Blackfeather Woods Remember me?

Desna stood before her father and brother but slowly became more and more confused. The girl listen to her father's words. He talked about that he was sorry, and that she loved her family members. But never did he speak about him loving her or missing her. Frankly she had expected him to be more upset about it. Steady was only a friend and he was all choked up about it. Her father didn't even seem phased. He really must have hated her. Desna's face frowned in her confusion looking mostly towards the ground. This might be confused with sadness, but she had peace with her mother's death. She half missed her father's question, an not really in the mood to tell him how she was feeling. How would he know?

Then Xan made her look up by the words he said. She felt a bit of hope at first but then it took a few moments to break down that bit of hope again. Desna instantly looked hurt as Xan spoke like that. "You thinking that I would lie about such a thing is insulting," she instantly hissed, hurt by his words. "I would never lie. Mother taught us better than that. If I would do that I would be no better than---" She stopped fishing that sentence. She didn't want to be like Nanook, pushing others away because they hurt her. Desna looked up at both. "I'm fine," she spoke generally to the both of them. She had been alone without her family for a long time. Even though Xan might have some care for his mother's death seeing how shocked he was, Desna felt stupid for even traveling all this way to give this information. Clearly her father couldn't care less and Xan was thinking that she would lie to make him feel hurt. Like she was that horrible. She looked upset and hurt at the same time. "I'm going to go home," she then spoke, not really feeling like staying.
