SASHA led him inside the house, where the boys walked across a proper wooden floor and scrubbed their hands with soap and warm water in a room with plaster walls and an enameled basin. Constantine sat in a chair and scratched his face as he swung his legs under a kitchen table draped with a decorative cloth. He’d seen these things through windows and behind curtains. He wasn’t prepared for how warm the fire felt at his side, how comforting the baking bread smelled, or how pretty Sasha’s mother ...would look in her lavender apron.
Sasha’s mother put a plate in front of Constantine and then pulled his hood back from his head. This suit had a gray fur hood with floppy rabbit’s ears at the sides.
“We don’t wear hats or hoods indoors,” Sasha’s mom whispered in Constantine’s ear, brushing his hair back with her hand. He blushed and smiled up at her as he sat on his hands and then returned his eyes to the food.
They ate biscuits, and beans, and fried eggs, and crispy portions of pork.
