171. Merge

I knock lightly on the door when I get to the front of the room Mr Lorna said.

"Go ahead."

That's what they said, so when I opened the door, Flora was teaching Yua something. Is this a review of what you taught me before? Yua noticed about me when I sat in an empty place.

"Ah! Lena."

"Never mind. You can keep doing this, okay?

"Uh..."

Yua and Flora were looking at each other, hopefully. I wonder what you're doing? If I thought so, it seemed like I was studying calculations.

"Until it's over, 'cause I'm looking a little from the side"

"... ok"

Having said that, the two of them started to do the continuation, so I was watching her study from the side.

For a while, I've been watching you study from the side, but apparently you're studying how to add up and deduct. I'm looking at a book on how to calculate it. We both said we could calculate it, so it's a little review? and I was watching the two of us thinking about that.

Then a while later I closed the book because it seemed to have finished the whole way.

"Lena, are you sorry to keep you waiting?

"Fine. Because I don't care. What more do we do now?

"I was recently teaching Flora to study, so do you want to do something else today?

Indeed...... Playing with Flora? I feel like I'm always studying when it comes to it.

"I agree with Youre too..."

That's what I say and see Flora.

"I'm fine with that, too, but what do you play with?

Yes, Flora asked us. Surely what can I do to play? I can't play games or read books or anything like that in this world. Have you ever played me in this world in the first place? I've thought about it but I don't remember playing... In that house, it felt like I was doing a lot of things to live, so I probably didn't have time to do anything...... Oh, but reading is in the play category...... Won't you come in... I wasn't reading anything that wasn't because I was reading books that I thought were all necessary to live... and I was thinking about what I would do to play with that. But I thought I couldn't think of any more ideas, so I asked Flora to see them.

"... what does Flora do in her spare time?

"Huh? Me? Er..."

Flora looked surprised when she spoke to me but was thinking with her index finger against her cheek. Lovely to see that trick...... I waited for Flora to talk, thinking.
