Hushed Willows you're gonna be a long time

she’d eaten something that morning from a frozen cache and a few hours later, she’s throwing it up with a broken sob interrupting her heaving. her belly sucks in around her abdomen and her ribs are far more apparent than they had been before. throwing up the meal doesn’t even make her feel better and she bites back another cry, sniffling a little and lifting her head.
 
much like her brother, her time is spent by herself. she’s noticed papa’s reclusiveness but it’s only because he’s mad at them, or disappointed, or something. they’re not good enough together, especially without solomon, or their mom, or this stupid pack. she sighs and sinks down, taking long and staggering breaths.
 
when she notices delight in the distance, she blinks back her wet gaze and sniffles away as much sadness as she can before he gets close enough to see her.
