Nadine Book 2

137. Failed

The next morning we play some more. He ends up getting 2 fingers in me but it really hurts. So he stretches me out with his fingers some more then we make love as humans.

We get in the shower after and wash each other.

"I'm sorry."

"Don't be sorry. I love that you're trying. We'll get there. I just don't want to stretch you to much in 1 day. That will hurt you."

I turn around and hug him. "I love you."

"I love you too. I'll stretch that pretty little furball more in a day or 2. You need to rest and heal slow. We have no need to rush."

I smile and we finish showering. Then we get dressed and go to Dipak's office. We sit down as everyone else piles in too.

Dipak stands up after a minute. "We have our results."

He looks at Frode and Frode stands up. "93% of the village can't read at a basic level. Which was level 4. 95% can't write anything. 92% do not know basic math. 84% can not tell time to the nearest 10 minutes. 94% can not read a map. 48% can not fish. 64% can not garden. 82% can not hunt. 88% can not trap. 70% can not start a fire."

I put my hand up to stop him. "Just stop. We're moving forward with the school and none of us are going to remember you reading all those numbers. Can you just post that somewhere."

"Of course."

I nod and look at everyone. "Yep. Let's design the school."

Dipak nods. "We have your and Luke's test results."

"How did I do?"

He opens the envelop and nods.

Marcus opens Luke's and starts nodding. "Luke tested out on about every skill."

Dipak walks to me and gives me the top paper out of my stack.

Thora looks at it. "How the hell did you fail reading?"

Everyone cracks up laughing. I just shake my head. "I thought I did fine."

Dipak smiles at me. "I have all the notes. You passed reading up until the 10th level. The instructor felt he couldn't pass you at that level because you couldn't stay focused on the article and give clear answers. It wasn't that you couldn't read it. You just weren't understanding it and he felt it would do you good to take that class. Just the 10th level. Not all of it."

"That makes sense. It was boring and really technical."

Thora nods. "Well you did say Frode level document for the 10th year."

I nod. "That's where I messed up. What else did I fail?"

"Map reading."

Dipak nods and gets the paper. "That was just a total fail. Which way is north woman?"

I point at his desk. They all start laughing.

He shakes his head. "Not even close."

"You failed grocery shopping and cooking." I nod. "Grocery shopping has meal prep included in it though. You don't cook or do any of that."

Dipak looks at me. "Instructor for shopping said you passed the market and grocery section but failed on the meal planning. You just don't know what goes in dishes or what all you need to cook them. Cooking failed because you can only cook meat. But that part was done correctly. You passed parts of both of them. Just not enough to clear the class."

Coral smiles. "Not bad for a princess."

"You failed, tools, knife skills, carving, wood working, building, furniture building, repairs, paying bills, sports, trapping, hunting, vampire powers 4, band, you passed song though, and last failed was cooking for the arts."
