Sorsha
As she lifts her head towards the sky, the twinkling stars seem to beckon to her. ~ One day, my love... one day... ~ Blinking her eyes, she shakes her head, biting her lips determinedly. ~ How can I go on without him?
Feeling a tug at her skirts, she looks down to see the puppy chewing at her skirt, its bright eyes gleaming innocently at her and its tail wagging furiously...against her will, a tear trickles down her right cheek and she hurriedly wipes it away. ~ I must be strong... for his sake.
Bending down, she pats the puppy gently, whispering ~ "Time to go, Puka." ~ In answer, the pup opens its mouth, panting excitedly, its tongue rolling out and tail wagging once more.
The two figures continue on their way, into the darkness of the night...
