Chapter 2- unwanted feelings
Alanna froze. Why was she thinking that a feasts would be disastrous, why was she thinking bad things? She could not help herself everything seemed to just fall down in her mind. She wasn't ready to answer questions she didn't know the answers to, at least she felt she wasn't ready. She forced herself to push all those thoughts to the back and concentrated on the hands gripping her shoulders. George was looking in her eyes concern showing, she looked right back at him thinking only happy thoughts.
"Don't worry Lass we will not tell anyone else until you feel the time is right. Of course we'll want to notify Myles and my mother (what's her name??) about the news not to mention Coram and Rispah. We will not tell the tribe until you are ready"
He looked serious, he had known this would happen, he had known that Alanna would react this way. Thankful for George Alanna hugged him and kissed him lightly before turning to Halef.
"Halef Seif I would wish to inform my father and friends first before approaching my tribe and having any feasts I honour of George and I," she knew he'd understand.
"Of course Woman who rides like a man. Not until you are ready." He reassured her.
" And I would like to communicate with Jon and Thayet as soon as possible so they can be here." She was thinking fast, who else was important enough that she needed to notify them.
"um. Alanna are you ready to tell Jon?" George asked carefully.
"Of course I am, he is my best friend. I would tell him first if anything," she answered back calmly. Then it occurred to her, was she ready to commune with the Voice, was she ready to let Jon have a part of her which he could reach into and see her darkest and deepest secrets and fears. She'd already given up her love was she ready for this. "I am ready." She reassured herself
"Ready for what George and Halef asked in unison.
" I have decided that I am ready to commune with the Voice Halef, I shall come to the fire tonight, as I wish to be part of the tribe," She looked at Halef and stood her ground.
"Very well Woman who rides like a man, you shall have your wish,"
Alanna walked up to Halef and kissed him lightly on the cheek whispering a quick thank you. AS she walked towards the flap of the tent she touched Georges shoulder reassuringly and went to find her fellow Shamans. "Everything will o.k." she told herself "there is no need to worry."
