//first win//

                                    

                                          
"HeY! Let go of me!!! I wanna sleep!" I complained as I was getting dragged and was quickly brought down to the grass. Guess God said, lady you'll need to touch some grass now.
"Geez! Can't I just have a moment of peace!?" I groaned as I sat up glaring at the others specifically at the people who dragged me into this mess. "Why don't you just play for the first time? You're the only one who doesn't even play tag at least once" Ray said as he sat underneath the tree.
"Why don't YOU also play huh! I'm not the only one who doesn't like to play!" I stated as he just looked at me and said "I prefer to read." "AND YOU THINK I DON'T!?" I yelled.
He just looked back at his book and ignored me as I facepalmed in disappointment "Oh barbatos help me keep my sanity from this people. I can feel my blood pressure running high and my sanity saying bye bye" I stated as I shook my head.
"Why don't you try it just for once?" Norman asked as he held out a hand to help me stand up. "Yeah no thanks, I rather sleep my problems away and go off to Dreamland than run around and get tired." I said as I left his hand hanging and layed on the grass.
"Don't lay on the grass, your clothes will get dirty. You're not the one doing the laundry this week" Gilda says as she sat down to my level and pushed me up to sit.
I groaned as I scratched my head in annoyance and grabbed Norman's hand to stand up as he smiled. "Alright alright, let's just get this started" I sighed as I stood up and got the others cheering.
The game started and Norman was 'it' I just ran into the forest not even trying to win 'I just want to sleep, if I just lose I'll be able to get my sleep' That was my goal, to lose and get sleep. 
Cause I know that I won't be getting any of that once I face reality. Well~ that was until a certain green haired girl decided to threaten me. Gilda walked towards me and whispered "if you get caught in the first moments you're not getting your candy stock from me" I quickly put my hand on my chest as I looked at her in a look of betrayal.
"Gosh Gilda! How could you!" I complained but she just ignored me and erased her footprints and ran away. "Guess I really do have to try now?" I groaned as I climbed up a tree and jumped to another one.
I'm too lazy to remove my footprints so not touching the ground will prevent Norman from tracking me down. I quickly got into the highest tree and got to the top.
'Norman might find me here, but this game we're playing is tag. Not hide and seek. He will have to reach me here if he wants to get me' I thought as I sat down. I watched the others from the top of the tree and quietly observed them.
I knew that patterns of the wind change when someone is hiding so let us trick Norman to give us more time. While I was watching, I saw Norman trip over a branch as I silently chucked.
Emma quickly got down from her hiding spot and helped the boy, but Norman betrayed her by fooling her and tagging her. "I- UGH! So rude!" Emma complains as she walks out of the forest as Norman just laughs.
'Welp here we go~' I thought as Norman went near the tree I was hiding and stopped to observe his surroundings. I quickly changed the wind pattern to clockwise as he turned to the left and went there. The fact that he was confident of his observation was already a comedy.
'HAH! GOTCHA!' I thought as I sniffed a laugh, after a solid minute I changed the pattern again to its original pattern as I saw him stop. If I didn't restrain myself I'd be laughing my *ss off right now.
'oh my gosh! He looks so stupid right now! A rare sight of the smartest kid being a total idiot HAHAHA! He doesn't realize that someone is playing tricks on him!' I thought as I watched him go back to my direction.
And when he reached the spot below the tree I was hiding in I quickly changed the patterns again back to clockwise as he just stood there, confused. 'BRUH- HAHAHAHAHA HIS FACE RIGHT NOW- PRICELESS WOOO' I thought as I had a silent celebration in my head.
I saw Ray walk in front of him as he put a hand on the confused Norman, "hey. Times up. You lost, wow." Ray said as he showed his pocket watch to Norman.
"I guess sometimes the patterns really are tricky" Norman admitted defeat and sighed "huh? What do you mean by that?" Ray asked 
"My observation is that she was there but then the pattern changed and moved back here. Then when I got here it changed again" he explained as Ray looked at him with a confused look.
"I have no idea how that is possible but whatever," he said as he was about to walk away "hello there~" I jumped down from the tree as Norman stood there, shocked.
"So you were up there all along?" Norman asked, dumbfounded "mhm, honestly I didn't even want to put any effort but Gilda placed my candy stock on the line so I had too. She's too evil" I said with a tired voice.
"Taking advantage of Norman's lack of physical strength?" Ray stated as he looked at the tree that I came from, "sometimes, others forget that this is a game of tag and not hide and seek, and tend to think too much" he explained as I just yawed.
"You, knowing that Norman isn't physically strong, took that as an advantage. So even if he did know that you were up there, he wouldn't be able to catch you as he can't climb a tree that high" he said as both boys looked at me.
"Exactly, the others are easy to express their thoughts through actions. They're too easy to read" I pointed out as I started to walk back.
------------------
"First person to win against you, it was more than worth it to see that someone that had only played for the first time beated you" Ray said, chuckling as I sighed with a smile.
"Why are you saying that to me? I should be the one saying that to you. " I teased, giving him a light punch on his arm.
"I guess I'm impressed? I mean she scores the same level as us, so no need to expect less from her. She's not like Emma anyways." Ray said as we started to walk back.
"She just proved that she isn't like Emma, at all" Ray added but in a low voice but I still managed to hear it.
"Seems to get your interest I see" I teased as we reached the others.
'It seems more than just that'
