Haima's House, 4AM -
Haima stares at her bedroom ceiling, watching the fan spin round and round. She's too distracted to sleep. The shuffling of Barns down the hall keeps her awake.
She was sensitive to the things around her - blood, flesh, and bone specifically. And from the room Barns was staying the night in, she could sense the tension and unease in his blood.
All her life, it is as if she has a constant 3D scan of every living creature near her. Respectively, she could sense Barns' frustration as he rolls around in the sheets.
