Hey there Zero
It was morning at The World W Academy, the School where countries can be like students at school. A new student was coming and the president of the student council was getting the files to learn about this new student. Unluckily for England, he hardly talks to her but has seen her at times at America's place or in meetings. As he went through the files he found that the new student has been a student at the school for only a few months but stopped going. He also finds that she was in charge of the garden club and photography club.
"I wonder if she is going to take over again. I guess she might as well since no one else had restarted those clubs."
As England kept on reading the files there is a knock on the door. "Come in"
"Hey you wanted to see us, England?" said with a soft voice, Canada.
Behind Canada was America and Spain. "Hey what's up, England? Why you wanted us three here for?"
"Si, why us? Is it something important?"
All walked up to England's desk waiting for him to answer. England stopped reading and placed the files on the desk. He looked up to them seeing that all three were there. "I want to know about a certain country you three know. I hope that when she comes she doesn't cause any trouble to this school. So please tell me all that you know about Mexico"
"Mexico is coming here!? Amazing it's been long since I've seen her. I wonder how big she's grown and is she starting to talk more?" said Spain.
"She doesn't talk?" asked England.
"Well after defeating her older brother Aztec she never talked. When I taught her Spanish she only said a few words then A few sentences when she gained her Independence. She hardly ever had any facial expressions."
"Did she show any signs when she was at least sad or happy?"
"Well I guess by drawings and the way she did things."
"Explain more"
"Well when she was hungry she would point to food or draw food. She would do the same when she wanted to go somewhere. When she thanked me she would draw me something or when we were outside she would give me a flower or share with me with her food."
"How about when she wanted to say she was feeling lonely?"
"That was memorable. When I would leave she will keep hold to my hand or held to a part of my pants until I got on to the boat. When the boat started to go I would look too see if she waved bye or something but all I see is her staring at me even when the boat got so far I couldn't see her. When I came back I find her sleeping on the dock. I asked one of my men who was with her and he told me that every day she would come back to see when the boat be back. He even said that she would ask in Spanish "Cuando la barco viene?", "Donde esta Espana?", "Cuanto mas dias necesito esperar cuando ya llega?" and "Va venir hoy?""
"Could you please translate what was in Spanish?" asked England as he sounded kind of irritated not knowing what was said.
"Sorry about that. She will ask my men in Spanish "When will the boat be back?", "Where is Spain?", "How many days do I need to wait until he is here?" and "Is he coming to day?" Those were most of the only words anyone would here until I got back and yet show no facial expressions at all when she asked"
"I see. I guess I'll take a note of this in her file" said England as he started writing.
I wonder if I should've told him that every time before I picked her up from the dock I'd find tears on her eyes and chin. I would see the marking of tears that ran on her cheek it looked as if she was crying for more than a while. Every time I saw them I wonder how she looks when she is crying.
Spain woke from his daze once England started snapping his fingers in front of his face.
"Huh? Oh sorry England I was just remembering. Did you say something?"
"Yes!" said England irritated. "I asked that if you knew what happened after Mexico gained her independence from you?"
"Actually I don't know anything. You are going to have to ask these two now" said Spain as he pointed to America's and Canada's direction.
"Well I guess I can tell you some things I know of Mexico" offered Canada.
"Please do" said England as he and Spain faced to his direction.
"Well sometimes she will visit me and bring me gifts. Mostly things she made like baskets, candy, bracelets, necklaces, bowls, vases, and piñatas. She will often get me to play with her a game she calls Loteria. It's almost like bingo but with pictures with names. We will often play jump rope or soccer. When we talk she will tell me about her days also places where she want to take me."
"She talks? About how much does she talk?" asked Spain.
"About how much she can. I guess if you talk to her she'll talk to you back. You have to start the conversation first though."
"Amazing I can't believe it I can't wait to talk to her. There's many things I would like to ask her." Said Spain excited.
"Yes I bet there are a lot of things you both can talk about" said Canada as he smiled at the thought of it.
"Well she doesn't sound like a troublemaker who will create chaos" said England as he wrote it down in the file. "How about you America you had war with her before."
"Yeah I did." America confessed.
"How was she in war?" asked Spain who very interested since she beat him to gain her independence.
"She was strong until I beat her that is."
