Vervain
”That doesn’t mean you can’t get washed away by the monsoon,” Vai points out with a playful wink that hides her concern, and she shuts the door behind him once he’s walked inside. The closest surface will be the coffee table in the middle of the living room, but she beckons for him to follow her into the kitchen where she can make sure nothing burns. There’s a pot of stew bubbling on the stove, Vai moving to stir it and turn down the heat before turning her attention to Samuel.
Her eyebrows raise a little at learning he’s come to see her, and she moves to sit at the kitchen table, gesturing for Sam to take a seat as well. ”Is everything okay?” she asks, a smile tugging at her lips. ”You’re welcome here any time, of course. I’ll put on a pot of water and we’ll have some tea. Though I’m not sure what there is to know about me.” She laughs.
