I Hear A Story
âAre you alright?â Sempervirens asks. I shake my head.
âGo on,â I squeak out, âContinue.â
I cast another glance at Sky and Synne. They are fine. Sempervirens shakes green vines out of her face and continues.
âThe powerful savage king is slated to arrive on the Antarean homeworld to meet his clansmen, what will happen next?â
âThatâs it.â
âI am afraid so. If you enjoyed the story, you may tip.â
I have a feeling her suggestion about tipping isnât optional. I tap my finger to her pad and thank her. Leofric is alive and if heâll be on the Antarean homeworld, perhaps I can get a message to him. I get Synne and Sky and usher them home early. I call up the sitter, who eagerly agrees and I rush to Dr. Zâdan. I tell her about the story and she promises to look into it.
âZubon intelligence sometimes moves more slowly than the Aquarians because they can tap into the trees neural network.â
She might as well have been speaking Greek to me. I nod as if I understand and leave her to her work. When I return home, Sky uses a wooden dowel to practice sword fighting with the graceful Zubon sitter. She is agile for her size and she jabs him quickly.
A fight between her and an Antarean of similar age would be admirable. She stops the fight once I walk in. Synne gurgles from her crib.
âDid you have good news, miss?â
âGood enough.â
I pay her and she leaves. Later in the evening, Zâdan stops by after her shift and explains that she found Leofric. He is on their home planet, but there is a war and communications struggle to get in.
âCarrying children, you are exempt from Antarean battle. You could take a ship into their space.â
âHow? I donât know how to fly one.â
âIt will only take you a few months to save the money with your career.â
âMonths?!â
â500,000 credits. You can get a Zubon crew for that price. It is a discount, but I can arrange it. I have become⦠fond of you my dear.â
She smiles and I know she sees me as young as even a great-granddaughter. It has always felt rude to ask the good doctorâs age but I can see it when she smiles and fine lines crack into the silver skin around her eyes.
âWill I be able to send him a message?â
âYou can try.â
She shows me how to apply for communication into Antarean space. The process is a glimpse untrustworthy. I put the children to sleep and try to send something.
Leofric,
I know you are alive. So am I.
I have our daughter, Synne and a son. Sky.
He is not ours. You may believe I am dead but pleaseâ¦
Once you receive this message. Respond.
Coco
I cannot possibly say more than that. I canât put the depth of my love and loss into a simple note for him. Doing so would simply prove too difficult.
I fall asleep next to Sky and wonder if I can convince him to sleep in his own bed soon.
