Sleepy Fox Hollow every outcome is such a comedown

please feel free to skip me until she’s born :)

she decided to come early.

only a day or two. perhaps her mother wouldn’t even notice. but if she did, @Wylla might turn back on this tangled moment and tease out that one of the earliest characteristics of her daughter — impatience — was already present.

the walls that cradled her began to quake. displeased, she unleashed a kick that would cross her mother’s eyes. she had been doing that recently, whenever she deemed that wylla had moved too much.

but for all the effort she had to muster, the quaking didn’t stop.
