it was tamar's turn to redden; she looked away.
but when she rejoined aquene in their conversation, it was with a small smile. "yes. arsenio asked me. he said it must be my choice, for i will be the one to carry them. children, i mean." the girl gave a small and self deprecating laugh, annoyed at her own shyness but knowing that the dark medic would understand.
the offer of knowledge was a gift. "please teach me, aquene," she said gently. "i did not remain with my mother long enough to learn." this was not something she mentioned often, if ever. it signalled a growing trust between them.
she settled herself to listen, grateful for the other's presence in her own.
