A Peculiar very Peculiar (Miss Peregrine's home for peculiar children)

*Note: Sorry I didn't upload a chapter yesterday, but I wasn't in a good mood, actually, I was quite sad. As many of you will know, I went to the doctor and he told me that I had to have some medical tests and also asked him if what I had could be something serious, but he said no. However, I'm quite apprehensive and all day yesterday I could not stop thinking that I might have a fatal disease and even today I've been thinking about it, but thanks to my family, I'm a little calmer. Nevertheless, I am still a little worried and tomorrow I will have the medical tests, wish me good luck.

I know many of you won't care, but I feel good about letting off steam.

And after seaying that, leave me a review if you like it and susrcribe to my patreon if you want to read even more chapters. The details in my patreon page.

Have a good day :)

...

I see. I suppose that her affinity with plants makes her feel comfortable with them and that is why she has such a calm personality, just as plants hae. But that's what I like about her; that she's a quiet girl and doesn't get upset easily, it's what makes her who she is, Fiona, a girl whose peculiarity is to grow plants.

Well... What do you think of my favorite place?" – she asked.

She seemed quite impatient to receive an answer from me. As if it were necessary for her to know whether or not I liked her secret place.

"The truth is that I also relax to be among plants. This place is very good, but it could be better if it could be fixed. If it were, with your peculiarity to grow plants, this would be a beautiful place" – I said.

Plants transmit peace and tranquility and that is something that no one can deny me. You may like them or not, you may or may not have a plant in your house. But the undeniable fact is that many of us have sometimes stared at a plant, envious of its tranquility. At least it happened to me.

In my past life I did countless things and also had other hobbies before I got into the world of manga and books and one of those hobbies was gardening. Don't get me wrong, I won't say something like: "I know how to recognize a lot of flowers, where and in what conditions they grow and how to care for them correctly." Not at all, I just bought some plant seeds and grew them by providing them with water every day. Obviously I learned the name of the plants I bought and if it could grow in the environment in which I lived. But there were very few plants. Let's say that they are the typical plants that a normal person would have in their house, nothing more. But as I said, I never understood about plants. I only have a little bit of information about those I bought in the distant past.

"Yes... That's a shame. But although I can't fix the outside because it would be too much work and will return to this condition after the restart, the inside is different" - Fiona said.

When we both entered through the huge hole, we could see what was once a beautiful flower garden, but now, they were completely withered and there was nothing attractive about them.

Seeing this, Fiona bent down and began to pull the wilted flowers out of the ground.

"What are you doing?" – I asked.

"I'm pulling the wilted flowers out of the ground. But don't worry, it won't take long, especially if we are two people" – Fiona said.

Now Fiona seemed more talkative, as if being among plants, her personality became a little more active and open. I guess all this was because she was like a fish in water and that made her behave more confidently.

"Couldn't you pull out the withered flowers with your peculiarity?" – I asked again.

"Unfortunately my peculiarity does not allow me to do that" – Fiona denied.

[If she had one more "level", she would be able to order the surrounding plants to do the work for her. Too bad it doesn't]

"So let's not waste any more time. You're going to see first-hand my speed" – I said with a smile.

Fiona smiled and continued to pluck the wilted flowers and plants.

On the other hand, I also started plucking all those wilted flowers and plants. I used all my strength and speed to do it and together with Fiona, we completed the job in less than 1 hour of work. Now, devoid of any withered plants or flowers, only a large dirt floor remained.

"Thank you" – she said with a grateful tone.

"There is no need to give it. Miss Peregrine told me that the family is not thanked. We help each other because we are family" – I said calmly.

Fiona was surprised but nodded with a smile. It seems that Jacob had finally understood that they were family. It seems that he had finally accepted them, something that made Fiona very happy. Well, it was something she expected from the first time she discovered that Jacob was Abe's grandson. But don't get her wrong, She didn't want him to stay because that was the reason, but because... you will find out soon.

"I think it's time to eat something; don't you think?" – Fiona said.

The truth is that, although it had only taken us an hour, between all the effort we made to get here (which was no small thing) and the hour of work plucking flowers and withered plants, it made my stomach ask me for food urgently.

"I think you're right. But unfortunately I didn't bring anything to eat; I'm sorry" – I said.

