Zenyi and Kenyi

In the next light, my eyes started to open and I saw a shadow of a ghost. I couldn't see their faces as there was bright light behind her. I was frightened badly, but I didn't even have the energy to react. Then I saw another girl who closed the window.

" Why did you close it ? ", She said

I was then able to see that they were two girls of my age, though their race was different. It seemed they were natives of the island.

" Can't you see? She is currently sensitive to light ", said the second girl

 I giggled.

" Why are you laughing? ", asked the first girl

" No, nothing. Sorry ", I murmured

" There is certainly a reason behind it… but I am not interested to know. Anyway I am Kenyi and she is Zenyi ", the first girl said.

" Are you sister and sister… I mean from the same family ? "

" No, it's a coincidence that our names are almost the same but we have no relation at all. We are just besties ", said Kenyi.

" What's your name? ", asked Zenyi

" My name is Anna, I am from England, the big Island where whites lives ", 

" Yeah, we know you are white ",said Kenyi

" You must not have come to this island ",said Zenyi

" Why? ", I asked though I knew

" Foreigner are banned especially those horrible whites, but I know not all mangoes are sour and I hope you are the sweet one ", Zenyi smiled

" Oops we are getting late for the class, see you later ", said Kenyi

" Wait a minute, we must first arrange for her ", Zenyi interrupted.

" Oh yeah, I forgot about it ", 

" So, you will have to wait for two hours, if you need to do your private jobs then do it in that large vase because it is risky to go out now and take this spare key, if you need to go out for an emergency ", Kenyi explained.

She gave me the key and they left by locking the door from inside and jumped out from the window.

I was wondering how they could save me from a quicksand. If they don't even have a brain that they could have locked from outside and then I could move out from the window, it would be better.

Suddenly, the curse came into my mind, which gave me  goosebumps. I tried to remove the thought. I carefully get up and do cleaning, though  I have very low energy so that I could get rid of thinking about the curse.

After a few hours, someone knocked on the door. I thought it was Kenyi and Zenyi so I opened the door but to my surprise it was two strangers. My heart was pumping like wild because of fear.

" Hello, I am Tao. I am sorry to interrupt you but can you please help me to find this address ", he gave me a paper, I could not even read it.

" No, I am sorry, perhaps that neighbor might know, '' I said.

" Thank you ", he said and I immediately slammed the door. I was lucky that they could not recognize me as a white because of my towel which covered my face except for my eyes.

I was almost about to turn back then someone touched me from behind. I yelled in fear. It was Zenyi.

" What were you doing with those men? ",

" I am sorry. I thought it was you. They ask for address ", I apologize

" Be careful! I told you. That's the reason why I have given you the key. We don't have a lock from outside. I thought it would be trouble for you to climb the window ", said Zenyi worriedly.

" I am really sorry ", 

" Don't repeat it again, but… be careful! " , Zenyi emphasized.

I realise it was me who was stupid to judge a person without knowing till the bottom. 

" Wow, the room looks great! ", Kenyi smirked.

" Thanks to me, I cleaned it ",  I said while sitting on the bed.

" How was your class? ", I asked

" You know what. Today sir praised me  for my painting. Obviously nobody can live without praising me after looking at my painting ",Kenyi boasted.

Zenyi stared at her.

" That's great, that means you are a professional painting ", I praised.

" Can you repeat it again ", Kenyi begged.

" That's great ", I repeated.

" No no no, after that ", Kenyi said without a breath 

" You are a professional painter ",  I repeat.

" Repeat…", said Kenyi with pleasure.

" You are a professional painter, '' I repeated again.

" Blaargh ", Zenyi act like vomiting and then said ," Why don't you show your professional painting Mrs professional painter ", 

" Oh sorry, unfortunately I don't make have any painting done by me ", 

" Stop your nonsense and start working. ", Zenyi said.

" Oh wait. We haven't given any food to … onno… to her ", 

" Her name is Anna not Onno ", Zenyi said

I chuckled. They were funny and friendly.

"Wait a minute, let me prepare your breakfast ", Zenyi said and started to make it after a few minutes. She gave me some fruits and some cuisine. 

It was not that good and neither was it bad but it filled my stomach.

They were painting the Kenyi said, " I think we should need to do an another job we are not getting enough money from these, especially these days ",

" You may do another job but not me ",  said Zenyi.

I finished my breakfast and then I looked at their paintings. Zenyi's was kind of ok but Kenyi was not all good but I didn't comment.

" What are you painting? ", I asked.

" You won't understand it's painter's stuff ?", 

I was angry but I suppressed it and I asked for a paper to paint inorder to prove that I was better than her.

" But we have a lack of painting materials ", Zenyi worried.

" Let her do it as a gift to her, '' Kenyi said.

I started painting and then after an hour I completed a portrait of an imaginary person. They were still working on their painting.

" Are you all done? ", I asked.

" No dear. It's painter's stuff you know.  You might think it is easy to paint but it takes a lot of time to just paint a professional painting " , Kenyi said," Well I think you want to show your painting to me to judge it ".

I gave my painting to her and she stammered, " When did you buy this one ? ",

" From my creativity ", I said.

" You mean you painted this one by yourself? ", She asked

" Of course, it was just for fun so my painting might look a bit creepy ".

" Yeah of course….", she muttered 

" Someone's jaw has dropped for sure ", Zenyi joked and stared and looked at my painting and asked " Are you a royal painter? ",

" No, come on… stop praising me. I am a normal painter of England I mean the big island "

" Onna… "

" It's Anna not Oonnnaa, Zenyi interrupted.

" Whatever it may be, language is made to understand each other not to show off…. Anna, can I ask a favor? ", She begged.

" Yeah what is it? ",

" Will you give your painting to me to sell at the market ? ",

" No problem… that's what I do for living ", 

" And can I ask a favour too? ", asked Zenyi.

" Yeah why not ? ",

" Can you teach me to paint? ",

" That's a real painter ",

" I think the arrow had heat me ", said Kenyi..

"Hahaha"

We all laughed.
