Taryn hummed lightly to herself while flipping through a magazine. It had nothing in it, but pictures of celebrities, and the latest gossip. True, that she couldn't read, but surely she wasn't picking up anything good from the pictures.
Dia, meanwhile was taking a much needed shower. With Squishler and Miylin gone, she only had one person to worry about. And Taryn, was usually no trouble when she's left alone.

Flitch wondered around beyond his neighborhood by himself, it was the first time. Nychii was at home studying for that 'Finals' of hers, she kind of waved him away when he asked so he assumed it was a yes. He continued down a few streets and an allyway, finally the strange houses came to an end and he stood in front of one he vaguely remembers although he wasn't sure when or where he had seen it.
Walking up to a nearby window, he stood on his tippy-toes and peeked in and saw someone he knew. No wonder he recognized this house, it's Taryn's! He managed to reach out a hand and knock on the glass frame then fell back. Getting back up, he jumped up and down waving his arms, "Hello?"

(( Ehh, Taryn was in up a tree outside Aylee's house, but I can change that XDD ))
Taryn's eyes darted to the front door as she anxiously made her way over to it. Who could this be? They weren't expecting any visitors. Just as she swung the door open, Dia's voice echoed through from the bathroom.
"TARYN? DON"T OPEN THE DOOR WITHOUT LOOKING THROUGH THE WINDOW!", she shouted. She told Taryn this over and over again.
Taryn eye's widened as she hurriedly, placed a hand over Flitch's mouth and with the other signaled him to be quiet. She always forgot.
"I DID MOM! IT FLITCH AT DOOR...CAN I OPEN?", she shouted back.
"SURE!", was Dia's reply.
Taryn turned to Flitch with a grin, and finally held her arms open wide.
"What you doing here?", she asked.

((Yea...I knew, I meant to add something about Dia but forgot XD oh well, and Flitch was knocking on the window...))
Flitch watch Taryn running over to the door, by the time she was there he was waiting for her to open up. The route stayed firmly in his head, he'll know the way back when he needs to leave.
As Taryn opened the door, Flitch made ready to say hello but was cut off with a shout from some rooms in front. Apparently, it was Dia...Flitch wasn't quite sure where although he could tell that the door was closed as Taryn shouted back with a hand over his mouth muffling his greeting. Once the okay was given from the guardian, he was able to breathe safely.
Hugging Taryn, he answered her question, "...breaking in." Then laughed at his own joke, "I actually don't know. I got here by walking down three blocks, turning down an allyway, then turning left, continuing straight and..." He looked up at the ceiling thoughtful after he left go of Taryn, "I think that's it..."

(( Oh XD I was just confused, but whatever ))
Dia giggled at Flitch's response. "You so silly! You walk all by yourself? Wow.. my mom won't ever let me do that", she commented while placing her hands on her hip.
"She think I'm baby". Her face wrinkled up at this last part. Realizing that she was probably being rude, she stepped back so that Flitch could enter if he wanted to.

((you wrote Dia XD))
Flitch giggled at Taryn's face placing a hand over his mouth as to not appear rude. "Mommy's busy, when she's like that, she doesn't really notice anything. As long as I get back before she notices." Which I normally do, Flitch thought to himself smugely. He had memorized his neighborhood and some of the surrounding areas, he couldn't possibly get lost, at least he hopes.
As Taryn stepped aside, Flitch wondered in and remembered the spot where Nychii had falled and gotten a bloody nose. He grinned, then turned around to face Taryn, "So what you wanna do?"

(( XD Whhhoops, lol ))
Taryn nodded to show that she understood. "Tch, Dia always watching me. Watch me too much. You lucky".
She turned to stare down the hallway, before facing Flitch again and frowning. "I don't know.. We can go in playroom?", she offered. "It have toys, cool books, and t.v. Or we can go play on jungle gym outside"
The toddler didn't really care about what they would end up doing. She was just happy to have someone to play with. He was the only real Sin'aeis that she had managed to have fun with since she became a toddler. Her sisters were both out at dance class. She would have joined them, had she not had two left feet.

