Tiny Point of View

Gah! He is looking at me!

Albeit weirdly but nonetheless, his huge eyes are trying to fill my small figure inside them.

Thank heavens I'm smaller in person or else it would have affected his cranial nerves for me being heavy.

"Will you stop fangirling at him so blatantly?" This time, Soul's voice is filled with soul that is possibly a borrowed one. Her own only comes out rarely when earth is ready to say goodbye.

"I'm past being a fan or an AC at that. I'm a proud windmill now." I whispered back carefully so my words reach only her ears.

"Hi, I'm – Tiny." I introduced myself again, giving him my special blink at the end. If someone received that blink of mine, then it means that person shall be receiving a special treatment from me.

Gosh! I'm so shy!

Mr. Zorion Nigel, or should I call him Mr. Human sculpture, frowned down at me, staring at me from top to bottom.

"I absolutely do not think so." Huh? What?

What does he not think so?

Am I too much focused on the person that I can't concentrate on the conversation?

Shaking my head to clear my windmillgirling thoughts, I focused back to what we were talking about and that was when I understood what he meant.

He did not think I'm tiny. No problem though, these days not so tiny people are popular. Although I'm not really tiny like my name suggests, I'm not the opposite too.

I'm just healthy. My height and weight are always in right proportions so you can say I have a good figure.

"No, my name is Tiny." I attempted again to introduce myself all the while Quince shook hands with another man that tagged along with human sculpture.

We all sat down. Soul, Quince and I on one side of the table while human sculpture and his friend who's name I haven't heard, sat on the opposite side of the table.

"Umm, that's okay. Just tell me what it is." He pressed, not seeming to understand that there can be name like mine.

"No, you don't understand, my name is really Tiny." I figured it will take a while to make them understand. It always happens to me.

I mean who names their daughter Tiny just because she came out as tiny?

Does everyone other than me came out of their mother as quite large and grown up?

Parents love... I can't seem to understand it at a certain point.

Human sculpture seems to be a little annoyed as he gritted his teeth a little, "How tiny can it be? Less than an alphabet, a coma, colon or a dot? Just spill it out."

"I am Tiny Dew Almond. My name is Tiny. You can call me Tiny. I can be addressed by you as Tiny. I'm not tiny but still I'm Tiny." Giving him a clarification that I always give to every other person who gets confused over my name, I casually passed a small glittering smile towards him.

It'll be waste of my lips if they don't smile at such a – I don't know how to put him in words.

I'm sure his eyes squinted at the spark my teeth reflected when I smiled.

This time, his eyes brightened with a small speck of realization and immediately dimmed to its usual dark. He just gave me a small curt nod and turned to my cousin and friend who introduced themselves.

Then it came to a cartoonic man who is smiling like a Looney at just everyone at the table. "I'm King King. Name is King, household of King."

So his name is King!

"What a surprise, I thought only I have a name that is contrary to me but now I realize you are same as well. Nice to meet you Mr. King." There are many who are born to be named that way but two kings went waste just like that.

Mr. King turned sour but did not say anything. Human Sculpture cleared his throat and asked why he was harassed into having this appointed with us from the past few weeks.

"I saw everything of yours." I said getting straight to the point. There is no beating around the bush since I've decided to do what I decided to.

"I- I'm sorry?" Human sculpture coughed out as his featured turned into an expression for the first time.

Quince immediately held my hand stopping me from talking as he took over the lead. "What she means to say is she saw all you interviews. She looks up to you as an idol for being such a great hotelier."

"Nothing great. Just get to the point why I'm here in the first place." Human sculpture said almost scorning at three of us.

"I need your help." This time it is me who said those words with contempt for someone else. The previous glint of admiration in my eyes is soon turned into a fiery one.

"No. Anything else?" He spoke not even bothering to listen to me.

Hmm, this man is not just a sculpture but an arrogant one at that. It is good that I always liked a good dose of arrogance and accepted it from others.

"Yes. I want you to be my accomplice."

"Not interested. Next."

"I want your assistance and support in something only you can do."

"I'll pass. If there's nothing important, then I'll take your leave." He adjusted his jacket and was about to stand up from his seat when words tumbled out of my mouth which stumbled him.

"I want revenge on Meow meow mewo mow meow –" I shrieked and covered my mouth and made another attempt to talk but to no use.

"Meow moeow meow meow meeowwww" I cried out to a baffled human sculpture and his non-Kingly friend King.

He is so perplexed by me that his hands stopped midair from adjusting his jacket and kept looking down on me with his mouth wide open like that of Gorilla's we usually see in amusement park entrance.

"Alright. I will. We will talk to him." Soul patted my restless hands and immediately asked the two to sit down. By 'sit down' she used a lot of superiority in her tone and ordered them to sit the hell down.

Both the men were too shocked by the young girl who ordered the great Zorion Nigel and non-King in a tone that none used on them until now; they just sat down wordlessly.

"I apologize. Tiny, here, is a little different from others. I hope you understand and bear with us. Please let me explain and narrate the whole incident before you make the decision." Quince apologized on behalf of Soul and me as he talked softly.

The duo relaxed at my cousin's tone and words. Human sculpture nodded his head with a scowl as he encouraged Quince to speak.

"Hey Meow meow. Why did you just meow?" Just as Quince opened his mouth to talk, we heard King.

"Umm, she is –" Quince paused giving me a glance before he framed right words to talk. "She has a condition."

"A condition?" King asked curiously. I noticed curiosity on Human sculpture's face too which looked so adorable.

His face looked as if a devil with horns and tail is dressed up in Santa's costume. Totally cute!

"A psychological condition." Quince provided and sighed before he reveals one of the biggest secrets of mine. "Our Tiny is a kind and helpful girl. She is so helpful that it has become a weakness."

"Helping others is a weakness? Interesting." Human Sculpture provided dutifully with mild interest.

"Whenever she sees someone in trouble, she immediately goes to help them without thinking about herself or her safety." Quince said in a soft affectionate tone.

I love my cousin. He is the first and only Almond who understands me perfectly.

"But?" Human Sculpture guessed.

"She is always filled with good intention and offers her help to those in need. But –" Quince choked out and took a gulp of water before continuing.

"But if the other party refuses her help, then –" He paused again giving me and Soul a sideward glance.

Human Sculpture and Non-King lurched forward with complete interest and intensity. As if my cousin is telling them a new script for their future movie, they are completely involved in what Quince was saying.

"She gets disappointed and goes – meowing." He finally revealed it. One of my greatest secrets!

Human sculpture has his mouth formed in an 'oh' as he looked between me and my cousin and my best friend. I, as for my part, nodded my head in confirmation.

Non-King, to our surprise, guffawed out. He laughed and laughed and laughed for straight five minutes looking at me as if he paid me for entertaining him.

Hmph! I just have a small condition, a small weakness; how did he have heart to laugh at me?

"So she meows? What a cartoon she is. If someone refuses her help, she meows? From where did she get that idea from? It's totally a hit. Brilliant and totally hilarious. Imagine when she goes to help a cat and it refuses her help. They get into a meow war and none can understand what is going on. Hilarious!"

This Non-King!

To my surprise, I found a small smile on Human sculpture's face which he is trying to bite back when he heard what his friend said.

"She continues to meow whenever she sees the concerned people or the concerned topic comes up and this goes until she completes the task of helping she set her mind on."

"So she needs my help to help someone else?" Human sculpture countered with a grimace.

"Me Meow Meeowww!" I said with utmost determination and fire.

"She wants revenge."

And just like that, my journey towards revenge via Human sculpture started with flying Meows!
