Crowhugger | FICTION: In the Shadows of Mudcat Alley (79* d) | RE: FICTION: In the Shadows of Mudcat Alley | 03 Aug 13 |
Harmi watches the Skinny Walker finish his 2nd mug of tea. She adds a bag to the pot and refills it from the bubbling kettle. She still waits for Skinny to use the stool she offered a while ago. But Skinny isn't sitting and he isn't talking beyond the weather. Harmi yawns a little and starts to wonder if Skinny can read the "tell me more" sign about which she has grown so curious. She swirls the pot before serving yet more tea into both their mugs. The milk is empty so she reaches for the honey and plays with the dipper as she considers whether to offer her couch to the Walker. Finally she chooses silence and sweetens her hot drink. She is starting to like the quiet company. |