But, even if i wanted to buy something, I would not have brought anything to eat. Why? Well, because the prices in Cairnholm are extremely high and I suspect they would try to rip me off for being a tourist! So I prefer to have lunch and dinner here, have breakfast at the hotel and have dinner again at the hotel with my father (even if it's just fruit).

"Don't worry. I brought enough food for both of us" – Fiona said.

I looked at Fiona and the only thing I could see on her was a small brown bag no bigger than my hand and hanging from her waist.

"I don't want to doubt you, but... where is the food?" – I asked.

"Here; of course" – Fiona said taking her bag.

From it, she took out a pile of seeds that she immediately threw on the ground.

"I will grow these plants. I have everything: apples, tomatoes, pears... I have a lot of fruits that we can eat if we want" – she said somewhat excitedly.

Ehem, I'm not an expert, but when I planted tomato seeds in my previous life, I had to plant them separately from each other. In addition, fruits cannot be planted in this way, some have to be planted separately from others and require completely different conditions.

[Do you still think like this? The peculiarity of this girl allows her to grow any type of plan in any environment, no matter if the plant needs a cold or warm environment to grow. Forget about your normal knowledge about plants while you're with this girl]

I see. Her peculiarity is amazing. It's a pity that it doesn't work for battle.

[If it was a higher level, she could order the plants to fight. It could also modify plants at the genetic level to create other species with different qualities and effects]

Impressive peculiarity.

"Is something wrong?" – Fiona asked somewhat nervously.

Suddenly, Jacob had stared at the ground without saying anything.

"No. It's just that I was watching carefully at how you're going to use your peculiarity to grow plants. I'm sorry if I didn't tell you anything" – I said.

I have to stop talking with the system when I'm with people.

"I see... Then you'll be surprised what I'm going to do" - she said.

Previously, in the show she did something similar. But what she will do right now, in front of me, has nothing to do with the demonstration she did the other day, I'm sure.

Seeing that she had caught my attention, Fiona put her hands on the ground and concentrated. At first nothing happened, but suddenly, something happened that left me extremely surprised. In front of me, the seeds that Fiona threw on the ground earlier, began to grow at an impressive speed and before I could realize it they had already borne fruit. As far as I could see there were apples and pears.

"Amazing... amazing" – I said in amazement.

This is incredible, plants that would have taken months to grow or in this case trees, had grown and borne fruit in a matter of seconds. This sight would amaze anyone.

[And if she had one more level, she wouldn't need to put her hands on the ground. With a single thought, she could make plants grow]

"T-Thank you" – she said blushing.

It may be that for Jacob to praise her was only normal; but for Fiona it wasn't and she was embarrassed. They had already praised her peculiarity dozens of times and not only the girls and Miss Peregrine, but also the boys. But when Jacob praised her, she felt a completely different happiness than usual. A joy that overflowed throughout her body.

"You're amazing, Fiona" – I said sincerely.

With Fiona's peculiarity, the peculiars of this orphanage could live perfectly well without spending any money. Unfortunately, human beings had to eat meat to survive because they needed vitamins that only meat had.

Fiona couldn't say a single word due to the shame and joy she felt and she had remained static in place; unable to move.

"Is something wrong with you?" – I asked somewhat worried.

Suddenly, Fiona had been static in her place, as if she were a stone statue; which worried me a little.

"N-Nothing is wrong with me; let's eat" – she said.

Then, she picked up an apple and took a bite of it. I picked one up too and we started eating a lot of fruit. There was plenty of fruit for both of us and we could eat whatever we wanted.

"Fiona, isn't it wrong to waste all your seeds here? I mean, it would have been better to use it to benefit everyone in the orphanage" - I asked.

"D-Don't worry... Just like money, seeds also reset and go back into my bag after the restart..." – she said.

Again, infinite food. It's impressive.

"Impressive" – I said.

"Yes... But I regret not bringing more types of seeds. I did not remember that this morning Miss Peregrine told me to plant some tomatoes for dinner, among other fruits. So I could only bring apples and pears" - she said.

"Don't worry. I like apples and pears. Besides, I didn't come here with you to eat, but to be with you" – I said.

Hearing those words, Fiona blushed as much as the apple she currently held in her hand.
