Editing PERSONAL NOTES:The Family (section)

===Year of the Sun 1235 Fidelity 20===
It is once again my birthday. I am 24 today. It has been eleven years since my Power came to me. So much has happened. I know I will never be the same again. The last three months with Zafar have worn on me. He requests at least once a week that I quit performing. But it is the only way I get time free of him. It has taken all of my skills to be able to report to the Family undetected.

Now the Father says that I am to comply with Zafar’s wishes and quit performing. I am to do one last job. And that is to sing for Waseem and Zaina on their wedding day. I am to tell Zafar this piece of information in hopes that it will draw him out. Until the day of the wedding I can perform. Then it’s over. I hope I get a break before then. The wedding isn’t until Bounty on Harvest Day. I don’t know if I can handle another three months with Zafar. He hasn’t been rough since the first night and has apologized for it but I find him repulsive. I know something dark lurks beneath his pristine surface.
