The Laska Steps
Another scene from Higher Places

She massaged the knots in my shoulders but I could not relax.
“Don’t be afraid. There is no power here that can touch us.” she whispered.
I smiled even as my insides rebelled against her words.
She might be safe. Her God was more powerful than mine, more powerful than any god I had ever encountered.
But would His protection extend to me? These after all were the forbidden Laska steps.
“I’ll go first.” She said.
Before I could count ten she was at the top.
I followed and entered the place my people could never go. Our love had survived.

Yes.. I think sometimes we have to have that right partner to take us forward. Great that there was success.
🙂
Nice story. What is Laska steps?
In the story it is a place that the Seventh Son’s people are afraid to follow. The young man and young lady are fleeing for their lives.
Dear Joe,
Does this mean that the seventh son of the seventh son is about to meet the one true G-d? You left this open and that’s not a bad thing. 😉
Shalom,
Rochelle
As the story begins to coalesce I think the seventh son begins to realize he must choose a side and this of course sends his people into a feeding frenzy.
I’m thinking of their love as an invisible barrier against any problems, or perhaps that her God recognises their love and is therefore protecting them both.
I think you are on to something there, After all how could a God of love do otherwise?
Can’t wait for the next scene!
Hmm it might have to be another book!
Dear Joe,
A fine snippet of time from your tale. Well posted.
Aloha,
Doug
Thanks Doug and aloha back!
An interesting tale, Joseph. I look forward to more.
Joseph, Good story and well done. He was fortunate that she was strong and led the way. I love a great happy ending. Happy Holidays! 🙂 — Suzanne
Me too. If only this were the true end!
Interesting story.
