Amboi

I'm standing in my kitchen watching my daughter leave for school. Coffee in hand, I go to my bathroom to get ready for work. I start to dream back to my first husband and our kids. When I was Amanda Hugh, maiden name Bittle. Married to Max Hugh for sixty-eight years. Died at the age of eighty-nine. Amboi.

Amogny (Ah-mog-knee) is the mediator of sorts in the Amboi world. He helps the transitions between lives go smoother, and even explains to newcomers what is going on. The only thing different between us and humans is that we live several lives. How many lives we have is unique to each Amboi.
