The Peacock 440

Francois says, "What was the gender of the voice."

Carol pauses between sips of coffee, as though to give this a good hard think.

"I don't think I can answer that."

"The voice doesn't have a gender;"

"I don't know."

"Did you recognize the voice?" asks Francois

"No.  But I heard it before.  In another dream.  And it was also calling my name, but only once."

"Can you remember the voice."

"Now, no.  But when I am asleep.  I know that voice.  Yes, I know that voice."

"What do you imagine you are being told through those dreams."

"I think right now, I'm afraid to find out."  then she looks at Francois with a sly, sweet little smile.  "And how about you, Francois?  What kinds of dream  have you been having?"
