You thought it was just as simple as when he asked you to make that accident up for him? His aura gave you halo-halo dessert vibes. There were a variety of signs that he might be kind or that he was too high on the mountain.

It might get worse as time passed.

You felt pale. Neither your parents nor your tía should know about how you dealt with your first college in Encanto.

Well, you were now in your class; almost the time will be dismissed, and you could see Camilo in his uniform, leaning against the doorframe and grinning mischievously because he couldn't wait for you to...

"Be like my servant, sí?" Camilo asked. His tone is a bit demanding. Anyway, you hoped it was not that he was too bossy, yet it looked like it was only in your dreams.

He snapped his fingers, trying to get your attention. "As in, you will do anything I ask for, whether the task is easy or difficult, but you're only doing this because you want to make your mistake up for me, and I was really mad that stuff had happened," he added. Was he like a noble or anything? We know he is a Madrigal. Was he taking advantage of it? You still wonder.

"No," you defended. "I mean, it was my little fault, so everything is fine for me." You nodded, and Camilo grinned again, satisfied with your answer.

"Bueno. So shall we start now?" Camilo asked, still keeping his sly smirk on his face.

"Yes," you replied.

"Good, good. Come, follow me," Camilo ordered as he continued to walk in the direction of the garden, and you just followed. A soft sigh flowed out of your lips.

"What happened here?" you asked, tilting your head as you saw how wrecked the garden was. The bushes looked like they were eaten by the wild animals in a certain area of the garden, and the area is bald; what is left is the soil.

"My friend and I played a prank, and he bought a substance that he had made for his experiment earlier, and we planned to throw it on the ground so we could see the reaction of the students there without us noticing. Unfortunately, the professor saw us, so... We're both punished for fixing this mess without asking Isabela," he explained, and you looked at him in disbelief. Seriously, even in here?

"Look, almost everyone looked dull, and I have to do that." Camilo nervously chuckled. "So you will fix it for me, right?" he added.

You sighed before answering. "Right, I will," you replied.

"Great. You're doing a good job already, and I'm gonna," he muttered as he slowly walked away from you, "stay here. Hidden somewhere to watch you," he continued as he hid in the bush.

"There are no people here to see you, Camilo," you commented. "Mosquitoes will only suck your blood there," you added.

"See? Even mosquitoes are attracted to me," he stated as he adjusted himself in the bush. "Aren't you attracted to me yet?" he asked as he looked at you, but you were already far away from his hiding spot. You got a shovel and dug up the bald area. Then, you put the grass seed in and watered it, and you also removed the unpleasant sight of bushes with tools.

"Will this give you a lesson?" you exclaimed enough for him to hear from a distance.

"Uh, maybe." He snickered.

You continued watering the grass until you were satisfied. Then you got up and brought back the tools you used to their places.

A few moments later, you came back to the garden and looked at Camilo's hiding spot, but it's a different person who is hiding. It looked more like a professor at this school.

"Professor?" you mumbled, still uncertain if that was the person. You walked closer to the bush, and you could notice the professor grinning. Surely, you were familiar with that grin.

"Okay, Camilo." You exhaled. "It's you." You chuckled.

"Yeah, just double my disguise." He shrugged his shoulders and smiled as he saw your reaction.

"What's the next task, by the way?" you asked, changing the subject.

"Oh? You're already active at these tasks, huh?" He smirked as he walked out of his hiding spot, still in the form of a different professor.

"That's what I have to do." You quivered your lips.

"Great, great. I've listed them in my mind." He playfully winked as he continued to walk and gestured for you to follow him. You two were going out of school already, and it was time to do the town tasks.

As you two got out of the school, he shifted into his original form as he kept his grin on his face. That mischievous grin. You were not sure if he was planning something bad or if that was him already.

"Since we've been exhausted for the whole day, let's make ourselves more exhausted," Camilo commented, nodding at himself. He looked just as proud of what he suggested.

"The tasks?"

"Them? I still have a donkey job left to do for Señor Tiago," he replied as he walked in the other direction, leading the path on the way to his farm. "You'll do them for me, and no worries, I'll tell you how to work on them," he continued as you followed behind him.

You didn't want to ask questions about that for now. Your questions might trigger him. Anyway, you haven't known him that well. You reminded yourself that you'd have to be careful what you said or even asked someone.
