I leaned casually back on a tree as Sita teased me and watched them as one was being drug away by the other. Her remark was quite scathing but I took it all in stride, we're always ripping into each other. They whispered, giggled, whispered and giggled some more. There is no way I'd ever understand how they could do that, and the understanding that they have with each other after so long is amazing. The only thing I can do is shake my head in rueful silence.

Sita grabbed her friends hand and pulled her over to Adonis, "This is my dear friend Cholena, you could say she was my sister, " she then turned to Cholena, "This is Monon. He is a very close friend of mine." Cholena got a look in her eyes and looked at Sita questionaly who nodded her head then Cholena smirked and nodded her head towards Adonis, "Hello Monon, welcome to our village."

I looked at Sita suspiciously as they whispered but when Cholena greeted me, I turned a beautific smile in her direction and anwsered back in kind. "Like a sister, huh. So you two grew up together then. How 'bout we take a walk together. You know, get to know each other a little better." I was an outpouring of charm. I was being as nice as possible so that I could get her alone.....

Cholena looked at Sita cautisouly but Sita just nodded and looked back at the fire where her grandmother sat, "You two get to know each other, I need to catch up with my grandmother." Cholena looked at Adonis cautisouly also, for she knew what Sita told her, but nodded her head silently and turned to Sita, "I'll make sure to be back in a few." "Don't worry about it, but if the sun rises by the time you two get back, I'll be in my grandmothers tepee." She walked off smiling secretly, wondering.

Giving her a disarming smile, I walked over to her and took her arm in a familiar manner and started to walk in the opposite direction Sita went. Still being as charming as I could be, which is considerable, said, "So, you two grew up together, did you. That had to be fun......Tell me about you and yours."

Cholena pulled her arm away from Monon, slowly so as not to aseem as rude, "It was difficult, I mean I've only known her ten years. What would you like to know about me?" She clasped her hands behind her back but continued walking.
Sita sat next to her grandmother and asked her, "How has the village been since I left grandmother?" "It's been fine darling but it has not seemed the same since you left." Her grandmother looked after Adonis and Cholena, "I see the man has finally taken an interest in someone." Sita got a look in her eyes that her grandmother understood. She nodded silently and put her hand on Sita's cheek, "Don't worry dear, I'm sure." Sita smiled silently, almost sorrowfully at her grandmother.

I noticed how she pulled her arm away, that was okay, I was just being nice. "Well, I don't mean to be rude but what I really wanted to talk about was Sita....But, please, tell me about yourself and your childhood. I would be most interested." I cooled off on the charm, it was only to get her to talk with me anyways....but it wasn't needed. The people of this village are more trusting than the rest of the world is.

"My childhood is nothing, just simple and plain." Cholena looked back towards the village. She hoped that Sita would be alright with this. She was pretty sure that she was though, "What is it that you would like me to tell you about Minowa? I'm pretty sure that I can explain most anything about her to you."
Sita hoped that her grandmother was right but could ask no more since it was sunrise. She looked at the sunrise then walked into the tepee her grandmother had set up long ago for her. It was alittle ways off from the others and had a slight stripe pattern to it. She lay on her matt and looked at the buck skin roof, sighing deeply as she thought.

I absorbed what Cholena was saying but I was watching Sita enter the teepe. After she had disappeared from my sight completely, I turned back to the conversation only to say, "Oh, nothing in particular. I was just wondering what you could tell me about her."

Cholena shrugged, "There is much to tell and much to not tell. It would help greatly if you could tell me in paticular what it is that you would like to know." Cholena looked off and realized that she was acting more and more like Minowa. She smiled slightly.
Sita fell into a restless sleep after a few minutes of contemplating what she was thinking about before. She knew it was a hopeless chase that it was all just acting but deep down she knew that it wasn't for her and she hoped that it wasn't for them.
