Another Language

I nodded my head and looked around my room. Slowly my brain started working again. Where are my parents? They’re not here!

Sweety calm down. It’ll be ok, I’ll find them. Blake said, taking me in his arms.

How? Oh.. They’re gone forever arn’t they?? I was basically in hysterics.

“Aea, they are fine. I’d know if they weren’t. Now clam down a minute sweety.” Blake whispered in my ear then let me go and returned to the Fate still laying motionless on the floor.

I hugged my knees to my chest as I tried to understand what Blake was saying to the Fate. I didn’t realize until a few minutes later it was in another language. I felt silly then, but still focused on Blake and the Fate just to keep my mind from wandering.

After about 15 minutes, Blake muttered some words and the Fate went slack. “What’d you say to it?” I asked.

“I asked it about your parents. They’re alright and I know just where to find them. Shouldn’t be to hard. Come on.” With that he pulled me out of my room.
