Ellaโs head rose from where she was brooding over a book Benjamin had given her. It was math and the little girl had never done that before, so she felt like she was completely failing at this. When the world had ended, school had still been in the distant future for her, so everything she knew now had either been taught to her by her family, or she learned it on her own. Luckily she was able to read very well, so she wasnโt entirely stupid - but all of these numbers didnโt really make any sense to her.ย
โIโm not. I donโt understand anythingโ, she said with a frustrated sigh, putting her pen down. Naturally she could count; she could add and subtract, but aside from that nothing else seemed relevant.ย โCan we do another subject now? Itโs getting dark outside.โ And that meant she would retreat back into the woods, because she hadnโt quite committed to staying inside the walls yet. Being surrounded by other people was nice for a change, but Ella was so used to her own ways by now, that giving up her freedom was hard. Benjamin didnโt push too hard, though, and had accepted the fact that she came and went as she pleased for the time being.
