He had overheard what had happened to to Mr.Gibbins' wombat and felt awful about it, that's why he was carrying a certain small cage with him at the time. He intended to give the Groundskeeper something back.
He stopped by the Playground and saw Minerva sitting in it, looking pretty upset. He came in and took a seat next to her a small see-saw. "Hey Minerva." Oakey said with a Sympathetic smile. "You doing okay?"
Minerva looked up and wiped her eyes. Of all people to come in it was Oakey. They had such a rocky friendship this term, but things were better now she thought at least.
"I'm fine Oakey, just so much that had happened this term." She had pulled her legs to her chest and was holding them tightly.
"I was going to see Mr. Gibbins, but stopped here. I'm not sure why, I watched that thing take Millie right here." She felt her voice get shaky again.
She then laughed a bit,
"You know Oakey, you and I haven't been on good terms this term, but I have to say.. I get the plant fear. I don't ever want to see another plant again if I can help it." She had her fill of plants and wanted to stay far away from them. All the time she had interactions with that stupid thing,
"You know that day you came to the hot springs and that vine was around me.. Just think if it would have drug me.." She didn't even want to finish that sentence, it was on her mind so much lately after everything that had gone on.
