selah walked back to where her and caleb had been sitting , the fire was still burning , red ambers sizzling , slowly she poured her cup full of water on the fire , she sat down in front of the fire again , she stared at the smoking ruins of fire , she imagined the wood as dry as hay and pictured the flames licking the wood , she watched as the water slowly sizzled away , and then the colors changing from yellow to orange to a bluish , the flame crackling the wood once again , as if no water had been poured onto it just seconds before .