"How are you getting along with her now a day's"
"Well at times not quite"
"Why is that?" said Spain sounding worried. England noticed that Canada started to hold his polar bear a little tighter and looking sad as America started explaining why.
"The border between us…..ever since the fence was kept on being built we soon just didn't get along much. She once told me that she feels distant from me" said America as he turned his head to look out the window. "We do sometimes go to meetings but that's just it. That's when I only I get to hear her talk. We don't get along anymore like we use to when we were kids."
"You both met when you were kids?" both Spain and England said since they never introduced them to each other.
"When France, England, and Spain would go back to Europe" Canada started to speak "America and I would wonder off and one day we met Mexico. She was so small, smaller than both of us .We found her playing with leaves in the river. When we asked her who she was she said "Mexico". She gave us each a leaf and we ended up playing with her. We soon found that the reason she would play with leaves is because she was pretending they were boats. We would race our leaf boats to see who got theirs the farthest in the river."
Both Spain and England were amazed. Who would've thought the three countries would find each other on their own. Yet they did live in the same continent and the countries did live right next to each other.
"Why didn't you two never told me you guys met when you were small?!" asked England.
"Well because you and France always told us to not wonder off in someone else's territory and we were afraid you two will scold us if we told you that we would play around at New Spain back then." Canada explained.
"Well that would be true" England admitted.
"For me Mexico would hardly say anything so of course I wouldn't know" said Spain as he started to scratch the back of his head. "But how did you know that I went back to Europe, Canada?"
"Oh it's because whenever we would go back to play with her she would never be around until we once spotted her on a dock. We asked her why was she sitting on the dock on her own and she would respond that she is waiting for Spain to come back. And when you were around she would hardly play with us "
"Pretty much she felt lonely without Spain beside her so she played with Canada and America" said England.
"I see. Well I'm glad you two kept her company when she was small." Spain said as he let a bright smile to them.
"Well getting back to the subject" England said "Pretty much it sounds to me that she is not much trouble at all. Well I guess I could less worry now. You three can go back now that's it for today."
As the three left his office Canada noticed that America was looking a little sad.
"Hey America don't worry I bet sooner or later she'll get along with you" Canada said as he patted America's head.
"Yeah…thanks Canada"
Canada waved to America goodbye and left to class. America looked out the window. "I wonder if it's going to be alright with you Mexico that we are now going to see each other more often."
The next day came and everyone already heard the news that Mexico will be attending school.
"Mr. Germany, should we interview Mexico for the school newspaper?" said Japan.
"That is if she wants to be interviewed. Turns out she use to be in charge of the photography club and garden club before so we might" responded Germany.
"I really would like to greet her. Yesterday Spain ended up talking about her at lunch except Romano started sounding quite mad the more he talked about Mexico" said Italy.
"Well I guess we'll end up seeing her later maybe since she is in England's office right now" Said Japan.
"Yeah Spain told me that he invited her over to our class so come later to our class too Japan so we can all meet her" Italy said.
"Okay then I'll see later then" Japan waved goodbye to the both of them and left to his class.
Meanwhile in the office of the student council president, England was talking to Mexico about some things of the school.
Mexico was wearing the female school uniform along with the blue long sleeve suit jacket that had the school's symbol on it. She had some strands of her black hair tied back while the rest of her hair was let down reaching above her elbows.
"So is it okay if re-start the garden club and the photography club?" she asked.
"That will be fine since no one ever restarted those clubs after you left but are you sure you can handle two clubs?" said England sounding concerned.
"Yes I did it before and I can handle it again."
"Okay then. Here are the keys to the photography room and the keys to the shed that will have the equipment for gardening" After England handed her the keys she put them both in her pockets.
"Thank you" said Mexico.
"If any questions you have you can come over and ask me. You may go now to your class"
"Thank you, Mr. England sir" replied Mexico and off she went to her class.
I wonder how's school is going to be for me this time. It's been long since I've been here and the only reason I came back is because my boss told I should start going to school again. I can't wait to see Canada again we are going to see more of each other now. Wait but if I am going to see Canada more that means I'll be seeing America too. I wonder if this will work out.
To be continued…
Thank you reading this chapter. Hope fully many will read the next chapter. Please Review. The things that Mexico sends to Canada are some of the things my relatives and parents know how to make.
