Like the cream she put on the Babka she made with her grandmother back in Warsaw. It was clear but for a few clouds smudged into the powder blue sky. There was the sound of tea boiling‚ because that’s what

Meehah turned to her‚sitting the trident and the cloth she had been using to shine it down. "Whale you stop your blabbin’"‚ that made Feferi cry harder.

How could he just treat us all like we were cattle as if it was nothing? The speedometer crept up to 60 miles per hour. Didn’t he care that people everywhere were starving? How could he do this?

It seems like forever since I have written to you‚ but I have thought of you all the more. It is horrible here in the trenches.
