Watching Mahler and her mother converse, Malila felt a pull at her heart. Such a sight reminded her of the times when Speedy and her father were still together. How things were when they were happy. How she wished they still were. But those days were long gone and all she could do now was try to move forward in her new life.

As the minutes ticked by, Malila slowly gathered up the courage to come out of hiding. Picking up the bundle of sweet grass she had deposited, she crept closer. Her steps were soft and gentle, her mismatched eyes shy. But they were full of interest, ears pricked. She had caught snippets of their conversation as she silently neared her mothers side. Mahler spoke of herbs and a place he had found to store them. Speedy expressed her interest in seeing it, not forgetting to mention Malila's affinity for plants and medicine. Now present, the young female eagerly looked at Mahler, a silent plea in the soft wave of her tail.
