Charming genie (We want out)

Y/n's pov

Today again, we had to walk to the oasis. I don't care for me but the others seem so tired, I pity them. This is still weird for me. It doesn't feel like Riddle's ex tyranny, something feels wrong...

"I think I've got a whole desert's worth of sand in my throat. Kalim, gimme some water!" Grim panted.

"How DARE you take that tone with me. I am not your faucet. If you want water, draw it from the oasis yourselves."

The others started complaining so I took matters in my own hands. "Let's try this. Oasis maker!"

Rain poured out just like the one Kalim summoned the first time.

"Woah, Genie, you can use Kalim's unique magic?" Jamil was surprised.

'Genie? Me?' "Unique magic doesn't have any meaning to me."

"Thank you so much!" The students thanked me.

"If only we had a different housewarden... like Jamil."

"Perish the thought. And don't vocalize it. What if Kalim heard you?"

"But it's true!" "Even before Housewarden Kalim started acting like this, you were the one doing most of his duties, Jamil."

"Shhh. It's fine. It's my family's honor actually no, it's MY honor to serve the Asims. Drink your water and rest up. It's getting hotter now that the sun's high in the sky. The march back will only be worse."

"Jamil..."

"All students, assemble! Break time is now over. Form ranks, and no lollygagging!" Kalim shouted.

"Jamil, I... I can't take another day like this." "I'm done following the housewarden, too!" "Why are you still obeying him, Jamil?!"

"It's because... He's Kalim Al-Asim."

"'Cause you've always been bond to him?" I asked.

"That's... one reason. Let's have a talk tonight. I'll arrange things so Kalim doesn't catch us."

At night, Grim already passed out in my arms as we were waiting in the lounge with the other students.

Jamil brewed Kalim a soporific herbal tea. He should be in a deeper sleep than usual.

"I understand that you are all unhappy with how Kalim is running things. Being locked in your dorms over winter break and forced to undergo harsh training day in and day out... Who wouldn't resent such harsh treatment? I agree that what Kalim's doing is not for the best."

"Then why won't you stop him?!" A student asked.

"I have, many times. But he's stopped listening to me."

"Why do y'all keep whining to Jamil? He's human too and must be tired. So how about you grow some guts and talk to Kalim yourselves?" I looked at them.

Jamil hid his smile with his hand.

"Th-that's not true. We HAVE tried to talk to him. Over and over, actually!" "When he's not acting strange, the housewarden really is a broadminded, kindhearted soul..." "Everybody in the dorm used to look up to him before this started happening. We thought we had the finest housewarden in all of Night Raven College."

"When I first enrolled, I had trouble adjusting to dorm life. He lent me a shoulder and let me air it all out." "When I was struggling to keep up in school and ready to drop out, he joined me for late-night cram sessions to catch up." "Sometimes he's a little cavalier and not totally on top of things, but we all loved our housewarden. It was fun being a Scarabia student. And yet..."
