Walking with Strangers

[Anu]

no fail, and short too

Anu couldn’t remember much of her time in the boarders of Dahlia, they had been so brief. She had wanted to forget the embarrassing episode of the meeting at the house, and how she had turned tail and ran for her life. Rather then standing her ground Anu had resorted to the coward the hid in her being’s shadows. She watched the scowl, and her head was drawn back at the sight of it. Anu hadn’t thought that she had been too rude, but then against the air surround the stranger was something that Anu hadn’t faced in some time. It was hostile, and made Anu hold her ground. Even the question Sabeen raised wasn’t filled with the friendly flavor. Following her gaze, she kept from stumbling for an answer. But she wasn’t even sure why she was out so late in the middle of neutral ground. Anu had no idea what brought her there, though the brief idea she had was a secret that she wouldn’t reveal It’s a pleasant night… Her voice trailing until she gathered the courage to question, I don’t suppose you belong to Dahlia?
