Sun Mote Copse It's your heart that you betray

Someone was coming.  At first, Fennec assumed that it was one of her family following to push a conversation.  At first she felt dread... and then a little longing.  She didn't want to be here, alone.  She wanted them to follow, wanted to get the hug she'd run away from.  She just hadn't known it until right this moment.

So when Penn spoke up, she was disappointed.  She paused in what she was doing, then took a breath.

Fine.  she said, softly.  Then a little louder, My brother's back.  And my dad.  Probably weird that she was here, right, and not with them?  Yeah, right.
