quite273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6F4YLG9l9H
comfortably on an old dusty chair across that table. He drank his share in one swift273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDDPtDfKjL
gulp, and then he burped as he lit some sort of stick which he then placed in his273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LBLk2unEF
mouth. He seemed to be sucking on it and every time he did, the timid fire at the end273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7U287eoqOS
of it grew for a moment, before fading again. Curiosity was pouring from his eyes and273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSiuogheuV
lips now, just as that liquid had poured from that metal pot.273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFw5a0qQc1e
“That was the beginning.” I cut off any further insistence...273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOT26Ccx8uu
“The rest is all in here, huh?” He tried to sound uncaring, but I could see right273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5HJC0LuN2
through him.273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlQAB6Pt7q
“You are meant to read it.” I decided to indulge in the insisting game as well, and as273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzz1GvYukM3
I stood up, I fondly gazed at that notebook.273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0xzXfieiU
“Right.” He grabbed hold of it and placed it upon his lap, “According to you, that ol’273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡer0Ip2mzwg
fool wanted me to...” And then he opened it...273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SLoUxjb5j
I slowly began making my way to the next room, for there was something that273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzRJ4hpYfz
easily caught my eye the moment I set foot into his place. “In there you will learn how273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVojNBFlTMA
I made it to where you found me... waiting for you.”273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcv1Tne4FZE
This large box of clean glass filled to the brim with bubbling water, and in it, there273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaS3yQjNygv
were these weird samples of life swimming back and forth. Restlessly.273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLMqWRBKUQ
They reminded me of all those that I had met; in the way in which they could see273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2sVqucgmZ
the world in its entirety, but always constricted by the invisible walls, we all have273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nGdI02lEA
around ourselves. They also reminded me... of myself.273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Mev1KwVeT
“You know, at my age, this may take a while.” He flipped the first page with his left273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7YVBNcmEN
hand while his right went for a bigger pair of glasses. “Quite a while in fact.”273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMneZSQxtQ
“You must go through all of it,” I remarked, “and understand.”273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5lPYA2olV
“Wish I had something better than tea to palliate the process though.”273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOECZkpZAlZ
He murmured.273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ989cLghlXr
“I will be in the next room,” I spoke softly.273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfzdsiaNcS
“Oh, you like aquariums, do you?”273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5U1zUexFY1
“Aquariums...” I murmured...273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTEmXgXNwS
“We can talk all about it later; but for now, I think you should grab some rest.”273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmCc9Jsigb
He did not even look at me, his eyes were already too busy scurrying through those273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBJUXeQ5oe
first pages.273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1EtM8zw0T
“There is quite a comfortable couch in there as well. Why don’t you give it a try?273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyg7rDWlmRo
Don’t worry, I will call for you when I am done with this.”273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXb4vjaM92Q
“I just might.”
And with that, I left him to it..
