A Mystery of Light
Page 53
But her favorite tattoo belonged to Darcy. She had one with a cool skull with a rose stem going in the mouth and the flower coming out the right eye socket. Yoletzi had asked Melody if she could get that tattooed on her arm. She said no. Not until she was eighteen. That was forever away.
Yoletzi glanced over at Darcy, and there it was on her shoulder. The skull and rose stem were in green ink, the rose a dull red. It was so pretty. But Yoletzi didn’t want it on her shoulder. She turned her arm, palm up. She wanted it on her forearm. It would be perfect there. Not too easily seen but not too hard to find, either.
And as she envisioned it, it appeared, an exact replica of the one on Darcy’s shoulder. It was beautiful! Maybe she was like her parents, after all. Maybe their angel powers were rubbing off on her. She looked up to find Uncle Lear staring at her. His face was usually so bright and friendly, but not now. Now he looked at her like something was terribly wrong.
Yoletzi’s heart pounded, and she swallowed. The tattoo had disappeared.
