Fippi at school.....

Fippi, the small hobbit boy was now sitting next to Williofain, a young female girl, with long and a bit curly hair. She was one of the Big Folk. This didn't exactly scare Fippi, but he couldn't stop thinking about what his dad may think of this. Fippi knew he wasn't too pleased about those Big Folk. Fippi just knew these things, even though his father had never said such a thing in front of him.

Fippi looked up on Willofain. The busy hair was thick and it lay around her face. Her face was quite pale and her eyes were blank. Fippi turned his head down, trying not to look on her. She noticed this and stared on him. Fippi felt this plain horror streaming around in his body, he started to shiver. Don't hurt me, he thought. He didn't know why he felt this way, he just did. Fippi had never been 'afraid' of the Big Folk, and he had never had this queer feeling as he had right now.

The girl continued to look on him, and Fippi couldn't help himself so he looked up and stared her in the eyes. They were as blank as before, but at the same time they seemed so...innocent...

Suddenly the girl opened her mouth and et out the simple word "hi". Fippi gazed. Without thinking much about it he said "hi" back. The girl smiled- Fippi at least though that was a smile- and blinked with her long eyelashes. Fippi grinned, as the girl asked him a question. She was wondering how old he was. "I'm eight….." Fippi said looking down, to escape Wallofain's eyes. She looked down as well before she continued: "Ha! I'm bigger than you, I'm nine!" She said with a short laugh. "Well...I'm eight and a half!" Fippi replied as quickly as he could. Fippi gave a short laugh as well.

"Get back to your alpabeth you sillybean," Willofain said eventually, laughing yet again.
