Killing Me Softly
You jump off the edge of the shelf and land on the floor. After dusting off your jeans, you turn back to Tao and make a circular motion with your hand.
"Huh?"
Circle, circle, circle. Repeat the question, dumbass!
"Again? I mean, uh... My name's Tao? What's your name?"
You shrug.
"You don't know?"
"Yeah, that's what they just said, Tao," says the girl from her corner.
"Umm... Where'd you come from?"
You point in the general direction of the hotel.
"Wow, uhm..." He sighs. "Can you write?"
You shrug again.
He kneels down and roots through a backpack on the floor. You look over and notice the girl has looked up from her game and is scrutinizing your every move.
"Here!" Tao holds out a pad of paper and a pencil. "Ask me something."
You take the items from him and discover that you can, in fact, write. What do you write first?
