Ever since her talk with Victor, and he'd told her what he planned to do, she felt the least she could do was get out and about, be more of a person and less of a homebody. Today was nice enough to be out and about, for her to take a walk and maybe get a cup of tea. There was a cafe not far from Victor's house that made a lovely cup of chamomile.

Unwrapping her scarf and stepping into the cafe, she breathed in the scents of jasmine and lavender, the former making her a bit homesick. She missed India almost every day, and even though she knew it didn't do any good to dwell, she couldn't help it. So she ordered the jasmine tea instead, settling her skirt around her as she found a chair next to the window.

"Jacob, then," she said, nodding. "I was...born, for lack of a better term, in New Delhi, in the Gauri Shankar Temple dedicated to Lord Shiva. In the midst of prayers and incense and dance, I opened my eyes and felt nothing but bliss. I joined the dancing, once I found my feet, and it was...like nothing I have felt before or since. They partook of me, and worshiped, and they were happy."

	It was breathtaking, the way she told the tale. Without realising it, he had leaned forward with his elbows on the table and his chin in his hands. "That's...beautiful," he whispered. (Reply to this) (Parent)
