Redhawk Caldera the quiet child

It seemed to take forever to reach his father, but the pup crawled on, determined to find its way there. It would succeed, eventually, wouldn't it? However, it seemed that its goal only moved further away instead of getting closer, which was frustrating.

The pup halted for a moment, falling still on the ground while it looked around, at its father and the distance between them. It was as if the pup gave up for a moment, as if the effort was too big now that his father was moving away, and it had decided that it was never going to reach its goal and therefore it would stop trying.

However, after a second or twenty of sitting on the ground motionless, the pup started again and crawled onwards towards its parents.

Once there, the pup's gaze shifted towards its mother. The pup hadn't noticed her until it had reached its father's side, but now that he was here, the pup looked at her with newfound curiosity: it looked startled, kind of like a baby tasting a slice of lemon -- as if it thought that someone had just put his mother there when he wasn't looking, now that he noticed her.
