Chapter 7: Not Talking
Obi-wan and Anakin got back to their apartment around 6 am. Obi-wan yawned, rubbing the back of his head where the combat droid had hit him.
"I shall go make us some breakfast" Anakin stated scurrying off into the kitchen. Obi-wan looked over where Anakin was, but his padawan had already vanished into the kitchen. He let out another yawn, moving over to the couch in the living area. He really needed to wake up.
Suddenly he heard a loud thud come from the kitchen. He sprang up from his seat quickly and sprinted into the kitchen. His eyes widened as he stopped dead in the doorframe. Anakin was on his knees, with a fierce grip on the counter, he looked slightly paled.
"Whats wrong, padawan?" Obi-wan asked concerningly, walking over to him and helping him to his feet.
"Nothing master...just a little dizzy" Anakin stated slightly wobbily. No one had informed Obi-wan of Anakins' condition, and Anakin intended to keep it that way. Anakin kept telling himself he was fine, even though his body sent him different signals.
"Maybe we should take you down to the healers'" Obi-wan replied.
"No need for that master, ive had enough healers' for one month, thank you very much" Anakin mumbled, starting to finish to prepare their breakfast. Obi-wan stepped back, and yawned again. He moved to the table where they ate. As Anakin brought in their meals.
"You look tired, master, maybe you should sleep" Anakin stated seeing the dark lines under his eyes, and his constant yawning.
"No need for that, padawan, Its day now, we must do our chores for the day" Obi-wan avoided the fact that he did need sleep.
"Alright..." Anakin mumbled, picking at his food. Obi-wan didnt even touch his. It looked like neither of them were very hungry. Neither of them told each other to eat either. Usually when one is not eating or just picking at their food, the other would make them eat, but this was different, both were not eating so they both stayed silent about it. Obi-wan could sense that something was bothering Anakin, but at the moment he decided to let Anakin handle it in his own way, if he needed help he would propably come to Obi-wan anyways. At least Obi-wan hopes Anakin knows that he can come to him anytime about anything.
Around 7 am, Anakin headed off to his normal classes, leaving Obi-wan alone. Anakin would not be back til lunch time. Obi-wan sat on the couch, flexing his metal arm, listening to the small noises of metal clashing on metal.
He was started to get bored. He decided he would go visit Garen, He had heard Garen had just returned from a mission. Garen was one of his oldest friends, a Jedi Knight now. Garen had an apartment to himself, he was going to get his own padawan soon. Obi-wan headed down to Garens' Apartment and knocked on his door.
"Hey Garen? I am pretty sure your awake by now!" Obi-wan said through the door. Garen opened the door smiling big. He hadnt seen Obi-wan alot since he had taken Anakin as his padawan. Hardly ever actually since then. Garen instantly threw himself into Obi-wan giving him a big friendly hug. Obi-wan laughed quietly returning the embracement. Garen stepped back and examined his old friend for any changes since he saw him last time. He then caught sight of Obi-wans' new arm, well the hand is all he could see right now because of his robe.
"So someone finally managed to disarm you...literally eh?" Garen slightly joked, remembering back in the Padawan tournaments that he could never beat Obi-wan.
"Yes it would have seemed so..." Obi-wan sighed heavily.
"I heard about the battle on Genosis...sounds quite intrigueing, come on in tell me about it, im sure you got an exciting tale to tell, my old buddy" Garen said wrapping his arm across Obi-wans' shoulders and gently pushing him into his apartment.
"There is really nothing to tell, if you already heard the gossip around the temple" Obi-wan avoided sharing his near death experience.
"O come on, you are always willing to share your version of the story that is usualy more exciting!" Garen nagged at him.
"What you want me to tell you about how i almost died! I got my arm taken away from me! I havent been the same since! And My Padawan is sheilding from me! Is That what you want to hear Garen!" Obi-wan roared, Garen didnt expect this and was a little frighten by his friends' sudden out burst.
