![]() She watches as her father wandered aimlessly through the kitchen, looking for the food that wasn't there. She felt badly for him, knowing he still hadn't come to terms with his lover's death. He had lost much in these last two years. His wife, his parents, his hearing... But he still had his daughter, however little she was around. Sighing, Anju rose to her feet. She stomped hard, sending a vibration through the wooden floor, strong enough for him to feel. He turned, and stared longingly at his daughter. "Where's the food?" He said loudly, not realizing his tone. "You're mother was supposed to go shopping." Taking a deep breath, Anju grabbed the notebook that resided on the kitchen table. Carefully, she wrote Mother died six months ago, Dad. She didn't go shopping. You have to go on your own. Also, I'm going out for a while. Word is, the new batch of outsiders have come. She turned the notebook, and he read the words carefully. He had lost his hearing quite recently, and before then, he always read. So, knowing how to read really made things easier for everyone, for Anju didn't know sign language. After reading the note, her father walked away. His face was frozen, showing no emotion. But as Anju left the house, she could hear his horrible sobbing. Closing the door behind her, she took off for the forest as quickly as her body would allow. She wanted to be the first to catch a nice little pet. |
