Chapter 12: The Last Night
Chiyo's answer came on the last night, tied to the tail of a trout.
Kohaku handed it to Shizuku over the supper table, and Ryugen pretended not to read it over her shoulder.
"She says four of them will come," Shizuku said. "The two old women from the well, the miller's widow, and the blind man who sold my father his seed. They'll stand with her at the front of the crowd."
"Good."
"She says my uncle's hired six men with staves and the priest has a silver bell the size of a bucket."
"Less good."
"She says she loves me and I'm to stop getting killed."
He smiled, but only with his mouth.
They ate in silence after that.
Kohaku cleared the dishes and kissed the top of Shizuku's head as she went, which she had never done.
Shizuku had to look at the ceiling for a while.
When they were alone, Ryugen set down his cup.
"Come to bed," he said.
