102 June (2/2)

”There is only one yellow bottle so I don't need to know.” Hurriedly, that person runs out of the room, probably to do as June instructed. When they had left, June turns to me and says,

”That was Filo, a resident of this village. His brother, Dao, is in bed with a sever disease so he spends most of his time here at my clinic looking after Dao. I had told him earlier to keep an eye on you as well because I had to go somewhere. That is why he was the first person you say when you woke up.”

Thanks for the explanation. It's believable, June, I'll give you that. Maybe it's true. But, I can't be convinced just yet.

”Hmm …” June looks at me curiously. ”Since I haven't seen much of your race, I am having trouble understanding your expressions. It'll be really relieving if you could speak so you could vocalize things.”

Yeah, I too am having trouble the changes in your expressions. I can guess them from your words though. I guess might as well do him a favor and give him what he wants. I myself would want to test my speakers.

”A-a-aai-I” That's a rough start. But, let's continue, ”W-w-wh-wher-where m aai? (Where am I?)”

June seems to have understood my words despite them not coming out very clear, so he answers, ”You are in a village called Zera. The province you are in is the Eastern. And the nation you are in is Kidar.”

Would one generally go in that much detail when answering that question?

”You are about half the planet away from Telmakim, where you want to go.”

What!? How would he know that?

”Lady Dues, oh, I'm sorry, the Goddess contacted us and told us all about you. She is also the one who told us where you were so we could come and save you.”

…

”You look suspicious.”

”Aaai … e-em. (I am.)”

”That's fair. But, for now, you should rest. We can deal with your suspicions later.” June says and gets up. ”I have other patients to take care off. Let me take care of them first so I have enough time to remove your suspicions.”
