WITH THAT in mind, Zeki took care to avoid the village if he could, and the standing stone, and the Greenleaf’s inn. He went to the market, only to leave at the sight of Ramona Greenleaf, although she had been alone. He heard no gossip, but it was difficult to listen for rumors when sitting alone in his house, and people desperate enough to need a witch or a healer were not inclined to chat or tell stories.

He would visit Theo again when he was certain his hopes were gone.

If Zeki grew sick of porridge, and his hearth did not compare to the warmth of the Greenleaf’s inn, it did not matter. And if he found himself weaving silly protective bracelets like the one he had made for Theo when they were both barely old enough to shave, he told himself he would take them on his next journey over the mountain and sell them for extra money.

The standing stone continued to call to him, even in his cottage at night.

When Zeki finally returned to the stone at the center of town, long past sunset, when only the stars offered him light, he saw more examples of Theo’s talent, as if new pastries had been offered every day.

Zeki scowled at them for too long, thinking up insult after insult and even a curse for whoever would deny Theo like this, who would keep him waiting.

He almost left a bracelet near the pastries for Theo to find, to cheer him up, but remembered himself and how that would look. Then he went home, to cold porridge and a cold bed, and an aching realization that Theo might lie in bed feeling the same, dreading another day of waiting.
