"Won't Mary allow you any free evenings?" he said, giving her that easy smile again. This was ridiculous; she was not the kind of woman who melted at a friendly grin. "Maybe if I talk to her."
"No, that's not it—it's just that I—why do you want to have dinner with me?" she floundered.
"Because I got paid yesterday, and I haven't had dinner with a pretty girl since I left Semorrah, and I thought it might be nice," he said. "And look! Yovah sent me you."
"Why do you do that?" she said, her voice almost petulant. "Call the god by a different name?"
He laughed. "Oh, there are many things the Edori do that are different from your ways. We don't live in houses, we don't rely on the angels to care for us, we don't ask the priests to set Kisses in our arms—"
She almost stared at that. "You don't have a Kiss? But how can you—how does the god know who you are and where you are?"
Rufus shrugged. "He knows. He watches over all of us." "But how do you—how can you tell when you're in love?"
Now he looked amused. "And the Kiss can tell you this?"
She was furious with herself for betraying such girlishness. "They say," she said stiffly. "The legends. That when you meet your true love, your Kiss will glow with fire. But if you have no Kiss—"
He was laughing. "I think I will be able to tell, all on my own, when I've fallen in love. I won't need the god's guidance for that."
She shook her head and went back to work on the maltreated hand. "Well. Whatever you say."
"No, whatever you say," he said gaily. "Will you have dinner with me? If not tonight or tomorrow, sometime next week? I can wait till you're free."
