Making Friends with Time

"Ella, why are you alone here?" Clark approached Ella, bent down, and asked with a smile.

"Are you not alone? Is there another, or many others like you?" Ella asked, confused.

"Well..."

"How long have you been here? How much do you know about what's happened on this island?" Kevin asked urgently. He wasn't here for leisure but to complete the unfinished mission. Besides, his personality didn't allow for gentle inquiries like Clark's.

"What is time?" Ella asked curiously, seemingly on a completely different wavelength from Clark's group, making communication impossible.

"Are you messing with me? Don't think I have endless patience!" Kevin deliberately acted a bit fierce but had no intention of doing anything.

Ella continued to stare at Kevin, expressionless.
