Back when days were simple

She still hadn't really processed anything that had happened recently. She was still in denial that their mother was actually gone. The challenge was barely a blip on her radar. She couldn't stand to see her father in the state he was in so she had avoided his den at all cost. She hurried past his alcove on her way in and out of their family den and she spent her day trying to find and do anything that might distract her. Everything had been so quiet lately and in a way it felt like the fallout from everything that had happened had just left a dead space in its wake. She hesitated for a moment at the entrance to their dens. Something felt different... but she couldn't put her paw on it. Baine slowly padded into the shade of the dens, her ears flicking back against her head from the uncertainty that she felt over what she might find. As she slowly passed her father's alcove she hesitantly peeked inside and saw her brother curled next to their father... who was more still than he should have been. She stopped and stared for a moment while the realization slowly settled over her. Baine padded closer without really realizing it and dipped her head down to nudge her father's cheek like she was going to wake him up, but it was useless. A whine left her and she slowly sank to her haunches while she tried and failed to swallow back the tears that built up in her pale pink gaze. |
