Kenji, Terk, Flynt, Mungo and the other gorillas with them had fun with wrestling but they decided maybe they should do something else for some fun since the sun was still up and wasn't going down anytime soon. They were amazed that Kenji was pretty good at wrestling, made them wonder what else did he know and the strange healing power he had seemed to have them scratching their heads but they knew Kenji wasn't going to tell them yet since he seemed to look a bit hesitant and nervous to talk to them about it and figured he'll feel comfortable telling them when he's ready. They were now standing somewhere near a hill that led to the water or a river that hippos and elephants go to from time to time for swimming or just to splash water on them in order to bathe.

"So how did you learn to wrestle?" Terk asked Kenji.

"The people I told you about taught me many things and wrestling was one of them." answered Kenji.

"Maybe they should've taught you how to fight against a leopard, we have them around here and boy are they killing machines." said Flynt trying to be funny.

Kenji began to look like he was panicking once he heard about the leopards, since they have leopards in Africa and black panthers, this got Kenji a bit nervous and his heart was racing a bit from fear.

"Leopards, you mean, with big claws and big fangs that could tear you limb from limb?" said Kenji as he looked like he wanted to faint right than and there.

"That's the one." said Mungo.

Terk was seeing this made Kenji afraid and she placed her hand on his shoulder, she was patting his shoulder lightly in her attempt to comfort him which was working.

"It's alright kiddo, even if we have them around, we all know how to fight back against them, even Tarzan can take them down." said Terk trying to comfort him.

Terk turned towards Flynt and Mungo with a stern look and she knew that what they said to Kenji had freaked him out. Kenji was starting to feel better from what Terk said.

"Flynt, Mungo, try not to say anything that's going to freak out Kenji, we're trying to teach him how to be a kid and have fun, not give him a heart attack." said Terk with a look of warning.

"Sorry, we didn't mean anything by it." said Mungo looking guilty.

"It's alright guys, as long as them predators leave us alone, we'll leave them alone." said Kenji as he was being so understanding. "So what are we in this part of the jungle for, are we looking at something?"

"More like showing you around the jungle." said Terk with a grin.

Kenji understood and knew he didn't know his way around the jungle and they were showing him around the jungle. Kenji was thinking of something as he remembered something from when he woke up from when was in bed for two days.

"You guys mind if I ask something out of curiosity, even if it's a bit embarrassing?" asked Kenji blushing.

"Sure, there will be no judgement, right guys?" said Terk giving Flynt and Mungo a warning look.

Flynt and Mungo knew that the look Terk was giving them meant she knew if they make fun of Kenji, she'll give them an earful and she wasn't kidding either.

"Okay, here goes. When I was asleep for two days, I could've sworn that I felt someone kiss me before while I was asleep, I think it was a dream but I can't tell if it was a dream or not because it felt so real." said Kenji looking a bit embarrassed for asking.

Flynt and Mungo were trying not to burst out laughing since they knew that Terk kissed him while he was asleep because they dared her to do it since she lost at the rock, paper, scissors. Terk blushed as her heart raced, she didn't want Kenji to know about her kissing him and if he found out, she'd feel so humiliated and it would make things weird between them.

"Well Kenji, it was probably a dream. Jane's father told me that sometimes dreams can have them moments when it feels so real when it isn't really real at all, it happens sometimes." said Terk as she was trying to be cool.

Terk saw Flynt and Mungo on the verge of laughing but she gave them a stern look again and she silently mouthed "Not a word" to Flynt and Mungo and they both managed to stop laughing and they knew she was warning them. Kenji felt better from what Terk told him but he had no idea she lied because it was her that kissed him.

"Maybe your right, some people like Professor Archimedes have told me some dreams can happen like that, but the people who told me about this said most of the time when that happens, the case turns out to be a person sleep walking." said Kenji. "Was I sleep walking sometime before I woke up and you three were watching me?"

"Nope, you were asleep in bed the whole time." said Flynt.

Kenji agreed he probably wasn't sleep walking since anyone he was around with told him he never had any symptoms to sleep walking and he hasn't been doing that while he was in the jungle either.

"So what's human civilization like?" asked Mungo curiously.

