Many Mouths
EarthTipos InterpersonalMentalDescrição
The evening air was cool on his neck as Noki stepped inside. Around the table, the glistening eyes and pursed lips of his children glowed in the light of a dim flame. The children scrambled, hand and foot, to swarm around him, clamoring for attention.
“Sadako would not stop crying today.” “Yuki slapped me, father!” “I want to see the cherry blossoms again. When will it be spring?”
The circle fell silent as he produced a small stone jar and, cupping it with both hands, brought it reverently to the table. Each of the children produced a small wooden bowl and held it, their hunger palpable in the darkness of the hovel. With a sigh, Noki removed the lid of the jar, took in the scent of jasmine, and ladled a mouthful into each child’s bowl. In moments, each bowl was empty yet again.
“That’s all for now. We’ll need the rest for tomorrow morning.”
