I had her saddles done.. and I wanted to take them to her.. I knew she had been sick.. and everyone was worried.. and I wanted to see for myself...So off I went with the two girls saddles.. my butterfly marks on each one.
Rook was there.. and I asked if maybe I could see her for just a minute.. Cause I needed to explain the saddles to her. Even if she was not really awake.. maybe she would hear me anyway.. I don;t know about these things. but heck it was worth a try right?
He smiled and let me pass...I could see her laying there. barely nothing. and it broke my heart in two... so I pulled myself up by the back of my britches.. and stood over her..
Ok Cana I got these saddles down for you.. But you have to be the one to show the girls how to use them.. and You have to be the one that teaches them all you know about riding.. So now its time to get up.. and brush yourself off.. and move on with your life.. I know you are hurting. and I bet you think if you just lay there long enough you will find B.. but thats not gonna happen.. Your just dreaming cause your mind is hurting along with your heart.. You have 6 babies here all needing their Mama... You want Ayg to raise them? :if anything that should at least make her stir:
Whatever has a hold of you does because you are letting it.. Where is that tuchuk spirit.. tell it to go to hell and leave you alone.. You have more important things to do... So.. I will expect you to be at the pens in the morning... with these two new saddles.. and I will bring the babies... :her hands on her hips as she fought back the desire to cry.. : Please Cana.. :she whispered: come home...
I turned around and left the wagon.. and looked at Rook.. thank you for giving me a little time.. The old warrior nodded.. and went back inside to wait for either a healer or spex to get there..
