Summary
“Isn’t it fun to learn the guitar?” Rose asks.
“Yeah… It’s fun.”
“That’s good! Juleka told me you were catching on quickly. I bet you’ll be a great guitarist in no time!”
Zoé smiles awkwardly. “I don’t know… but I have a great teacher, at least.”
In fact, Zoé isn’t sure. She struggles to disentangle Juleka’s instructions from the sensation of Juleka’s fingers against her hand. And she struggles to separate Juleka’s words from the warm but quiet voice she says them in. She doesn’t know what she’s actually learning, because all of it is tangled in the realisation of how much she enjoys Juleka’s company. But if a teacher is defined by the feeling they give you, Juleka is the greatest teacher in the universe.
She’s less jealous of Rose than she thought she’d be. Because Rose is kind and lovely and cheerful, and she makes Juleka happy. Just like Luka, Rose can call out the Juleka that lies underneath the surface. But it’s the one that’s comfortable with touching, with feeling and being felt, with loving openly.
---
Zoé starts taking guitar lessons from Juleka, and quickly gets more than she bargained for - when she falls in love with both Juleka and Rose.
