Time Has Flown

One of the benefits of being away from everyone the past few months was avoiding the chance to get sick. There had been no reason for extra stress or lack of sleep, nor was she worried about the potential illness that had plagued the world. Silent had been walking along in her short life with no one but herself. A journey that was lonely at times, but that was usually short-lived.

As Bronze returned her height observation, her smile only grew a little more. The fact that he noticed made her feel seen, even if it had not been something she had thought about before. Rather than comment on it, she politely stayed quiet as he continued to speak. He spoke of his recent doings since their last run-in, how the pack had dispersed and his family had remained. “It has always been your home…I can see why you all chose to stay.” Though Silent was a wanderer herself, she was not close-minded. The mention of his sister’s sickness made her ears perk a bit more, her interest further piqued. “Oh no, Bronze…I’m sorry to hear that.” She took a few steps towards the tall man before stopping. “Would you like to talk about it?” Silent was doing what she rarely got herself: a shoulder to lean on and an ear to listen.
