A beautiful young woman lied in her master's dark covered bed. The bed had graceful curves decoded in a black drapery; the raven painted post were hand carved that had been repainted in a dark violet. She waited awake trying to fall asleep, but worrying thoughts raced through her head. Her soft red eyes swayed to the window she witnessed the snow linger on the glass, her ears heard the moaning of the wind it gave her life hearing the wind it gave her confidence. Her pale eyes began to fall trying to close, she would struggle to keep them alive and awake. Stay awake Abi for... Kanna's sake yes for Kanna's sake. Abi thought to herself. She pulled her raven colored hair away from her colorless body.
Her ears then again heard the wind groan in horror. She swayed back in forth with her long glistened hair weaved through the soft air. Tears gracefully kissed her pale face that remained emotionless. She gently heard the voice of a small child. The voice sounded as if there was no emotion flowing through it, no life in it. Kanna… "Kanna it lifted from her piercing voice. Her eyes lifted in alarm, I have no reason to weep. I never had and yet I do.
Kanna pushed herself onto the dark covered bed. She gently shifted her silver comb towards Abi. "He should be back," Kanna reassured. "You want me to comb your hair" Abi asked as she grabbed the comb that had been tucked under the dreary blanked. "If you wish, it is probably what master would have wanted." Kanna's timed voice clarified.
Abi's thoughts had begun to leave her sick mind. Her eyes wandered towards Kanna's snow colored hair. "so, why have you not fallen to sleep?'' Akao asked as she gently raised the comb to untangle the child's hair. "I have no reason as do you" Kanna replied trying not to sound inferior to her masters bride.
Kanna lay asleep on her master's bed; her pale hand lied on Abi's stomach. Abi knew that even though Kanna was asleep she could feel the child's kicks.
