“I got it,” I said. I had found a doll maker on the back-streets of the French Quarter and ordered a Cherokee doll with long hair and yellow eyes. The porcelain, hand-carved doll wore traditional Cherokee garb and carried a bow and arrow just like Angie wanted. An entire wardrobe was being hand-stitched by a local woman, both modern clothes and more traditional garb. “It's a beauty. She looks like this Cherokee girl I saw in a mural. Her name was
Ka Nvsita
, which means dogwood.”
“Yes!” the little girl said. I could picture the fist in the air, a gesture she had picked up from her dad. “I love you, Aunt Jane.”
“I love you, too, Angelina.”
Beast purred.
Kits . . .
The phone clicked and I saw the CALL DISCONNECTED message. I raced outside for my bike, helmeting up as I ran.
