The pale woman gave a small nod at the stranger's reassurances, but she wouldn't respond right away. She knew it was all in good intentions, or at least most likely was, but Kalli's pride knew no bounds. There was a pause and then the woman gave her name as well and Kalli would say it to herself silently. Fiamette. It was a gorgeous name. If only she could see the woman to see if her looks matched the name. Kalliope noticed that Fiamette's voice had gotten closer, but Kalli wouldn't flinch away. Instead, she was too distracted by Fiamette's comment about the fog to be worried about whether this woman was too close to her. Kalliope scoffed quietly and turned her head in the direction that she thought Fiamette was, her blank stare looking in the woman's direction. "I'm afraid the fog isn't really the problem. I wish it was as simple as the fog. I was born completely blind." She wondered sometimes if her eyes looked just like everyone elses eyes. No one ever seemed to catch onto the fact that she was blind until she told them. |
