Maya sat in the backseat of the car, trying to keep her mind clear of words.
She and Parker had agreed to talk later, when his family wasn't around. And now they were sitting in his parents car, a tense awkward silence filled the air between them, which made it really hard for Maya's mind to keep quiet.
She was now almost certain that Parker had been in the realm with her. The only other possible explanation Maya could think of was that she had gone insane. But Maya didn't want to think like that and instead decided to try something...
Seriously? Parker's voice said in her head
Yeah, that was a dumb idea.
Parker shot her look I can still hear your thoughts.
Are they always this... focused?
Hm?
I can't stop hearing them, and they're all so organized. You only think one thought at a time, and you don't even seem to be trying. Like now. You're sort of gently wondering what I mean instead of having everything else in your mind begging for your attention.
Maya turned to look out the window.
So that's what it's like in his mind? Sounds difficult.
But Parker's mind stayed silent, not replying to Maya's thoughts. Or maybe it was, in a thousand different ways all at once and she just couldn't hear it. But Maya could still hear a sort of static noise. Maybe it had been his thoughts all this time, and not the car's engine.
Maybe it is. Or maybe we're both just insane.
And that made Maya smile.
