No answer to her question; Agana knew very well it was an absolute no, but it was worth a try. And she knew, no matter how right it felt, how lovely her touch was, she needed to let go and accept the fact it was wrong. The grey female turned away in shame, as she could no longer see the duck with the same eyes anymore.
 
She could not help but think about the precious moment they shared; and she remembered how the duck immediately left her, maybe to gather things for her prayers. Agana remained alone and silent, eyeing her as she padded away, a blank expression on her face; she did not cry at the time, but would experience several sleepless nights in which she would wonder what went wrong.
 
Malena said, she did, oh she did; she said it was wrong, that it should remain forgotten that moment; and Agana did not listen. Her mind drifted away to the day they met, when the duck fell into the rapids and how she came to the rescue. They have been companions ever since, they have even been denning together, something entirely new to her.
 
Jade and golden gaze met, the grey female shifting her weight nervously at the thought of her precious, soft lips on her. Agana shook her head, and parted her lips to speak. “To tell you I do not wish to ruin our companionship because of one foolish gesture.” It broke her harder to hear those words out loud. She wanted to cry, scream and shout; instead, she remained silent and composed, golden gaze never leaving her companion.
