"What's your name, lamb?" had been the first words to be uttered. The nickname made little sense at the time: she was in disarray, her too-long and too-dirty hair hanging in strings over bony shoulders. Lambs, from what she knew of them, were pure things, fluffy and white and precious. She was none of these things, certainly not in the presence of that impossibly beautiful face. There was no shame in it — she'd known nothing else. Had nothing else. Her father died alone on a dusty Saturday evening. From afar she watched, took note of the dark, silken strands, the easy shrug of strong shoulders. Commit them further to mind, stained them into her memory so that when she drew them forth on another day, another time, she could imagine her father laying crumpled on rocky asphalt in a pool of his blood, life ebbing away with each passing second. Cold and alone. |
