Lena
even when no one was looking
I was still kind
I was still kind
Content with how things had gone, Mittens swallowed the worm down whole – pleased with itself. From there, it lowered back down to the ground, rumbling about in the dirt so that it looked..well…like a muddy snowball.
Lena patted the top of Sol’s head absentmindedly, half-occupied by writing and then lectures and food. Zavien’s statement had her blush, because she did have to often remind herself that it wasn’t just her out there in the midst, running and racing around. Still, she also didn’t like to be a burden to others, and seemed stuck in between doing everything herself or becoming greatly overwhelmed. “Thank you,” she offered in return, finishing up one card and then grabbing another, intending to start on the benefits of peppermint.
But her inquiry seemed to have cause a greater multitude, and she glanced back up, watching and gauging his reaction as he fell into silence. The notions behind the reaction weren’t what she expected – but knowing Koa, who always seemed to be the great romantic, he’d manage to dodge all the greater, more painful swells. “Oh, I’m sorry to hear that.” He’ll find someone measured its way through her mind, but she didn’t say it out loud – afraid, really, that it would come across as handwaving the aspects away. Or he wouldn’t, and he’d have time to grow on his own. “I’ll make sure to get him some extra goodies, the next time we’re all available to talk.”

with all of my heart
even when it is invisible
even when it is invisible
