What A Nuisance

Maria waited, hoping that Shadow would accept her request. She was afraid of being rejected, of being turned down and pushed back to the path of loneliness she had known. If she was alone then what? What would become of her? She was tired of it... And part of her, she supposed, was afraid of being alone. Since her father died Maria had been hoping, praying for some sort of change. But she was afraid to initiate it on her own. Shadow was her chance... Her chance out of here... Her chance to a new life and new friendship.
But when Shadow spoke it was not exactly the response that Maria was hoping to hear. She wasn’t sure what this really meant for her... But thus far Shadow didn’t seem to be too bad. Fun? No, maybe not. But he was certainly company for her, and thank goodness for that. The female would nuzzle up to Shadow quietly. He seemed to be drifting off to sleep... And she was on the way to the world of slumber as well. Tomorrow would bring a new day... A new start for their journey together.
