He was entirely too smart for his own good. That had always been clear to Elisabeth. His question was an excellent one too. [b]“Yes, they make the same sound. Just depends on where they are in a word or sentence.”[/b]

Elisabeth had felt it too – the electricity. It had been undeniable, yet she couldn’t fathom what it was from. It wasn’t something she had ever felt before and yet when she looked at him, that beautiful earthen gaze, she knew that he was feeling it too.

Shaking her head gently, she pressed on, laughing as he called her a teacher. [b]“I guess I am….but only for you. I don’t think anyone else would get me to agree so readily.”[/b] He then asked her how their names looked. Turning the parchment over, she wrote ‘Eliasbeth’ first and ‘Ezner’ right underneath it, pointing out and explaining what he was seeing. [b]“This here is my name – Elisabeth. Right here, is Ezner.”[/b] Passing the parchment and pencil to him, she nudged him again. [b]“Try writing your name?”[/b]

The question about their names and ‘E’s’ struck her heart. On one hand, what a beautiful mind he had…but the thought he expressed was just so very sad. Laying her head gently on his shoulder, her words were softly spoken. [b]“No…I think that’s just how it turned out. But it’s ok. I found you and we will make things right.”[/b]
