It was getting rather late in the day. The wind was picking up as the sun was disappearing and the temperature was dropping dramatically for when night fell. The temperature was cooling the young girl's body, refusing to leave the mouth of the cave for the time being so she could keep an eye out for what was to come. She imagined her father and the rest of her family to come and sweep her up and take her home but as the day was finishing, the hope of that was diminishing and her depression was setting in rather easily. As the wind blew across her light colored face, she sighed and looked through the trees as the ray of light shot from the ground, the sky a beautiful red, purple, and orange that normally she would find a sight she would never trade.
Emma did not want the day to end when she could still be looking or that possible Beppe was looking for her. There was too much to do and so little time to actually do it. She picked her head to look in the den for her sister that lay in the background and she noticed Hemming had left her a piece of jerky nearby without her even noticing. Her nose was well skilled at such a young age but her mind had been elsewhere. Her weight shuffled slightly so she could dip her head and scoop the piece up with her mouth. It was a rather large one and she silently wondered how much Zaramama had left the girls and felt suspicious that Hemming was stealing some for himself and giving it to the rest of the pack. One day she determined she would figure out how to make such a treat for herself and not share it with anyone.
A bit of contentment settled inside her and her worry subsided for the time being as she let her puppy teeth chew against the tough meet. It tasted different than milk and other chewed up meat she had before. It was harder to chew, like a bone, but still more tender than that. Emma pulled her head back to slice a piece of the dried deer meat, pulling loose strings that looked like thread and awkwardly chewed the piece in the side of her mouth in peace.
