Lek nervously approached the door to the healing room with a bouquet of flowers from the garden. He had picked the best flowers and had carefully removed the thorns from the rose stems. For the blue stone he could not find a chain, but he did find a leather string that could do until he could afford to buy a chain from a jeweler.

Lek knocked on the door. "Millie?"

Millie heard her brother's voice at the door. She sighed. He wasn't going to listen to anything she said. Millie glanced at Pinja. "Lek wants to speak with you, I will stay with you when he comes in."

"What does he want to talk to me about?" Pinja asked anxiously.

"I don't know, to be truthful. I only know he said he wants to help you."

"How could he help me?" Pinja asked. "Did he get me a veil or something?"

"Okay." Pinja was scared but she reminded herself that Lek had always been polite and kind, that she was not afraid of him... Or she didn't used to be afraid of him. Pinja forced herself to not think about what those men had done to her.

"I don't want him getting too close to me." Pinja said anxiously. "I know your brother would never... I just don't want him to know."

"He promised to not get too close." Millie looked at her worriedly. "Mama got ill with every babe, he may have figured it out on his own." Millie got to her feet and made her way to the door. "You can come in but don't get too terribly close."

Pinja's eyes widened. She did not want Lek to know! She was about to tell Millie to not let him in, that she wanted to hide forever from every male including Lek- but it was too late. Millie had already opened the door. Pinja trembled and sipped on the ginger tea.

Lek stepped inside and shut the door behind himself.

"I won't. If she doesn't want me to get closer I'll stay right here." Lek tapped the doorjamb. "I, er, picked this for you." Lek told Pinja, blushing slightly and holding the flowers to Millie to give to her.
