because of Joseph and his niceness and his descriptions of how
people used to live? But there was no more time to think of that as
Diego then suddenly remembered Joseph and so his own health
project. He let out another large sigh identical to the one he did in
the morning although he did not feel as bad about the prospect of
meeting Joseph again for some reason. Some strange feelings
He went to the lunch canteen which is currently serving dinner and
finds Joseph sitting at the same table from earlier.

“How’s your maths,” Diego asks rather nicely which is
something even Diego himself is not so used to.

“Well, not so good, I can’t do any of these problems, and
these problems, and these and these,” says Joseph casually.
“Okay, let me help you, here this is how you do number 1…”
The maths tutoring session went on for about 30 minutes until
Diego says “Okay, put away your textbooks, copy down these
questions and do them. I will go to the toilet for a second.” Diego
headed to the bathroom, confident that Joseph had learned of
what he taught and would perfectly master the test about synthetic
divisions and absolute numbers. He is gone for a good 10 minutes
and then returns to the table only to find that what Joseph wrote on
his paper is not about synthetic divisions at all nor does it has to do
with absolute values. Joseph is actually doodling a comic stip on
his maths paper.

“What are you doing?!” Diego angrily asks.

“Drawing of course!” Joseph answers with his unique and
iconic smile.
