Totoka River Mama, I need you

Tapat didn't expect an answer from the river, but he was still disappointed when he didn't get a reply. The young man let out a sigh. He was about to walk another way when he heard someone approach. He instantly whined in excitement. "Mama!!,' he let before realizing that he called her mama. Only because she also had called him her boy. As Hemlock was more prominent in his life as a mother figure. He nuzzled her right back.

"You are here! Where are the babies? Is something wrong?," he asked worriedly. He would remember his siblings of course. Tapat hadn't gotten far with his journey. He realized how close he was to his previous home. It felt like he failed. He frowned lightly and nuzzled more against Hemlock because he had missed her.
