Drabble for "Calcutta Adventure," when, at some point toward the beginning, Jonny catches a glimpse of the bad guy and calls for Hadji. I thought it was a cute little see-into-the-future moment...
I Follow You
"I follow you."
Three little words. That's how it began. Just three little words, spoken almost without thought in a crowded restaurant in the dirty marketplace of Calcutta. Three little words, so inconsequential that neither of them even gave them a second thought as they dashed out to catch the bad guy. Three little words, and none of them had any idea where they would lead.
It was those three little words that gave him a new life, following in the path of the brother who loved him and wanted him despite their differences, living in the warmth and security of a family he'd never dared to dream he might have.
Just three little words, and everything got better.
I'm so adopting from India when I grow up.
Let me know what you think!
