***Judal***
In Hawaii he played music alongside the locals. It was different from how he usually played. It was interesting. He had wanted to play with them and dance alongside their professionals when he had had a concert here a year ago, but he hadn't had enough time, not that his manager would have let him do it anyway. He spent his time studying it all now.
He started using the gym in his hotel. It was slow going. His muscles all protested, screaming to stop. The first few weeks he continuously had to run to the bathroom to throw up anything in his stomach. His body was a wreck. But it was getting better. Every day he could do a little more before something made him stop. He was determined to have his body back in top condition by the time his little break was over. That meant by the time he returned he would have fans fainting over 'leaked' photos of him running shirtless, the six pack he had lost since he had started his little drinking problem back in all its glory.
He went scuba diving and snorkeling, returning to his room to sketch the underwater beauty he had seen. He hadn't done much art since joining Al Thamen. His work still looked ready to be put in a manga or a cartoon, still missing the lifelike quality it always had. Now even more so actually. That kinda sucked. Whatever.
***Aladdin***
Ugo found a way to schedule her work to give her a little more free time. She had no idea how but she really appreciated it. She missed her friends and took most of the free time to go out with them. She, Alibaba and Morgiana went to lunch and dinner together several times. One afternoon she had entirely off so the three of them, joined by Hakuryuu and Kouha (both Aladdin and Kouha in disguises so they weren't recognized by anyone) went to an amusement park.
The time she spent with her friends helped bring back her smiles, which relieved Ugo. He had been worried. She wasn't completely back to normal, but she seemed better. She still wasn't eating much; in fact he was sure she was eating only when he was around to keep him from being upset. Whatever other free time she had she spent in the gym. She was determined to give people as few reasons to complain as possible. It was starting to work. She had lost the ten pounds Sinbad had been talking about since the Australia tour, more actually.
She was still tired, but she began sleeping better after spending time with her friends. She wasn't catching up with any schoolwork, but at least she wasn't getting any further behind.
And so the days went by.
