He leads me into his tent. He walks over to Octa's cage and lifts the cloth off of it. A huge colorful spider crawls towards the front of the cage.
  I walk over "wow...." I mutter "she's beautiful."
   "Not as beautiful as you " he says softly.
  I chuckle, "smooth."
  I look back at Octa who sticks one of her legs out of the cage. I gently touch her furry leg. Her hairs were so soft.
  "We will be having a show tomorrow night. I do not know if Mr.Tall will want you to help out, but if he does not need your help... I would love for you to assist me in the performance."
   I drew my hand away from Octa. I kept my gaze on the huge spider. I knew Octa was a deadly venomous spider, but I also knew that Larten wouldn't let anything bad happen to me. I turn to him, smile and nod.
  "As long as Mr.Tall doesn't need me, I will be at your service."
