There's an Empty Road to Rediscover

Tiburtius felt tired. Truly tired. His expression held such deep sadness and his shoulders slumped with the weight of it all as he watched his brother walk away. Again. He couldn't bring himself to call out to him again. It felt like he was talking to deaf ears. A sigh would pass his lips while he watched the slate blue and white figure disappear into the distance. He'd blink back the tears that had welled up in his eyes and he turned back toward home, his paws feeling like they each weighed a hundred pounds. His head hung low and all he could think about was distant memories of him and his brothers as pups, play fighting and joking around together. That felt like a different life time. He avoided going toward his mothers' den entirely, instead making his way toward the one he was now sharing with Arivae. He didn't want to face his mothers just yet. Not after that. He barely wanted to face Arivae, but he needed to be with someone and he could only hope that she would just let him lay in silence with her for a while. |
