All Alone

Disappointment was evident as the squirrel scampered away. The yearling had no hopes in catching it, but it had never hurt to try. He was determined to one day catch it. He had totally forgotten that they were looking for his lost sister. She'd been gone for ages, and though he missed her terribly, his attention span still got the best of him at times. Head popped up and looked at his mother as she called his name. Tail wagged furiously behind him and a smile lit his face up like a beacon. He trotted over to her his attention back to the task at hand.
Sorry Mama. The squirrel wanted to be eaten, ya know?"
He joked lightly. He was already promising to be an interesting yearling. Tough to control, but even then he stilled listened to his mother. He loved her dearly, even if he some times put her through hell and back.
"Do ya think we'll find 'er Mama?"
His voice became more serious now as he gave her a worried look. It'd break his Mama's heart if they couldn't find her, and his own would be broken if they found her dead. He hoped for her to be alive. She was his flesh and blood after all.
