Humming the perfect lullaby
#1
Noon. The sun was making Catherine sweat with the heat. She was walking in two-legs through the tribe's territory, hoping to meet other wolves from AniWaya tribe or a Loner. Inspite the horrible heat, she was happy about belonging to a pack. It felt nice.
But she was wandering that way just for fun: she wanted to know the territory before she would start doing something useful. Looking up to a tall, big pine tree, she found her perfect spot: somewhere to see everything at once.
Sinking her claws in the rough wood, she puled herself up, reaching the first branch. She pulled up again and again, branch by branch, like a monkey, until she found one that was thick and strong enough for her to sit in it. As she sat, she pulled a few leafs and put then together with a string, making a shelter from the sun. She rested her back on the tree's trunk, and stared at the ground, wishing she would not fall asleep in here. It would be dangerous if she falls from such height.
She grabbed her legs to her chest, curling herself into a ball. "Who would be the first one I will see?" - she thought. She started humming her mother's lulaby, the one she used to sing to make Catherine sleeps. "I'm so idiot" - she murmured to herself, but kept humming the calming music. She was sure someone would hear her, but she didn't care.
