OC-tober day 17: Embrace
@oc-growth-and-development
Alina leaned expectantly in the direction of the forest, just inches away where her momma could see her. Her wings trembling behind her as she kept her eyes peeled.
Some laughter from behind her startled the deer like creature, and she toppled forward, landing with her limbs all tangled up.
Some sturdy hands helped picked her up, and when she was steady on her legs, she turned right around and dived at her friend.
With an 'oof', he toppled over, wrapping his arms around Alina and giving her a big hug.
"Have you gotten bigger?" He asked her, batting away her wings from his face. "You have! Haven't you!"
Alina stretched her neck in order to catch some of his hair from underneath his hat.
"Hey!" He swatted her away, and she bounced up, turning around in a playful movement. "You're not allowed to eat my hair!"
She let out a playful bray, and then started running from her friend, starting a game of chaise that lasted for a while. How long? How would she know? She's just a pastin.