"It has it's good days and it's bad days, you will mostly see humans everywhere, sometimes we have animals but they're the domesticated kind of animals such as a house pet. The only way you see wild animals in human civilization is in a zoo or performing in a circus." explained Kenji.

"So in these zoos, the animals are not in cages, are they?" asked Terk curiously.

"No, not cages, more like a habitat. They would build and design a habitat for each animal to make it look like a home to them. People go to the zoo and see the animals in these habitats, but that's not the only reason why they go to the zoo. The animals in the zoo are usually there to house them for many reasons, such as if the animal was found and was injured or sick and couldn't defend themselves in the wild or if the animal species is on the verge of becoming extinct and they let them go in a zoo to save their species by having them repopulate their species so they can walk this earth again or some of them just happen to live there for other reasons than the ones I've stated." explained Kenji. "They provide care of all kinds for the animals there, but trust me, it's not the same as being out here in the jungle, you'd be too far away from the jungle if you were ever in a zoo."

From what Kenji explained, to Terk, Flynt, Mungo and some of the other gorillas, the zoo seems to sound more like a place where they're kept as pets or a place to rest till they healed from an injury or illness. But they probably agreed with what Kenji told them in it being not the same as being out there in the jungle.

"Sounds like a doctor's place for animals to me but I'd rather be out here with my friends and family." said Terk as she expressed her opinion.

Kenji placed his hand on Terk's hand and it seemed to make Terk feel comfortable, like a sense of security.

"Also, animals don't belong in cages." said Terk softly as she looked at Kenji.

"I wouldn't let anyone put you or your friends and family in a cage." said Kenji blushing.

Terk took hold of Kenji's hand like they were holding hands and Terk had quite the large hands for a female gorilla. Kenji blushed deeper as he noticed they were holding hands and he looked down out of shyness, his heart was beating a bit faster from both shyness, nervousness and excitement that was probably from a hinted love interest.

"They're holding hands." whispered Mungo in Flynt's ear.

Terk seemed to hear that and both of them released their hands from each other's grip, knowing Flynt and Mungo were stairing.

"You must have learned how to be so kind from family or friends or something back in human civilization." said Flynt looking a bit touched.

"I didn't actually learn that from anyone back in human civilization, back there, I didn't have family or friends." said Kenji looking grim. "Well, I did have a dad but I couldn't live with him no more."

They all felt a bit guilty for knowing this part about Kenji now, knowing they had friends and family but he never had friends or family to begin with but they were a bit curious about his father.

"I'm sorry." said Flynt feeling sorry he said what he said.

"So why couldn't you live with your dad no more?" asked Mungo curiously. "I'm just not understanding."

"Let's just say my dad hasn't been the best father to me." said Kenji as he hinted at the reason.

Flynt, Mungo and Terk all got closer to Kenji and they wrapped their arms around him in a big group hug, knowing that he needed this since they felt a bit guilty for bringing up a few unpleasant memories from Kenji's past, they may not know anything about his past or anything about him right now but they knew he needed affection and attention right now or give him something else to think about and Terk grinned as she got an idea.

"Hey little man, I know something that can put a smile on your cute face." said Terk blushing.

"I'm listening." said Kenji as the hug was helping him feel so much better.

Terk giggled a bit as he got Flynt and Mungo's attention and all three of them began to giggle a bit as well.

"Tickle him boys." Terk blurted out eagerly.

Terk, Flynt and Mungo began to tickle Kenji's belly, his sides and all over those parts of his body. Kenji was laughing, squirming and was helpless to stop them.

"Hey, no fair." laughed Kenji.

"Tickle tickle tickle." said Terk, Flynt and Mungo in unison eagerly.

Kenji was starting to choke a bit but them three gorillas stopped tickling him immediately and they hugged him in a group again. Kenji started to feel better from the hugging. As the three gorillas had Kenji feel better, the young human started to feel loved, although there were a few things that was on the mind. What kind of life style did Kenji live in back in human civilization since it sounded like it wasn't much of a good life for Kenji, what was his father like since Kenji claims that his dad wasn't a very good father to him and for some reason, Terk was feeling something more than taking an interest in Kenji, she was feeling like she was in love but she had no idea if she should be grossed out about it or to be excited about it.
