Won't you open a window sometime?
What's so wrong with the light?
There's an unmistakable quietness that comes with snowfall, winter is usually a frigid season that leaves the heart wanting the small company of others, a distraction. The silence that came with snowflakes only seemed to amplify this feeling.
It had taken so much effort to overcome old fears, to be able to leave her den without getting a few feet away from it and falling out in a full blown panic. Haylyn had once been so brave, so able to look past anything in her way, but these past years seemed to drag on. It was like all the feeling of failure she was able to look past was now finally catching up to her, and the thought was forever frightening.
Her children would come to mind, and though she had hardly seen them, Hashmal would visit from time to time. The sweet boy kept her company with stories of birds and his own little brood. Cappella, still a sore spot, one she thought was better to stay away from. She had been a toxic environment for the girl. Let sleeping dogs lie. Ghost was expecting a brood too she'd heard from some chatter here and there, but she hadn't seen him, Weiss, or Wheatley in sometime. Would they think any less of her as a mother?
Dainty paws tested the frozen, snow covered ground, and the chilly air greeted her with a sweep of snowflakes against her cheeks that caused her eyes to flutter for a moment. A deep breath, this was all apart of the routine, and she'd take her first few steps out of her warm den. Taking a page out of her son's book, she settled herself by a tree to watch little red cardinals hop about on the branches of the jacaranda trees above.
The sound of crunching snow alerted the woman to unexpected company, blue eyes widened for a moment and she stood hastily. "
I- I." The page stammered, a deer in headlights. "
I was watching the birds. Would you like to join me?" A small bow of her head, you're in the presence of your son. Your
King.
