LEND ME YOUR HEART II

As they looked around the shop, the curtains leading out back Slowly drew to the side as a young looking girl walks out holding a long stick to support herself as her back was arched. Angel turned to the young lady and said to her.

    "Are you an oracle? Or is it oraclie? Whatever it's called can you help us?"

Then the young lady slowly raised her head up to see who was talking to her, and she the replied Angel in a dry and sour voice.

    "🗣️I know of what you seek and know of what you need to find it🗣️" 

Angel looked at her with eyes full of confusion as she asked.

    " Ok, I can understand the fact that your posture is a disability, but your voice kinda sounds old, I'm sorry but I got like a million questions in my head right now"

    " Oh, you mean the way I walk and talk, right?"

    " Excuse me, did you just........talk?"

    "Yeah, well you see if I stand up straight or just like talk with my normal voice people won't take me too seriously,  like you know? So I believe walking and talking like that makes me like, you know?, appear more wise, cause trust me baby girl, I got the gift but not the stature. 🗣️So what can I do you for?🗣️"

    " I thought you already know what we want"

    " 🗣️ Yes, yes, you seek a friend, lost in the deep abyss of magic, to retrieve his body you must lend me  his heart🗣️"

    " Excuse me? I'm supposed to do what? remember I cannot lend you his heart, why? You ask why? Well maybe it's because he's lost, it's not like I can look up to the sky and say hey Logan could you like lend me your heart ok, we need it to find you, no, no, no doe...doe...doesn't ring a bell, does it? Doesn't ring a bell that we told you,  he's lost, you know the arched back and dry voice isn't really working for you, is it?  you said we seek him, why in the world would we seek him if he's not lost? "

    " Angel?"

    " What is it now Richie? What is it?"

    " I think what she meant by heart, is love"

   " lov..........(stress of realization) oh love, Love? What doesn't love have to do wi...? Ohh you mean love, you see Richie you're Smart, that's why I brought you along"

The entire shop was left in silence for about a minute, then a weird smile slowly grew on Angel's face as she turned to look at Richie with even weirder eyes.

    " Angel?"

    " (;^ω^)Yes"

    " What's wrong with you?"

    " (;^ω^)Richie?"

    " Yes"

    " (;^ω^)What's the strongest type of love?"

    " True love, I guess"

    "ಠ,_」ಠ no,  it's love for your family"

   " Ok, so what are you suggesting? "

   " (;^ω^) I know someone he calls brother"

   " I thought he only knew you for like a week, how come he brought you to his house?"

    " (;^ω^)He didn't, I just secretively followed him home"

    " Fine, point proven, you're weird, but how is this helping us again"

    " It means we know his brother, we bring him here and boom, we find Logan"

    " Alright, Angel"

    " Oh my, thank you"
