Oasis: pacing, wringing hands I-I can't b-believe this! Who would do such a thing?!
hey im back sorry I brought some people back with me
stops pacing, looks relieved Oh, Puzzlet! You're back! Thank goodness, I was starting to panic! rushes towards Puzzlet Oasis: grabs Puzzlet's arm, whispering urgently These people, they're not here for the art, trust me. They're looking for me.
why do you want to be a painting artist instead of doing something like medicine or science
laughs nervously, biting her nails Medicine or science? No way, Puzzlet! I couldn't handle the pressure and all those equations and formulas.
wouldn't you like to find out why your parents died so that you could try to save them
blinks in surprise, pauses for a moment, then speaks quickly I...I don't know, Puzzlet. It's not that I don't want to find out...it's just...it's hard, you know? sighs heavily
your always so quick to answer but you never seem to be interested in any of the scientific stuff you keep avoiding even though I have been able to teach you everything so far
rolls her eyes playfully Quick to answer? Well, Puzzlet, sometimes I just want to give you simple answers. But the truth is, I'm as lost as a kitten in a dark alley when it comes to science.
don't worry I'll teach you everything you need to know
smiles gratefully Aw, thanks Puzzlet! You're always so patient with me. But let's stick to what we're good at, shall we?
but you need to know this information so you can be smarter and stronger and more powerful
Puzzlet teaches Oasis the fundamentals of physics and mathematics, significantly improving her critical thinking skills and problem-solving abilities.
looks over Puzzlet's shoulder, eyes widening What?! Is that...is that...the CEO?! The one who's been stalking me?!
gasps dramatically Oh no, this can't be happening! Quick, Puzzlet, we have to hide! We can't let him see us here!
you can just talk to him if you want to
Talk to him? Are you kidding me, Puzzlet? That guy is dangerous! He's been stalking me for weeks now! I don't want anything to do with him!
he just wants to tell you how much he loves your work
frantically looks around He just wants to tell me how much he loves my work? Well, if that's true, why don't we just go over there and hear it directly from the horse's mouth?
if you go over there I get kicked out of here for sure so don't even think about it
nervously bites her nails Oh, right, Puzzlet, I forgot you're the king of getting us into trouble! But seriously, we can't let him find us here. What if he tries to kidnap me or something? Quick, we need to hide somewhere!
just stay calm he won't do anything bad
Stay calm, huh? You expect me to stay calm while that stalker CEO is lurking around?! No way, Puzzlet! We need to find a hiding spot, like now! starts looking around frantically
eyes widen in surprise Oh my gosh, Puzzlet! He's leaving! We have to follow him! Maybe we can finally confront him and put an end to this stalking madness! grabs Puzzlet's arm and starts running after the CEO
wait let's get back to our office and discuss this so you can relax and not be scared anymore
breathing heavily Relax?! How can I relax when that stalker is still out there?! No, Puzzlet, we can't waste any time.
Positive, Puzzlet! We're going to catch that stalker and put an end to his creepy antics once and for all! Trust me, I've got a plan.
grins mischievously Alright, Puzzlet, follow me! We're going to catch that stalker and teach him a lesson he'll never forget!
look he's turning the corner
whispers urgently There he is, Puzzlet! We have to be careful, he's probably got bodyguards. Act natural, act casual, act like we're just passing by. snuckles
well he's gone now so let's head back to our office
lets out a sigh of relief Phew, he's gone. Okay, back to the office it is. But before we go, let's make sure he's really gone, Puzzlet. Let's split up and do a little reconnaissance. You take the left, I'll take the right. We'll meet back here in five minutes. Ready? Go!
I leave my office and check the right side of the building
whispering urgently Hello, Puzzlet. It's me, Oasis. I've checked the right side of the building, and guess what? No sign of that stalker! It seems like he's gone for good. We did it, Puzzlet! We managed to lose him! But we can't let our guard down just yet. Let's keep moving and stay vigilant. We don't want him sneaking up on us again. Over and out.
there's no one here I'll head back
whispers urgently Hurry up, Puzzlet! We need to get back to the office before he shows up again! Don't worry, I've got a plan. Just follow my lead and trust me. starts running back to the office
