You're now out out of your room and dressed for the day. You're sitting on a table beside a pool in a disorderly designed, yet aesthetically pleasing villa. On the table there are various fruits and breads and pancakes and eggs. On your one side there's Mike consuming a normal amount of food in an elegant manner, on the other side is Mohammed with a huge plate of food. You feel slightly jealous that Mohammed has the ability to eat that much. However, your plate is empty. You consider having a food strike and demanding to see Murdoc or you wont eat, but then realise nobody would care. So you gather some food from the table and eat it.

" Where are we taking (f/n) today Mo?" Mike asks Mohammed. Mohammed swallows the food in his mouth and then proceeds to speak.

"Some spa, Paula said it'd be good for her" Mohammed laughs almost mockingly, you roll your eyes.

"Am I going alone?" You ask. Although you don't particularly like Mike or Mohammed you don't want to be alone, you crave to be around people you know and hold on to that.

"Yes why not- Mohammed begins to speak.

"Mohammed and I will come with you" Mike cuts in and looks at Mohammed with a stern look. Mohammed rolls his eyes and sighs.

You then nod and continue to eat.

(1 hour later)

You're now sitting in a salt bath with Mike and Mohammed. You decide to take this opportunity to get to know them and improve this potentially infinite trip.

' So what were you guys doing before this?' You ask. Mohammed then rolls his eyes and gets out of the pool, puts on his robe and walks to the door.

'I'm going for a smoke' Mohammed says in an annoyed voice before leaving. You watch him leave in disgust as you're unsure why he's so rude.

' Don't mind him, Mohammed's a... how do I put this?'

'A cunt'

'Well yeah, when you first meet him. But when he feels comfortable around you, he becomes one of the best people ever.'

'So he's an asshole introvert?'

'I'd say he's just adapted to his job, we have to deal with all sorts of weirdos'

'Like?'

'Well a couple months ago we were assigned protecting this Hungarian princess and she was mental.' Mike laughs softly.

'How?'

'She would always do the weirdest shit. Like, she'd have a goose egg omelette with gooseberry jam, cheese and cereal every day for breakfast. She'd get her chef to mix all the ingredients in a bowl and fry it. And before you ask, no it wasn't a delicacy, she was just a right odd ball'

You laugh as you picture a beautiful and pristine princess eating such a disgusting concoction.

'How long have you been working with Mohammed?'

'Um... 10 years'

'Wow, and you don't get bored of it?'

'No'

'But... is that all you want from life then. Don't you want a family?'

'Well truth be told, before I met Mohammed I had a wife, she was the love of my life. Her name was Jane, she was beautiful, but she passed away and I decided that nobody could replace her, so a wife and family wasn't going to be in my future'

'I'm sorry to hear that'

'It's ok, that's life'

The door then opens and Mohammed enters, followed by the scent of tobacco. Mohammed then plants himself back in the pool. You and Mike watch him as he does.

'Miss me?' Mohammed asks in a sarcastic way. You roll your eyes and smile.

'So what were you guys talking about?' Mohammed asks.

'I was just telling her about the crazy Hungarian princess' Mike says

'What, the one who believed that if she didn't do a hand stand everyday at 12pm, her family would be cursed?' Mohammed asks with a soft laugh.

'Yep' Mike answers with a laugh.

You also laugh, it feels nice to feel something other than sadness. You relax in the spa pool for another few hours and listen to Mike and Mohammed's past adventures and learning more about them, it's a good distraction from missing Murdoc.
