Many weeks have gone by since I tried to change my reputation to the guys. Which was, of course, a success since kids are easy to trick. However, now Neige has been a lot kinder towards me than ever. Which I guess I can live with, well almost can live with, and now my days have been just vitsting and staying over with the dwarfs and Neige place then almost helping them out with anything they need just as long it interest me but at least the guys tries to help me with my human speech. However, I believe it's going to be a long journey until I can properly speak like everybody else, and today was obviously not going to be any different. So, with my new outfit that I obviously stole from the nearest village.

I went to the dwarfs and Neige house, and it was just a regular day as I tried to help with Snick with wheezing and sneezing to napkins as Dominic and Grum cook up some warm soup for Snick to drink on while Timmy was trying his hardest to help them, Shelpie was asleep in his bed. Then Neige, Hop, and Toby came in with what it looks to be a box of books.

"Look what I found, guys! A bunch of more books! I found these books outside that said 'Donations,' meaning that these books are free!" Neige said as if you can't literally steal those books, like there are just books. Neige, Hop, and Toby drop the books on the living room and rampage through the books, seeing the many different types of books they have. I saw a book that caught my eye that had a spider symbol on it. I cleaned out Snick nose before I could move towards the book. I looked at the tilte of the book, which was named 'Spider and the Women', that sounded quite interesting for me to want to read it.

"Keys, did you find a book that interests you?" Hop asked with the regular nickname that the dwarfs and Neige gave me ever since I became friends with them, anyways back to the question on hand which of course I know that he was only saying that out of the kindest of his heart but that the world's most dumbest question. Of course, it caught my eye me, dummy. So I opened the book to the first page and read it. As Hop somehow invited himself to read along aside with me. So both me and Hop were flipping through the pages of this story with Snick sneezing and wheezing in the background as noises as Dominic and Grum feed Snick with the warm soup. Well, isn't that a great background noise to read with. However, through the wheezing and sneezing, my eyes widened by the fact that this woman was cursed to be a spider by the goddess and forever weaving her webs, which, of course, I could relate since I weave webs. However, there was something I couldn't relate to, nor do I understand why the goddess cursed the women to be a spider when she lost the weaving competition unfair which she should have won fair and square. That was just unfair and made no sense at all. She was better at weaving than the goddess because the story did showed beautiful drawings of her weaves and her shaming on the gods and goddesses for their sins, however she didn't win because goddess have punished her just because her weave depicted the gods and goddesses sins were exposed to the public because they were all powerful and mighty but also cursed her because she went against the goddess which the story was siding with the goddess since it was a sin to go against a goddess. However, I'm just glad that the cursed women showed the true colors of the gods and goddesses and it showed how the goddess couldn't stand the fact that her weave wasn't perfect unlike the cursed women and she probably the first female mortal to be shaming on the goddess and gods with her perfect skills of weaving, and when we're on the last page of book, I looked over to Hop to see how he was digesting this story, and well, he doesn't look like he was holding it very well.

"Jeepers, this story is so sad, I feel so bad for the cursed women. She doesn't deserve such a sad fate like this." Hop was just straight sobbing over the story while I maybe understand. However, this story was just a nonfiction story. The story was completely biased. The only truth about this story is that the goddess cursed the mortal women to forever be a spider and weave her webs forever, but they didn't talk about the cursed women actually winning the weaving competition the goddess brutally beating up the women because she was jealous and angered about the fact her weave won even though her weaves depicted the goddesses and gods being sinful and her huge ego couldn't stand it and shred her weave and after the humiliation she hang herself. The goddess just couldn't stand the thought of her without her suffering even more since the goddess lost, so she cursed the women to be a spider, but I know that wouldn't matter now. That was thousands of years ago. However, I'll always be reminded of how I was made since I always have dreams of becoming a human on day.

"Go wipe, Hop." I told Hop, which I'm glad that the dwarfs and Neige can understand my fucking bad language speech of mines. So Hop got some napkins and wiped his tears while I flipped the last page of the story, then that was when my eyes widened from shock. I saw a shredded piece of the first and original women who was cursed to be a spider, and even if it was just a small piece of the original weave, it looks absolutely beautiful, I was completely memorized by the piece of weave which even now I could actually understand why the goddess was jealous of the woman weave. So before any could see what I have, I pocketed it somewhere in my clothes so that nobody else could have it nor see it. It should be only for the eyes of a true insect-demihuman, which whenever I did look at the back of the story and the piece of the weave, it gave me a new passion that even I didn't know that I could have but also it made me admired the women in a way that I could relate to her because I could see myself also challenging a goddess into a weaving competition and getting punished for something I love to do. Secondly, is that her weave just looks gorgeous, and I wonder if I could also do the same just like her. I wondered if she would ever be proud of me if I followed her footsteps or whatever her reaction was going to be if I did, and as I fucking talking to myself in my mind like a fucking weirdo that I am that was before Neige Interrupted my fucking inner dialog.

"Hey Keys, would you like to join us for lunch?" Neige asked as if I would ever pass on food. FOOD of all things I would ever pass on, like, of course, I would like to join you on fucking lunch.

"Yes, Ne-ne. I like to join also." I fucking hate my speech and I hate how I can't speak properly unlike everybody else and it makes me embarrassed every time I fucking speak out of my fucking mouth. However, lunch was good even though it wasn't quite filling for me until everybody else, but my mind always traced back to the piece of weave, which made me think of I should follow her passion before I could die of course no shit. So maybe tomorrow or whenever I fucking feel motivated to understand more of the passion of weaving and texture.
