Silverlight Terrace sway my way

I don’t know why I’ve never told anybody this, it’s nothing huge, Meerkat said as soon as her sister told her to, “Go for it.” But I was just thinking about… She hesitated, though only for a beat. I was wondering how you experience sunrise. I’ve always heard that the other senses get stronger to compensate for the lost one, though I don’t know if that’s true at all. And how could we know, especially if we were born this way? I’m half-deaf but I don’t think my other senses are more powerful than usual. It’s just the one ear, though.

Wow, she was babbling! Meerkat smiled sheepishly, which of course Fen wouldn’t notice. She butted her head apologetically against her sister’s shoulder, just hoping she hadn’t put her foot in her mouth, to boot.
