Dhiren was still distraught over the new babies coming. He had already revealed his feelings to Song, but the confession hadn't changed how he felt about it all. There would be new puppies who needed attention from the parents he had rarely seen in the past anyway. He knew that love existed for him and his sisters, but it still hurt to see them have babies. With those thoughts in mind, he wandered endlessly. His three black and one white set of paws carried him away from the den where his mother currently rested. He wanted to be far from the former place he slept in as a pup with the thoughts he had on his mind. Even though he loved Song, he needed to keep the negativity away. Eyelids draped heavily over gold and silver eyes as he kept his head hung with each step feeling like lead. Depression had swept over the boy and he let it stay like a raincloud. He felt completely alone. As he continued to pad alongside the stream that flowed throughout the packlands, a familiar scent met his nose. Slowly, through the rain that mentally fell over him, Dhiren saw light. The scent became stronger and it triggered in his mind that Canta was nearby. His eyelids rose like a stage curtain and he looked around for the ebony girl. It didn't take long for him to seek her out in the woods and he abandoned his trail of sadness and jealousy to approach her. "Canta!" he called out, despair and eagerness rolled into one evident in his voice. To see someone who hadn't been around recently was a godsend and he silently thanked the gods above for his sister's presence right then. After a few seconds of walking around the stream to reach the other bank, he reached her side and nuzzled her neck with a tender movement. "Canta...I've missed you." It was a true fact, despite living in the same area as she did. When he pulled back to meet her gaze, he saw the sadness that surrounded her irises. "What's the matter?" he softly asked, for he feared that if he asked in a regular tone, he would scare her away. Speech, |
