She heard his sharp cry as she sped across the valley ground. Here she was just enjoying his company and he had to go spring something like that on her. Her green eyes stung in the sharp wind the accompanied her frenzied movements. But suddenly there was a huge shape braked in front of her and unfortunately she was not in the frame of mind to stop and so her eyes wide, she ran straight into the heavier equine and then stumbled back a step fairly dazed from the encounter. She shook her head once as he began to speak her eyes, still angry, fixed on his face. She listened as the words poured from his mouth and slowly the ice in her façade began to crack. Now she almost looked embarrassed, as she well should considering what she’d done to the poor boy. She took a step back again putting a little more distance between them, eyeing him in a different light now. Audits leaned forward a bit and she got that look like she wanted to say something but was too unsure what would come out of her mouth. So instead she fidgeted back and forth for a moment, almost ready to fly off once more. “I.. ” she paused, shamefaced, “I.. don’t even know..” now she was fairly stuttering while looking up as if the sky might provide some answer. “I’m not even sure..” finally she looked back down at him, almost apologetic, “I don’t even know if I’m capable of that emotion.” Getting that out she sighed, and then realizing how that might sound she stepped forward muzzle out-stretched to him. “Understand, I’ve been in the ‘Greens as a ghost for years. I was born and the first thing that happened is my brother, my twin, my other half died. Firelight did nothing for months but mourn the fact that her baby boy was dead. I stood in the shadow of his demise for years. I contemplated murder and suffering to ease my own hurt. I don’t even know what it means to have someone.. care about me. I don’t know how to.. ” abruptly she shut her mouth. She turned her face away from him standing frozen in the glow of the moon. She had let the words seep out from the darkest corners of her mind, that which had never been exposed to anyone had touched his ears. And so she remained a statuette, awaiting his response.
