A townsman walks up to another townsman…
TM1 “What? Tell me..”
TM2 “You see her?… What?? Who??.. Why do you smile?”
TM1 “Oh yes. I see her. Watch her now.. Watch her with the people around her. Children stray from their parents, spouses from the other, gravitating toward her. They know not that they’re even doing it. She’s 12!! Naturally they just want to make her proud of them. I don’t think they even understand why. I’ve never seen anything like it.
And this man..look.. he.. just the other day was run off by a woman trying to steal from her home. Watch him approach this little one.. Somethings telling him he must bow to her. She expects it not, but just the same knows he’s coming, and comes in sorrow now..I know she does, just watch her. So bad I wish to know if the girl knows already that the man is the town’s thief. Either way though.. he will walk away from her with a changed heart, ready to live a more honest life. I’m sure of it.
All of what I say isn’t from our moment here alone. I’ve seen it many many times and in so many ways. She’s a girl of very likeable natural. She has natural favor with the people. The people wish to just be close to her whereever she goes. They know she knows their heart, but they simply don’t know how. As she walks around change is with her. A change with these people.”
TM2 “How can this all be. She has no children!! Like you said- the girl is only 12 years old!!”
TM1 “Oh but it is. You watch her for any amount of time at all and you will know the whole town remains under her wing!!”
TM2 “You’re crazy. I will NOT be a part of this!”
.. for the man knew not that satan roams the same town as free as the innocently watched girl does.
To come…
TM1 “You haven’t watched her than!! She wishes NOT to be recognized, unlike every other damn person in this town!!”
