After washing and cleaning myself I wait around the compound in the late night.
Sending a prayer out, a wave of gratitude hits me.
'Come here'.
She doesn't sound like she wants to kill me today, or hurt me too bad.
I smile, I hope she doesn't try and kill me today.
The road to Heela floats above me, and I follow it to the dining area.
Three Luccies in the bodies of three old smiling Terran men.
Heela doesn't wear an expression.
Her eyes as dead as can be.
"Sit and eat".
I do as she says, and politely sit down without dragging my chair, and begin eating, using a rising blindness to keep Lucci from jumping into my head.
I am sitting to the left of Heela.
Enjoying the delicious berries first.
All three Luccies stare at me as I eat.
I can feel the scratching on the wall that is my mind.
The silence is comforting.
"How are you today"?
