Isiah tried to keep his schedule as he used to before he met Ciel, the kid was not that dependable on him either, he took care of the bases too, except for food, he always waited for Isiah to bring him some.
The hours Isiah spent on the institution were getting longer each day, the information he learned, the spells, the theoretical stuff were a lot and without any real practice he was going to make himself distracted.
Isiah didn't have any experience with kids to begin with, but all he knew was that Ciel was an easy kid to live with .
He helped around the house even when he asked him not to, he was not that messy and he was very polite.
When Isiah left the house to go to the institution in the morning, he always took him with him, he didn't tell him what he was doing there but he specifically told him to play around and not care about a thing, because the institution was already empty while he hid himself under those books .
The best part about that was having the access to the resources that he was forbidden to have them all his life.
" Can i go outside the institution, i want to see something"
Isiah didn't even notice Ciel's presence, so he said loudly:" Oh kid, you are going to cause me a heart attack, can you please knock on the door once you come here ? "
Isiah tried to formulate that phrase in the best way possible to not hurt him, therefore the kid just said: " I knocked the door, you were focusing on what you were reading and didn't hear me"
Isiah passed his fingers through his dark hair then said:" Ah sorry, well , you can …just be careful okay "
The kid went immediately with his little steps, and Isiah kept on looking on the emptiness where he was standing a few seconds ago, he was not walking normally like any other kid, he was avoiding making any noise while walking.
ƥαṇdαηθνε| " If i only know what happened to him" He said with despair, obviously Isiah was not that strong to deal with anyone's problems, he couldn't even deal with his problems, but that fragile soul was something that he wanted to save from the moment he saw him.
Isiah kept on reading for the next few hours while he forgot totally about Ciel, and when his stomach started to ache because of hunger, he raised his head and looked around .
he shouted immediately: " Ciel, shit …i totally forgot him"
He stood right away and walked towards the door to look for him, Isiah was very anxious because of his lack of responsibility towards him.
The moment he opened the door and even walked a few steps out of it, he noticed that small fragile body sitting next to the door while making his arms around his legs, Ciel was sitting there very bored while waiting for him to finish studying.
" I thought that you were outside playing !"
" I was, i played for a long time, then i got tired and wanted to rest for a bit"
" Why didn't you come here to tell me ? "
"You were too busy with your research, i didn't want to annoy you, i was waiting for you to finish so that i enter the room"
Isiah knew that he shouldn't said those few words to a sensitive kid like him, he bit his lower lip with anger, his eyebrows were contracted automatically afterwards, his face showed anger, he couldn't hold a little smile to face the innocent kid.
" Ciel, why are you being so cautious when you are dealing with me? I feel like you are trying to obey me with everything you do, i don't want you to obey me, sure …we are strangers…we don't know most of the things about each other but…i just want you not to be scared of me "
Ciel was looking at him in silence, so he added:" Am I scary to you?"
Ciel stood at that moment and said:"Iam hungry, Isiah"
Isiah was stunned by the way he was responding to him, he was a kid and he shouldn't wait for a long sophisticated response from him.
" Well, I am hungry too, let's have something to eat first, okay !"
" okay!"
The moment Isiah walked out of the institution he noticed an unusual movement, for the past weak people were acting all reserved while they kept living their lives .
But today was different, a lot of groups of people passed him and Ciel while they were heading towards the forest.
"I saw that woman crying, what is happening ? " Ciel cut the silence .
" I didn't see anything"
" Did you see their clothes, they were not from here too, did something happen? "
Ciel was concerned about what he saw, yet Isiah tried to keep his eyes blind on things, because he kept on thinking of what would happen if a group of people noticed him .
People in groups they all always tend to be so stupid and impulsive, and with a controvercial person with them present among them a choas would happen easily.
" Let's eat first, then we join them, ah …Ciel ..my stomach really hurts …i want to eat something…but definitely not orange, if i have to see another orange i would puke right here".
Ciel giggled when he sensed the humor in Isiah speech then said:" woaah, ..i wouldn't mind having another orange, but i prefer another thing"
" Okay,now…let me figure out where we should go first, you don't mind going for a long walk?"
Ciel noded with his head then followed Isiah's steps.
Isiah sighed with relief because the kid didn't ask more questions, or showed interest to follow those groups of people.
Their clothes were certainly different from people's clothes in district one.
Each region here has its own culture and history and that extended to their apparel too.
" Region two, those were from region two , Isiah…i know that for sure"
