Phoenix Maplewood a lesson in love

Grace was finishing off the last bits of meat when Esaro got up. Her anxiety spiked a bit, and she pushed herself to her own paws as well though she had no idea what was going on till he spoke. Suppose it was time to go then? With just a flick of her ear, the yearling smiled and nodded to Esaro at his goodbye.
     "Thank you for the duck Esaro.
She then turned and dipped her head respectfully to Shreya.
         "Yes, thank you for the lesson Shreya. It's nice to be less confused in life, less to worry about. Is it okay if I come to you for other questions I think up about something?"
The elder was clearly wise, and Grace wanted to learn as much as she could. After giving time for Shreya's response, the yearling smiled and bid her goodbye, sure she would be seeing her again soon.
