Chapter 8:
Aisha Greyrat
AISHA WAS A BORN GENIUS. By the time she became aware of her surroundings, she could understand words and imitate the things her mother Lilia taught her without issue. Very early on in her life, she was able to understand why she had to do things. Cleaning, laundry, language, math, history, geography, and science—she really could do everything. She was an invincible, perfect superhuman.
And that twisted her. It created a giant weakness in her. She simply couldn’t understand the feelings of those who weren’t as capable as her. Aisha always judged a person, including whether she liked or disliked them, based on their abilities.
She didn’t know how to like someone unless it was logical. She didn’t understand love. Yet she, of all people, fell in love with someone completely removed from logic.
Of course that led to issues.