Flitch wiggled his ears, it seemed more amusing to be outside then inside. Asides from that, he'd never seen a jungle gym before although he's heard of them in books. Everything he knows and had experienced are in books. Which reminded him that he was suppose to teach Taryn to read or else Kilah might beat him up or something...
Well, he didn't really want to read at the moment, opening his mouth and then closing it repeating this fish like gesture a few times as he decided. Finally, he managed to say something instead of looking as though he was gawking, "...do you want to read or playoutside?" Playing outside seemed interesting but then reading was a lot of fun too! Imagining the story makes it really fun. That's why he enjoyed books so much afterall.

Dia watched Flitch trying to decide, and couldn't help but laugh a bit. He made the oddest facest.
"Sorry", she sputtered before relaxing herself. "Um.. we can play outside, and the come inside later if you want. It not going to stay light out forever", she reasonded.
And as though that confirmed everything, she led the way to the back of the house. On her way to the backdoor, she shouted that she was going outside with Flitch. She didn't want Dia to go worrying or anything.
It was bright and sunny day which made the idea to go outside even better. The backyard was a decent size for running around. However, it wasn't to be considered 'huge'. To the left was Dia's bed of flowers. On the right was the jungle gym and sandbox. Behind that was pretty much nothing, aside from an old kid size patio table with chairs.
She eagerly skipped ahead to the slide. "Come on!"

Flitch raised an eyebrow. What was Taryn laughing at? he wondered but didn't put too much thought into it as she decided that they should play outside and then come back in. "Yea! If that's okay with you, that's fine with me." Then the rest of the trip in the house was getting to the back door. This new setting was interesting and he observed all of the surroundings as he followed Taryn.
Finally they made it outside, the sun was still up high and shinning brightly. The rain boardcast that he had seen was completely off. He quickly glanced by the flower bed onto the jungle gym and sandbox. The park Nychii took him had a sandbox but not a jungle gym, it was the first time he'd deen one.
He ran after Taryn to the slides and smiling as he climbed to the top of the ladder. "I'm the King of the...Jungle!" he said it dramatically when he reached the top of the slides, the highest point on the whole jungle gym. He the did a series of mimicked goreilla sounds from some cartoon he had seen and laughed at his own attempt.

"Well then.. if you King of the jungle",Taryn said as she ran quickly to his side. "..Then I Prince- Er, Queen!", She had been referring to herself for so long as a princess that she almost forgot that it wasn't so high in royal standards.
She then bent over and pointed at Flitch while laughing. "I queen.. but I not no monkey like you!", she exclaimed before giving him a playful push, and sliding down the slide.
"Wheeeew", she squealed with both arms held up towards the sky.

Flitch considered and grinned, "I'm no monkey...I don't have a tailllll...." Taryn had pushed him, only gently but it tipped his balance a bit and he landed on his butt and he slid down the slide backwards waving his arms around frantically.
Thump. Flitch landed in the softsand box at the end of the slide. Hearing Taryn coming down, he tried to get back up and move out but it was too late. Another Thump followed by an "ow" could be heard muffled by the sand.

Taryn didn't even notice, poor Flitch, untill she was seconds away from landing. Had she had time to react, she would have hopped over the side of the slide or something.
"AHHH!", she shrieked before she landed right atop of him. Surprisingly, her first reaction wasn't her normal giggles. Rolling over to her side, she stared at Flitch, and have him a soft poke.
"Oops... you okay?", she asked while wincing as though feeling his pain.

Flitch layed there face first for a second longer, then quickly pushed himself up coughing up sand while laughing, which made the coughing worse than before. He looked like some crazy sand dude with little brown, gray and yellow dots all over his face and hair, but only for a momemt. He frantically brushed as much as he could off of himself and coughed up the rest of the sand.
Although the experience wasn't the most pleasant, he found it oddly amusing and somewhat fun. Quickly getting back up he pointed to the jungle gym, "Come on...erm, Queen! Let's do it again!"

Taryn eyed him curiously, before shrugging. He looked fine enough to her. "Okay.. but this time, try to land on your feet", she teased with a slight chuckle.
She ran back up to the slide, stuck her tongue out, and crossed her eyes tauntingly at Flitch, before pushing herself down it. Her landing was much more graceful this time. She bounced quickly to her feet, and turned to watch Flitch.
