"Oooh~ Alain, you never told me you were a girl! A mother,
nonetheless!" Ellis said, trying to lighten the mood in the dull,
depressing hospital room. But honestly, she had to agree. She'd
only been her two days and all this had happened.
”Hello There! I am Alter Ego, your
technological guide!"
"Would a girl have a-" I was about to finish my sentence
but before I could there was a knock on the door, and a nurse came
into the room. "Oh, I didn't know you had guests." she smiled. Kain
didn't say anything since he was playing a game on his
phone.
Ellis looked to the door, seeing the nurse. She waved, before
poking Kain. She motioned for him to say hi to the nurse, or at
least acknowledged her. She looked at Alain to see if he would say
anything, but looked back at the window, somehow finding it really
interesting.
”Hello There! I am Alter Ego, your
technological guide!"
Kain looked over at Ellis and put his phone away, "How are
you feeling, Alain?" the nurse asked. "I'm feeling good, unless you
count the throbbing pain in my back." I replied, she nodded
"Alright, I was just checking in on you. When you were in the
operation room we couldn't get some of the glass out of your back,
it was deeply wedged in there. So that might be the cause of the
pain, I have to report back, so goodbye." the nurse left the room.
"Do you have a fascination of windows or am I just going crazy?" I
asked Ellis jokingly.
Ellis' attention snapped back to Alain, and she grinned. "No, I
just saw birds messing around, and it was kinda funny." She said,
shaking her head softly. "Anyway, what were you saying? You got cut
off when the nurse came in..." She asked, tilting her head in
confusion, and it looked pretty freaking adorable, even though she
just wanted to show him she was confused.
”Hello There! I am Alter Ego, your
technological guide!"
"Uh.. it's nothing.. nothing really exciting." I replied
quickly "You sure you weren't a cat in your past life?" I smiled
"Heck you even got the cute little hat." I added. "Maybe she'll be
reincarnated into a cat, you never know." Kain said. "I'll take
notes, thanks Kain." I said "No problem." he replied.
"Well I always like to say I'm half cat, and no one really doubts
it. Soooo I probably was a tiny little kitten~ Ya know, they say a
cat has nine lives, but they never say if it is always a cat in
every life~" Ellis purred, smiling. She laughed a little, putting
her hand over her mouth.
”Hello There! I am Alter Ego, your
technological guide!"
"I don't see why they'd doubt it." I replied and laid back
down on the hospital bed, "Why're you putting a hand over your
mouth? Your acting like Kain when he forgot to return his library
book." I said. "Hey, that's enough about me." Kain said.
"Sometimes I snort laugh, so I cover my mouth, just in case." Ellis
said, bringing her tan hand away from her lips. She still had a
smile plastered on them, showing her awkwardly sharp teeth as the
top ones poked over her bottom ones.
”Hello There! I am Alter Ego, your
technological guide!"
"Oh.. well.. if you want to hide it I guess that's fine,
but I don't really mind." I told her, "Same here, I mean, it's that
embarrassing. And embarrassing is me and Alain's life. We won't
laugh." Kain added.
"Meh, I just feel weird when others hear it. I sound like a hyena
killing a pig. It's funny, but kinda nasty and weird at the same
time." Ellis said with a small shrug, letting a small and soft sigh
into the air.
”Hello There! I am Alter Ego, your
technological guide!"
"Oh, well that's fine. But does the pig squeal before or
after it dies? And some hyenas hunt in packs, they're basically
like glorified coyotes." I told Ellis "They've been known to drive
off lions from their kill." I added. "Thanks Doctor Dolittle." Kain
sneered, giving me a hard time.
"Oh my lord, you are such a nerd~! I guess that's what happens when
you're a veterinary medical student~." Ellis said, shaking her head
as her hair fanned out around her at the head movement. She smiled
in amusement at the two, eyes twinkling.
”Hello There! I am Alter Ego, your
technological guide!"
"Jeez, thanks guys. What good friends you turned out to
be." I said sarcastically "And there's nothing wrong with being a
vet, I like animals, you like acting out words. Do you plan on
acting in commercials or plays in an auditorium?" I asked out of
curiosity. Kain on the other hand was listening in on the
conversation.
"Never said there was anything wrong with it! But I personally
prefer plays, since commercials don't really have much value to me.
I mean, people just skip them or mute them anyway." Ellis said,
shrugging as she stated her opinion on the question.
”Hello There! I am Alter Ego, your
technological guide!"
"That's true. I don't watch a whole lot of TV though, never really
interests me. I game on my free time." I said. "And reads." Kain
added. "Yes Kain, I read too." I grinned.
"Pfft, you sound like the guy version of me, to be honest. The only
type of TV I watch would be Netflix." Ellis said truthfully,
snickering at the fact that Alain was exactly like me, only
he was a guy, and slightly older. Slightly, mind you.
”Hello There! I am Alter Ego, your
technological guide!"
"I'm a Hulu man, but I don't mind watching Netflix." I told
Ellis. "Yeah, when we don't have anything to do we watch shows
together." Kain said "Yeah, buttery popcorn for the win." I grinned
like a huge dork.
"Ooooh, what's one of your favorite shows~?" Ellis asked, crossing
her legs and tilting her head, bouncing up and down. She looked
like such a nerd, any popular girl would have found it revolting.
Maybe because by now she was giggling... aaand she just snorted.
”Hello There! I am Alter Ego, your
technological guide!"
"He forces me to watch nature documentaries." Kain said to
Ellis "Forces?" I raised an eyebrow, my huge grin still plastered
on my face. "And River Monsters, but that show is actually pretty
cool." Kain said admiringly "Yeah, who doesn't love a fresh-water
detective and mass bloodshed?" I added.
