Gabriel nodded from his position in the middle of the room. Slowly, he sat himself down on the floor, crossing his legs and placing his elbows on his knees. I knew this position—my meditation pose.
He nodded to me and waved his hand towards the carpeted area in front of him. "Please," his eyes asked for me to join him.
I sat down across from him, crossing my legs and placing my elbows on my knees as well. I knew what we were going to do—we were going to take a journey together. A vision journey. How did I know that? I nodded back at him.
He tenderly took my hands in his and closed his eyes, which prompted me to do the same. Immediately my head was full of visions and he was in every one.
"We were promised to each other as children," his voice sounded in my ears, surrounding me, filling my ears and mind with the rich resonance of his voice. "Our parents knew that our futures would be entwined. Your mother saw as much."
"Who was my mother? I don't remember her." I asked but was afraid to know the answer. A picture of a woman floated into my mind. She was beautiful with long, flowing straight black-brown hair down her back, soft doe-brown eyes, beautifully full lips and a slight smile. Her eyes were happy and her figure was full. She was not skinny or fat —she was just right. I liked her. She was small compared to me. I could tell from the vision but she looked fierce, strong and determined. Standing on the wrong side of her could end you in a world of hurt—I could tell. Yes.
"She was the tribe's shaman. There have not been many female shaman in our tribe but she was not the first or the last. She was the strongest before you, though, and no one questioned her or her decisions. Not until us." I could hear the smile in his voice.
"What did we do?" I wanted to smile. I knew that we were pressing our luck going against my mother's wishes.
"We released each other from our commitment for marriage." His answer did not shock me. Hey, he would have been in my life already if we had been married. I think my husband would have told me about my fiancé.
I opened my eyes, causing him to do the same. He knew that I was outside of our shared memory vision.
"So what do you want now, Gabriel, since we are not committed for marriage and you have pulled me away from everyone that I know? What do you want from me?" My forehead furrowed and my eyes began to squint as if I were looking at him through a microscope.
He cleared his throat and began to hold my hands a tiny bit tighter. He wasn't letting go. "I had a vision."
"Let me guess." I didn't want to say it, "I was pregnant." His eyes opened wide in shock. "I was gonna have baby, I was with child, I was preggers or knocked up.
