“Ken brought my hand to his lips and kissed it. I'd been paying so much attention to Ken, I didn't know what happened during the game. I don't think anyone cared too much what the outcome was after Ken's at bat.

"Do you know who won?" I asked Cooper, who automatically translated into sign language for Shawn.

Shawn laughed his odd laugh and signed something back. He looked at Ken, who had an arm wrapped possessively around my waist.

Cooper grinned. "Shawn says it looks like you did, Jordie.”

“NOTE: The character of Aoleon is deaf. This conversation takes place in the book via sign language...

鈥淔eeling a certain kind of way Aoleon?鈥�
She snapped-to and quickly became defensive. 鈥淲hat in the name of the Goddess are you on about?鈥�
Shades of anger and annoyance. The old Aoleon coming out.
鈥淚鈥檓 sorry. I shouldn鈥檛 poke at you like that. It鈥檚 okay you know. There鈥檚 nothing wrong about the way you feel.鈥�
As if suddenly caught up in a lie, Aoleon cleared her throat and ran her fingers absentmindedly over her ear and started to fidget with one of the brass accents in her snowy hair.
A very common nervous reaction.
鈥淣o鈥 mean鈥ell I was鈥h...鈥�
鈥淎oleon, I know about you and Arjana.鈥� he admitted outrightly as he pointed at the drawing.
She coughed, stuttered, smiled, but could bring herself to fully say nothing. Words escaped her as she looked about the room for answers.
鈥淢y sight is D寞v寞n毛, lest we forget. I knew you were growing close.鈥�
鈥淵es. Well鈥he鈥檚鈥omething else.鈥�
鈥淚ndeed?鈥� he responded.
Images flashed briefly in Aoleon鈥檚 head of her father鈥檚 old friend. Verging on her fiftieth decade of life. She was a fierce woman by all accounts. One who鈥檇 just as soon cut you with words as she would a blade. Yet, she was darling and caring towards those she held close to her. Lovely to a fault; in a wild sort of way. Dark skin, the colour of walnut stained wood. Thick, kinky hair fashioned into black locs that faded into reddish-brown tips that were dyed with Assamian henna; the sides of her head shaved bare in an undercut fashion. Tattoos and gauged ears. Very comfortable with her sexuality. Dwalli by blood, but a native of the Link by birth although she wasn鈥檛 a Magi. Magick was her mother鈥檚 gift.
鈥淚 heard her say something very much the same about you once Aoleon.鈥�
鈥淩eally?鈥� Aoleon perked up right away. 鈥淒id she?鈥�
鈥淵es. After she first met you in fact. Nearly exactly.鈥�
Aoleon鈥檚 smile widened and she beamed happiness. She sat up assertively and gave a curt nod. 鈥淲ell, of course she did.鈥�
鈥淪he鈥檚 held such a torch for you for so long that I was starting to wonder if anything would actually come of it.鈥�
鈥淵eah. Both you and Prince Asshole.鈥� Aoleon exclaimed with a certainty that was absolute as she once again tightened up with defensiveness.
Samahdemn walked his statement back. 鈥淧eace daughter. I didn't know your brother had been giving you a row about her. Then again, he is your brother. So anything is possible.鈥�
Aoleon sighed and nodded. 鈥淣ot so much problems as he鈥檚 been giving me the silent treatment over it. Na鈥橩wanza. It鈥檚 always Na鈥� Kwanza.鈥�
Samahdemn nodded knowingly and waived a dismissive hand. 鈥淗e鈥檚 just jealous. He always has been.鈥�
鈥淪o I鈥檝e noticed.鈥�
鈥淲hy would you hide it? Why not tell me?鈥�
鈥淚 don鈥檛 know.鈥� she said; shrugging her shoulders. 鈥淚 didn鈥檛 know how you鈥檇 take it I suppose.鈥�
鈥淪eriously? You were afraid of rejection? From me? Love, have I ever held your individuality against you? Have I ever not supported you or your siblings?鈥�
She shook her head; a bit embarrassed that she hadn't trusted him. "No, I suppose not."

“Deaf, Dumb, Blind
***
A life breathes
In its past, present
And future
It might be
Or might not be.

Most of it
The past was a deaf
Don't hear; it is a terrible
The present is a dumb
Don't tell; it is a bitter
The future will be a blind
Don't look; it is a dark

However, I breathed
I breathe
I shall breathe

Be happy
With adopting,
To be deaf, dumb, and blind
Otherwise, bear and wear
Wish in the heart
Tears in the eyes
To disappear
Forever.”
― Ehsan Sehgal
