So This Is Goodbye

Bowen, upon hearing that they were moving far away, asked if she could tell her friend goodbye. Accompanied by her mother, the small girl moved to the border of Abaven lands. Resin sat back a ways, giving the girl her privacy. Bo was a little sad. This was going to be a great adventure, but she and Haiku had just met. Now she had to say goodbye. It just didn't seem fair.

Raising her little liver colored nose, the girl howled for her friend. She was careful to stay outside of the border, but she sat really, really close to it. All she had to do now was wait. Wait to say goodbye. She had to wonder if they would ever see each other again.
