embrace this life

Satire found herself at an interesting crossroads. Curious, but laid-back. Relaxed, yet yearning for adventure and to see the outside world. It was mostly internalized, but she occasionally caught herself glancing at the entrance of the day and wondering if and when she could see the world beyond. She had been gazing out when her mother started to shift, a wide and carefree grin lighting her features with a soft puff of her chest. She glanced at her littermate, a soft giggle at Shae’s words. She was so loud.

While she liked her father, her mother was her favorite person to curl up against. Still, it didn’t stop her from making her way over to him upon hearing Shae’s words to join in on the action. She never wanted to miss out on something like that, after all. “Yeah, daddy, wake up!” She joined in on her littermate’s antics as her tailed wagged from side to side, butting her head against her father’s stomach in an encouraging manner.

There was just so much to see and even more to do! She didn’t get that feeling that the morning was different, she just liked when her entire family was awake and interacting with each other. Forgotten in that moment was the yearning she had been experiencing in the peaceful bliss of the morning silence, and her entire attention was cast to the situation at hand.
