His faint smile actually grew a little. It wasn’t a wide smile, but it was a little bigger than the faint one he’d been sporting. This was a huge thing for him, especially since he’d been living for months in such a depressed state that just the mere thought of smiling wasn’t something that even remotely crossed his mind. Maybe leaving home and ending up here really was going to be a good thing after all, especially if it was going to have the effect on him that it was having right now. Maybe, just maybe, Yildun would be able to reach a point where his depression would begin to disappear and he would be able to maybe move on with his life instead of being in a constant state of mourning. He had cried once since his father died, but only once.
“That’s where touch comes in,” he began to answer. Lifting himself to his paws, he hopped off the boulder that he’d been lying on. Reaching out with a front paw, he felt around until he was able to find a decent size rock. “I want to show you,” he said, turning his head in her direction. “I want to show you how someone once explained the stars to me. You will have to trust me, though.” His tail swayed lightly behind him and the small smile remained on his face. “Come over here and close your eyes.” He fell silent then, waiting to feel her beside him by the small rock that he still had a paw touching.
