"I am sorry, but I am new still in the U.K. My English is not good yet," he apologises in advance. He realises he should have confused many people with his poor English by now. The prefect bit misses him as something strikes his mind again and Xing's mind isn't there for the moment.
After he gets back to reality just in time as Louisa gives instructions, Xing nods, doing what has been told by the badge girl. His mum always told him to listen to people who wears badge because they are usually in charge. He looks for four wheels from the junk and afterwards, carries them to where Louisa is. "Here are the four wheels," says he as he drops them off onto the ground.
Oh. Great. She shrugged one shoulder as she put down the last wood piece, "
It's alright. I'll try to speak more slowly for you." Yes? Yes. She pointed at the two wood planks she had on the floor and started talking, "
So.. we have two walls, four wheels... we need a handle and a floor." She looked up at him and
ordered asked, "
Can you get a flat squared wood piece from over there?" She pointed at the pile nearby. "
I'll get the handle and then hopefully we'll be able to stick everything together." Merlin help them who was going to pull whom later.
Louisa then knelt before the pile of items and started to look for the handle needed. All the time huffing and swearing under her breath whenever her shawl or flowy skirt got caught by something. Seriously, couldn't they just wear their usual uniforms while doing this building? Grabbing one of the handles, she stood back up and waited for Zing to do his part.
... if he understood her before.
