private
The window was propped open by an old book, it cover thick but ragged at the corners. The thick volume was something Anu had once wished to read, but the woman still could not find the motivation to learn how to read the printed pages. She could hear the voice of her father in her ears, telling her all the secrets to the plants that lived between the covers of the large encyclopedia. There was nothing that it could tell her that she did not already know, so instead of flipping through the pages Anu had wedged it in the window. Allowing the spring breeze to lap at the thin curtains, bringing the scent of tree pollen and fresh rain into the small and tidy room.
It tickled her nose, twitching her dark nostrils and waking her with an itch. It wasn’t morning, but late afternoon. The blankets of her bed were smoothed and tucked at the corners, not used much since the weather changed and the bed was slept in little. It was an empty place, without her once lover to fill the space. Her scent lingered only in the cracks of the floorboards, and deep in the kitted fabrics. A heavy sigh escaped her chest when she woke to the quiet. Why she felt the needed to sleep in the middle of the day could only be attributed to her age, for her activity hadn’t been increased and the weather was nothing but warming and fairly pleasant.
Still the Dreamer had to push herself to jump from the bed, the empty reminder the only true reason for her to leave the confines of her private space. Blue eyes blinked away sleep, and small paws tapped across the wooden floors and down the steps. Through the front door, and stepping onto the pour Anu blinked against the afternoon Sun. Clear fresh air filled her lungs, and though the day called to her Anu took two steps before lying once more on her stomach. The Lt. General rested her head on her paws, eyes and nose pointing out towards the world beyond her sanctuary. Yet, the wolfess found no energy to leave the comfort.
