I Like It Better With You

Nalyda had been asleep for some time. Her right eye, after the storm when she was with Akemi, would never heal for the metal shard had slashed her eyeball and eyelids. Her crimson gaze shifted to see that her son, Naoise, was absent. She stood up right and sniffed around as she soon looked outside, just in time to see him trip and fall upon his back. She smiled and walked over to him, nudging his neck as she helped him back onto his paws. "Careful Naoise, the outside world can catch you off guard if you're not careful." She gave him a small lick on the cheek and lied down in the grass, her one good eye seeing the clouds, it would be a good day today. She yawned and looked to her son, "And such an adventurous pup such as yourself would need someone to keep an eye on you."
