Mama?

Gabriel whimpered, tail tucked rather pathetically between his legs, sniffling softly in the corner. His tiny shoulders trembled in their utter sorrow and he looked for all the world like a tiny broken toy. He didn't understand why they hadn't woken him up. he didn't understand why they left him behind. It broke his tiny heart, maybe they just didn't like him! Was it because he wasn't as pretty as his brothers and sisters? Was it because the only trait of his moms was his one blue eye! He whimpered. He heard the soft footfalls of his mother, and tensed at the snarl, was she mad at him for sleeping? He hadn't meant to sleep so late! Maybe he should apologize before she got any angrier! But the snarls ceased and suddenly her tongue was on his cheek and she was tugging him out of his corner, curling around his tiny body. For some reason this only made him cry harder. He buried his snout into the soft fur of her chest, wailing all of his sadness into her fur, he barely even heard her soft spoken words. he sniffled, attempting to regain some semblance of himself, but he refused to pull away from his mama's comforting warmth. "Why'd they leave without me mama? Why do they hate me?" His words came broken and garbled, chocked through his tears. He didn't understand why he was singled out, he just didn't understand! Hadn't mama gone with them? Hadn't she left him all alone too? Did that mean the rest of them were back? Would they see him crying? He sniffled one last time and forced his tears to stop, but he could not keep the sadness from his gaze, nor would be pull away from his mama's chest.
