Her mother arrived in a hurry, kicking the snow behind her with a look of worry upon her ebony and alabaster features. Doubt crossed the girl's mind for a moment. Should she even be leaving? She had only called for the rainbow woman and already she was worrying. How would she cope with her daughter leaving, never seeing her around the pack? Calm, she told herself, exhaling a silent sigh. It'll all work out just fine.
Her lips curved upwards in what appeared to be a small smile - a genuine one, not a taunting smirk. Now that she thought about it, she was actually going to miss her mother, but that didn't stop her from going ahead. She aimed to nuzzle her mother's cheek - the first affectionate gesture she had given out of her own accord. Perhaps it would seem a bit odd, though she didn't want to rub her mother's fur the wrong way. Maybe if she played nice her proposition would be accepted. "Mum..." she started awkwardly, unsure of her wording. How did she say this in the nicest way possible? "Uh...you know Riv?" Duh, of course she did; why did she even have to ask that?
