Noj smiled at Sarah before whispering something to her in Italian. Noj had a limited English vocabulary, but a strange side effect was that she spoke every other language in the world quite well. On a weird aside, since Jon had been taking French, she lacked some basic understanding of that language, but understood it's higher concepts beyond Jon's basic ability.
Sarah didn't know what Noj was saying, but it sounded smooth, almost seductive. She leaned in closer to Noj.
Then without warning, Noj started hitting Sarah causing her to drop the stone. Sarah didn't understand it! If this girl was Jon's opposite, Noj should be idolizing her.
Of course, while Jon showed love through affection, Noj expressed it through violence.
