Jasper listened to Kate. It was a strange concept to hear that her father would take in slaves, teach them, and set them free. Sure he had heard about some people lucky enough to have earned their freedom, but he had never thought it had been true. They had escaped somehow, slave owners weren't nice people, they didn't just let their things go. But Kate was proving that all wrong.<br/><br/>"What could you possibly learn from me?" He hadn't realized that he had spoken out loud at first, but when he did he gasped and bit his lip, averting his gaze from Kate's. How could he have let his guard down like that?<br/><br/>Doing as he was told, he looked back up to Kate at her last question.<br/>"I..." He sighed. "Could you choose please." He didn't want to make Kate do it, he was the slave and was suppose to follow orders after all, but he didn't think he could bring himself to have to make decisions like this, at least not yet.
