Silvertip Mountain Homecoming

Valette looked at him with her big hazel green eyes when he promised he would wait for her to return. She wanted to naively believe his words. Why was she so affected by it? Why did she feel the fluttering. No. Men weren't loyal, they would always leave. She had seen it many times. However it didn't show on her face. She was not that close with Ezekiel, but she did like him. He didn't make much of a fuss about things. He was calm and Valette liked that. "I'd like that," she admitted

He already wished her a good trip. Her ears fell back because she didn't want to go now. She rather wanted to chat a bit more, but she also realized she had a deadline. She wanted to reach the mountains before it was dark. "I promise I will tell you about it then," she spoke in return and smiled kindly at him. Because, well she hadn't told him a lot, hadn't she? She gave a quick nod, lingering a bit. "Okay. I will see you in a few weeks," she spoke as a soft goodbye.
