So today was the day he did not really think would ever actually happen. He had been eager, so eager, to get his own horse, ever since that first ride with Lexington. But he thought it was farfetched. Few had horses with the Dreamers, and there were no broodmares for the proud stallion his father kept. Trading would have to be big and impressive to pull off a foal or even a trainable horse. Hell, a trained horse would have probably cost the Sadira male his first born daughter. Honestly, a horse would be wonderful but to pay a child? No, thanks. He was alright if the AniWayans would raise the - this was getting far too distant in the future for him to really be thinking about this. He would not trade an unborn variable for a horse.
But instead of taking his father's large horse, they had opted to walk. More like Kansas has opted to leave the horse at home. Not that the youth minded. He cared for his father and felt like he had seen so much of his mother lately and not enough of his father, from whom he took his last name. He wondered who had suggested that he ought to take Sadira rather than Marino. By now, it just sounded so much better to his ear. The walk had been long, but not terribly so. After they had exhausted some light topics, they grew quiet, but the Sadira was content to just let the summer sounds take over their voices.
By the time they had gotten to the border, Silvano had felt the fluttering in his stomach of excitement and anxiety. His father had told him this was not something he could be helped with. His father was just there to be support. Swallowing slightly at his father's nudging, the youth took a few steps past him and raised his head and howled for the one person he knew could help them. Liliana.
