Ernest nodded, looking down at the book.
-
Mahina turned her attention back to the page, trying not to think about it.
-
"I'm sorry." Ernie murmured. "That you have to worry about those trials."
-
‘It’s fine,’ Mahina said. ‘Not your fault. And I doubt anyone else would find out, anyway..’ her voice faltered.
-
Ernest noticed the voice catch and looked up. "You alright?"
-
‘Yep, I’m fine,’ Mahina said, looking back down at her book. ‘Never been better.’
-
"Nope, that's a lie." Ernie grabbed her hand. "Don't lie to me."
-
Mahina glanced down at their hands. ‘I’m just scared. Of the whole, witches-being-burnt-at-the-state stuff.’
-
"I would be too." Ernest nodded. "But they're not going to find you all the way here, are they?"
-
‘I don’t know. That’s what scares me. What if they find out?’
-
Then you can curse them before you die. "Then I'll lie for you, be a witness of you being normal."
-
Mahina smiled softly. ‘I appreciate that.’ It didn’t really put her mind at ease, but it was a little comforting.
-
"Good. Or you could curse them all, either one works."
-
Mahina chuckled. ‘That works too,’ she giggled.
-
Ernie smiled, glad she seemed happier.
