Episode 9.2: Charta

 

Recentiī iam sciēbant, et ūnum sciēbant: lapis in Aegyptō est, prope pȳramidēs. illūc via dūcit. et Salvius hoc quoque scit.

 

ē tablīnō tacitē exiērunt. Tiberius, quī ad iānuam servābat, chartam iterum in saccō posuit. "dēbēmus discēdere," inquit vōce parvā. "sed nōn statim."

 

tum, in viā, aliquid vīdērunt. puella in umbrā stābat, prope iānuam tablīnī, et Recentiōs tacitē spectābat. fīlia Salviī erat, nōmine Salvia.

 

Salvia nihil dīxit; Recentiī quoque tacuērunt. sed ūna quaestiō omnēs tenēbat: vīditne iānuam ex quā vēnērunt? vultus eius nihil mōnstrābat. sī vīdit, nunc aliquid habēbat quod patrī dīcere poterat; et hoc sciēbat, et Recentiī hoc sciēbant.

 

deinde Salvia in umbrā abiit, et Recentiī sōlī erant. sed nōn iam tūtī vidēbantur.
