The Sound of One Crow Laughing

Mark and Dae are having another Go lesson. Dae's been waiting for it all week, and he's being so patient about learning the whys and hows of the game, and so eager. Not attached to winning so much as to playing. I'm proud.

But I can't be in the room while they do it; something about the silence heavy with attention makes me too edgy to sit still, and I don't want to be the stone that ripples their pond.

Time to curl up in bed and read.
