Love across the centuries

Chapter 13

I'm on a freaking roll!

Step 2: convince Makkari she likes Druig

Well, considering step 1 was a bust step 2 has to work. So, I walk off to where I last saw the speedster and try and think of what I am going to say to her. As I get closer to our latest home, I spot her sitting on a chair and eating some sort of pastry. I summon all my sign language knowledge and start signing

S: Hey Makkari, how are you?

M: I'm good, what's up?

S: As much as that sounds lovely you really don't talk to me much so, no?

M: Well, ok then, I'll just get to the point then, I think you and Druig are meant for each other

S: Wow, really?

M: Yep, I think you guys would be perfect together

S: As much as I appreciate it Sersi, have you asked Druig

M: Yes, I have

S: And what did he say?

M: "Wow you caught me, how was I so obvious"

She just laughed at that

S: Why do you both keep laughing at me?

M: Because we are already together and you are trying to tell people already in love, that they should be in love

S: What?

M: Yep, we have been together longer than I can remember

S: Why didn't you tell us?

M: Why should we have to, it's not like we hide it, we wear rings, call each other endearments, and don't shy away from kissing or holding hands

S: Well, how have I never noticed

M: You are so busy with your life that you don't take the time to notice

And with that I walked away from another conversation

I couldn't keep this to myself, I don't know why but I feel like the others have less of a clue then me and I need to share, so let's go find the others

I find the others sitting at the table eating what I can only assume is some sort of stew. And without even grabbing a serving I just sit and look at them all

"What's up Sersi?" Kingo asks

"What's up is that Makkari and Druig are married" I said looking for their reaction but there was none
