Sweet as Sugar

"That's really silly" Mu agreed

"Was there any silly stuff like that at the circus?" asked Melly.

"Nothing that silly" Mu replied

"Like what?" answered Melly.

"Clowns. Folk tails. Stuff like that. It was different everytime" Mu shrugged

"Clowns are supposed to be silly," said Melly. "That's their job."

"Our clowns were idiots." Mu replied.

"That's a mean thing to say," said Melly.

"Well they were. They were mean to everybody and made fun of all the little kids" Mu stated

"That's not nice," said Melly. "Clowns are supposed to make you laugh. Though I know quite a few people who are scared of them."

"Ours were hardly ever silly" Mu stated

(Sorry I'm slow, computer froze plus I'm eating)

(no prob)

"Then they should have been fired," said Melly.

"Edwin used them for the act. They were good when they needed to be" Mu sighed

"Oh," Melly replied. "Why were they so mean?"

Mu shrugged. "Summer said they were always like that"

"I don't understand people who are naturally mean," said Melly.

"Me either" Mu smiled lightly.

"There are some people who act mean because of something that happened to them though," added Melly. "Those people can be nice if you can figure out how to help them."

Mu nodded with a small smile.

(Meh is happeh. Meh has ribs :D)

(Meh has homework to do later >_<. But meh also has a birthday on Saturday :D)

"We should be getting to the village soon," remarked Melly. "It's starting to get dark."

Mu looked to the sky. "Are you sure about the village?" he asked

"Yeah, I usually stop there," said Melly. "Maybe we've being going slower since we've been talking."

"Or cause of our bath" Mu reminded her

"That too," replied Melly. She peered into the distance. "...Ah, there it is! Still a ways away though."

Mu glanced down at her. "Want a ride the rest of the way?" He asked with a little grin
