The Curse
Boston, 1752We roamed free, our spirits unencumbered by greed.
But freedom always came with a price.
Place after place held the same individuals. They were stationary, planting their fields or building their shops, destroying in the guise of improving. Townspeople never lived, too consumed with finding happiness in arbitrary things.
The Romani knew true nirvana, for it lived in our hearts, not our coffers. When the time would come for my camp to move on to another town, not once had I wanted to stay and succumb to the prison that bound so many.
Until now.
Our happiness also became our curse. We latched on to love until it melded with our soul, in this life and the after. I would watch with sorrow those of my clan who found their person, the other half of their heart. No, I did not crave gold or jewelry as townspeople did. I desired to be complete– a desire that consumed me. But I was not one of the lucky few to find love within the Romani. My other half did not travel with us.
My love existed beyond our tiny caravan, and I had to trust that a gem lived in the decay most considered civilized society. I had begged Mama, and even Papa, to grant me permission to venture, but denial fell from their lips every time. My father would never allow his only child to marry a gorger: You marry Romani, or you do not marry.
This time, when our wagons stopped to stake our makeshift homes into the earth, my heart leaped with excitement. Papa's warnings about outsiders always rang with paranoia. But if my love were a gorger, I would not hesitate to act.
Maybe I would find the rest of my other half in the city by the sea.
"Your time will come, Miryah." Mama's words had become a mantra, words of hope. She did not believe as Papa, her soul romantic like mine.
"You always say the same thing." I slid a trunk from the wagon, and excitement shot currents under my skin. Maybe her prediction would finally turn to reality.
"These people will bring new challenges," she said with a hint of weariness. Her dark eyes searched the smoky black night, as if able to see the barest hints of daylight.
"Perhaps, but we will stay," Papa said, leader of our clan. No one challenged him– except for me. "Make a place for the others, Miryah. They will arrive in a fortnight."
"Yes, sir." I glanced at the full moon while I pulled more supplies from our old wagons. Wind blew strands of hair into my face, but it did not hinder my vision. A ring of light traced the moon's edge. The perfect time of night for enchantment. For spells. For change. I squeezed the medallion hanging from my neck as a chant escaped my lips: Love is divine, so as is mine. Wise of head, send my love to my bed. This medallion holds powers that bind, and the desire of the mind. His face will see mine, and love will bind.
Warmth rushed over my skin. This time, my love would find me.
