19 Omakayas looked longingly at Twilight, and her cousin
made a sad and frustrated face. With her favorite cousin so close
and her annoying brother so near, it was difficult to play. If only
they could talk! At first, the girls communicated by mouthing
words and moving their eyes, but the temptation to laugh was
too great. They turned away from each other unwillingly.
Omakayas listened to the rain, a solid drumming and hissing.
Then she listened to the fire crackling and sighing. She watched
the beautiful and changing glow of the coals. At some point,
Omakayas couldn’t tell exactly when, her attention was
caught by something her father said. And then she noticed
that her cousin Twilight was also listening to the grown-ups’
conversation. Soon, they all couldn’t help but listen. They
leaned forward, straining to hear every sound, almost forgetting
to breathe.
