Summary
With trembling fingers, Wumuti traces the mark carved into it.
It’s just under her navel — a horned heart spreading out its tendrils, the color of healing flesh still tender. Tender enough that a careless touch makes Wumuti wince. It’s a different kind of pain, though, from when she’d sliced through her skin two days ago, muffling pained whimpers into Haru’s dirty shirt and bleeding everywhere. A different kind of pain from her other tattoos.
After Haru's coming of age ceremony, Wumuti fulfills her long-lasting wish.
