huzzah! the cheery thread can finally happen! XD Yeah sure, whatever works for you Smile 300+

The girl's healing was more or less complete. There were still a few tufts of fur that had yet to grow back on her torso, but the pain was gone and the scrapes had scabbed over and turned back to normal flesh. Still though, Cambria hadn't been moving around all that much, content to stay within the shadow of the mansion if not inside it itself. She worked to study her book of healing herbs and tend to Enzo. Her thoughts also frequently drifted to Mati, and that amazing day and night they had spent together. The mere thought of it served to take her breath away. She understood now the true power of two people coming together in such a way. She now understood that she loved the Church fey, and she didn't think it would ever be possible for her heart to love another. Mati had become her world, and Cambria never wished to be far from her side.


When she wasn't focused on her studies or thinking of her lover though, her mind turned to her aunt and how guilty she felt. She knew it wasn't her fault, what had happened to Ghita, but still, if she hadn't been trapped in the barn then Ghita wouldn't have gotten hurt. Her aunt had been more severely injured than she had been. Cambi hadn't been even able to help her herself. She was glad that Dawali had come and taken care of her, but the guilt still resided heavily in her chest. Along with those two things, she had yet to go and visit the woman, and it made her feel like a coward and a wretch. She should have been there for her as soon as she had been able to, but she had stayed away. What kept her away, she didn't really know, but part of it was she was afraid to see what the failed rescue attempt had done to her aunt. Cambria didn't know if she could stand seeing the extent of the damage her family member had endured on her behalf.


It was these thoughts that ran through her mind as she sat on the bed of her room, fingers fidgeting in her lap. She needed to be brave, to suck it up and go see her, and hope that Ghita would be able to forgive her for her neglect and cowardice. The woman would have every right to be disappointed or angry with her, and if that were the case, Cambria needed to have the guts to face it. The knocks on her door startled her somewhat, but quickly she got up and opened the door to find the very person she had been thinking about. "Ghita," she breathed, looking her aunt over. Already she could feel tears well up behind her eyes. She hoped that she could forgive her.
