Sohalia
Little bits of paper and confetti floated by on the breeze, and Tarak finally stopped pouting as a gust sent one rolling by his hiding place. He pounced on the scrap and, upon finding it in his paws, trotted eagerly over to Soh, proudly displaying his catch and leaving it by her feet. The young griffin then hurried off, searching for more morsels to hunt.
Hiding a smile, Soh gathered the pieces that Tarak brought back for her even as she continued to work on her own. Lena's offer was kind, and the girl smiled with relief. "You have no idea how wonderful that sounds," she told her friend. She'd only been on her way to do paperwork and stew over recent life happenings, and neither of those sounded particularly appealing. "Maybe we can grab some lunch. Make an afternoon of it. If you don't have anything else going on, that is."
