Another possible solution for the stubborn Soucis popped into the golden woman's mind. "You say he won't leave given the choice. Maybe Soucis needs to come to the realization that if he doesn't cooperate he wont be given the choice to stay?" Though it was almost a last resort solution, in case the horse did decide at that point that leaving would be easier to tolerate. "Earn his keep, so to speak." Anann hadn't dealt with the horse herself, so was doing little more than spouting out at the mouth hoping that maybe something she said would be of aid.
Anann wasn't the antisocial type, but she kept to herself for the most part. She had made a few friends so far. Heath was by far the closest friend she had. Their relationship much like what she had once shared with her own brothers. He and Rem were the only family she really had now. Though her sisters still lived she did not know them and her father, while he been some what present in her life was just as much a stranger. "If you and Ruri need anything, all you have to do is ask." Anann would give the couple any help she could. Her smile growing broad as she imagined the young, growing pups around the stables in the months to come. "Growing up around the horses will be good for them." Once they learned to stay out from under foot. Anann's relationship with the other species had certainly taught her a lot about life. Particularly patience and tolerance. "I'm sure you will be and you know Ruri will make a wonderful mother too. There will be plenty of love in their lives." It was easy to see the pride and joy that Heath felt, even if it was mingled with a touch of worry. The worry was just as much as sign of his love as anything.
The happy news of Heath's growing family made it easy for Anann to look past the haze that had been hanging over her lately. Often finding herself distracted by thoughts of the young Russian, wondering why he had just up and left that day and if he was ever going to face her again. She wanted to ask Heath about it to see if he could give her some insight into why things had gone as they had. She just didn't quite know how to breech the subject. "Hey uh, do you remember Anatoliy? From the day we built my cabin." Her fingers fiddled with a strand of mane. "You haven't seen him around, have you?"
