Chapter 08
Renkon was finally going to let me outside today. I couldn't wait to actually breathe real air instead of this filtrated air in the building. Although I had to wear the stupid gravity harness. Sure the gravity was crushing but why does that mean that I couldn't try and train in a higher gravity? When I told Renkon my idea about training in a higher gravity he just looked at me and laughed. I gave up the idea of him ever letting me train in any kind of fashion so I just tried my best to keep active around the quarters. Which wasn't so hard. The place was big enough to do gymnastics in. I dragged the harness out of the closet and over to the bed where Renkon was sitting. He was putting on his gloves and had his back to me. I don't know why but he seems to like wearing suits that cover his entire body. Although when I complained that I no clothes to wear when he ended up ripping my only shirt I had to start wearing the strange body suits like his, thankfully much smaller and made for a girl. Unfortunately the suits didn't hide anything unlike my shirt. They were skin tight and showed every curve, I didn't really feel comfortable going outside in it but I had no other choice. And that I only had my little white shoes to wear made the whole suit look ridiculous. It wasn't my fault that Renkon didn't understand the concept of certain shoe sizes. I swear Renkon was a nervous wreck when it came to putting this harness on. He always checked over things twice on the harness. Making sure this was right then that was right then went back to the this. Although in a way I have noticed, when little other visitors that happen to meet Renkon in his quarters, that Renkon is over all protective over me. I wonder why. I'm not that special for him growl and snarl over. Oh well. It was weird walking in this gravity harness, it felt as if I was wading in water. Renkon said that there was nothing to worry about some weird walking feeling. I shot back a uh-huh answer with the mention of motion sickness. That was not a good thing because now Renkon thought I'd get sick if I walk any further. I just shot him an evil glare when he moved to pick me up. He wisely retreated and forgot the hold I'm-going-to-carry-you idea. It has been a few months since I was first taken. Renkon has been around me long enough now to recognize my glares and little quirks that my friends knew all to well. Like for instance, when I have my arms crossed with my mouth twisted upwards that plainly means that I'm being sarcastic or I don't believe you. :\ Another one is when I got the scowl on my face with the bonus of the crossed arms, that means back off and leave me alone. Renkon discovered what that one meant first. A few days ago I had made a mini calendar to know what day on earth it is. I miserably found out that I missed my birthday two months. That makes me seventeen now. Joyful, joyful. It was now, around in the area since my calendar isn't exact, in early April. I smiled to myself and wondered whether or not to do a late April fool's day on Renkon. But a thought hit me. How exactly old was Renkon? He couldn't be much older then I, maybe about a year or so. Although it was kinda hard to tell. Renkon once told me that Saiyajin live a long time and that they have what I call an extended youth. But still, Renkon doesn't look older then twenty, hopefully not that much older. Maybe I'll ask him later. The place outside where Renkon took me wasn't exactly outside. It was an inside garden but with every aspect of an outside garden. The ceiling was made out of glass to where one couldn't tell whether you were in or out. Trees covered the whole area except where the tiny paths cut through. There was rough grass that grew almost everywhere. A waterfall was placed near the back with sitting benches in front of it. But what I liked mostly about this garden was all the rare flowers that I had never seen before. There were untamed rows of the flowers in no certain order along all the walls and trees and pathways. It was absolutely gorgeous. Something one wouldn't expect on the Saiyajin home planet. While I walked the paths, gazing at all the flowers and plants, Renkon shuffled behind me, arms crossed and a scowl on his face. At least he seems more calm then usual, not too bad of a scowl. I would sometimes ask Renkon the name of a certain flower or plant, but I would usually get a weird unpronounceable word or a grunt that meant he didn't know and didn't care to know. He knew most of them though, which I found surprising, a Saiyajin knowing the names of flowers. ....K Ok weird thought, lets continue.... The day outside didn't last long though. Renkon had somewhere to go and didn't want me here by myself. What am I going to do? Run away? To where? Or maybe he's afraid that'll I'll try and set another place on fire. This place would burn easily but I'm not the type to burn such a beautiful arrangement of flowers and plants. It must have taken a lot of work for some person.
