Redtail Rise Family Reunion

Alyssum turned back to face her mother. Her heart ached, the last few tears pooling but refusing to fall. She began in a whisper, Before, when I thought you were...you were dead, that was easier than this. And you know, maybe this just isn't something I'm meant to understand. Maybe things were better before I found you. She took a deep breath and stood, before continuing, Right now, this is too much. This anger, this confusion...these emotions are too much. I want to come back in the future, have a proper conversation, but this is a lot. And with that she was off, back to her pack.
