Bramblepoint Withering

Sadness had not stirred Dwin, but the boy's desperate anger at the world did resonate with her. Her situation was undoubtedly better than that of Ponyboy, because her parents were still alive, but she recognized the all too familiar wish to blame an outside force for the circumstances that were out of her control. Often, when she was in the most self-pitying mood. Venting usually helped and the next day life seemed less dull and she saw more clearly, where she herself could improve.

Dwin wondered, if there was any way she could help the boy or should she simple leave him be, staying near nonetheless. Bronco was gone and the least she could do was to make sure that no rogue big cat harmed his son.
