Petals and Wind
The lake is good for swimming, though Shane and = Miss Jordan yell that we'll get hypothermia if we stay in too long. They only us= e it to wash hurriedly and they shiver for a long time afterward.
Kiran is fascinated by Shane's tattoos, which c= over his arms like sleeves of whirling color. I asked him what the point of them was, but he didn't answer. My glare was the only thing that stopped him hit= ting one or both of us. He's really got to learn better.
Bran sat up by himself this morning. Miss Jordan was really happy. She'= s been so worried.
Shane says we have to leave here soon, but I don't want to. The woods here = are deep, deep green with lots of places to hide and climb. Kiran helps me find food when I get too hungry between meals. We find a whole fie= ld of berries so I bring some back to the others.
"You're not eating things you find in the woods, are you?" Bran a= sks, gently. He's good at getting his way because he always sounds like he knows what's best.
"It's ok. Kiran knows which ones are good.= "
Kiran nods proudly. "I smell them," he explains.
"Brother-" Bran starts.
I interrupt him. "My name is Jadan," = I say.
He and Shane look alarmed. I roll my eyes.
"It's not." I tell them. No one but Kiran will ever know my real name. The idea of anyone else knowing scares me.
"Kiran and Jadan," Miss Jordan says, "Has a certain ring." He smiles at me so I know he knows th= at I took his advice. I smile back to show I understand.
We eat the berries even though they're sour, but I'm still hungry when they= 're all gone. I hope Bran will be well enough to cook soon. Shane makes weird f= ood.
Kiran wants to hang around and bug Shane all afternoon and besides he needs to be near Bran so he can help him. I don't = mind that he's not helping me anymore. I can take care of myself now.
I climb the ridge our cave is in. The rocks at the top are warm from the su= n, so I sit on them and watch the leaves dance and the clouds flow across the = sky. I remember other trees, pink ones, and being lonely. They didn't leave me behind this time, I think, but none of that makes sense. Maybe I dreamed it, like that strange woman and her husband with the funny mustache.
When Kiran finds me, he folds himself over my b= ack and rests his chin on my shoulder. He whispers my name.
"Look," he says, opening his grubby palm to show me the salamander squirming there.
"Let's go put it in Miss Jordan's hair," I snicker.
His grin is wide and mischievous and all for me. "Awesome!"
