Daja sat staring out the window of her room back in Winding Circle, thinking about Kel. Kel was really far away, Daja knew, yet she still expected her to pop in at any time. "Still think'n 'bout Kel?" drawled Briar from the door. "That was four months ago! Get over it!" "Whatever." "Really, Trader, get back to your senses! She's in a different WORLD!!!" "Whatever." DAJA, stop saying that d*** word!" "Whatever." "ERRRR." said Briar as he stalked out of the room. "Whatever." Tris was the next to interrupt Daja's thoughts. "Daja, stop sulking." "Whatever." Tris left without a word. Soon Niko came up. "Daja, listen to me-" "I'm tired of people bothering me! Just shut up and go away, you, you, you kaq!" "Daj', listen to him please," pleaded Briar. "Yes. Anyways, we have figured out how to cross worlds also, so you can talk to Kel," announced Niko. "Really?" asked Daja, sitting up. "Yes. Shall we try it?" "Yeah!" "Well, let's meet on the wall in ten minutes, okay?" "Yeah!" Niko and Briar left as Daja started tiding up her room. Maybe she could talk to Kel. Maybe.
