Exploration - Vadar

  A soft smile seemed to only grow as she watched the stallion and her son. Thorgal’s excitement and willingness to greet a stranger warmed her heart, for she knew that meant he wasn’t too shy to speak up and make friends like she had once been. And the stallion, complimenting on Thorgal’s name -surely an attempt to make the colt feel proud- and then his playful movements only made her giggle lightly, though she did her best to hide it. Only for a heartbeat did she catch him looking her way the way he had, and she simply replied with a gently nod of her head. 

He then introduced himself, and continued speaking with her son in an amusing manner. It made her think that’s how a father would act around his son, but she wouldn’t know, and neither would Thorgal. Leilan was never around; he just walked out of their lives, so she wouldn’t have been able to see a father in action. And her own father wasn’t even worth consideration. He never cared for any of his children, never paid attention to them, yet expected too much in return. 

It was how well he was doing with Thorgal that made her feel so comfortable around Vadar. But as the stallion indirectly complimented her, she, in all honesty, felt nothing. Perhaps when she was younger without the maturity motherhood causes, she would have blushed, stuttered, and felt weak in the knees just at the comment. But now, after all that’s happened, she had decided to give up on ever finding love. She was certain that no stallion would truly feel that way about her, believing that she’s beautiful. Those feelings became so strong that every time someone complimented her, she just brushed it off and decided they were just trying to be nice. 

So there was no reaction from her, no falter in her smile, no hope in her eyes nor heart. She only remained quiet for now, too caught up in watching Vadar and Thorgal interact. 

even if you feel all alone, it can’t rain everyday, it don’t rain forever
