Fennec had fully intended to tell Towhee about Tierra and Minne's encounter, but the news about her dad took all of that completely from her mind. She was too busy thinking about what could have possibly happened to him on such a short trip - and trying not to imagine at the same time.

Instead of saying anything else, Fennec stepped forward and embraced her mom, giving her a tight hug before she left. She had even more reason to be grateful for Towhee - despite moves and changes, she was one constant that Fennec could always depend on to be there.
