Like a flower waiting to bloom.
A pair of hazelbrown eyes are watching the grullo, lavender and white girl on the beach. Ischia was beautiful, and their little paradise looked stunning in the moonlight. Sleep hadn’t come to her and that her little sister was missing had been the perfect excuse for Kylin to leave the den their family slept.

Not that she had to worry about Kali’s wellbeing. Ischia was theirs, their paradise for family and friends. Father would make sure nothing would happen to them here. And on top of that, her baby sister wasn’t so little anymore. Kali rivalled her own height now and she too started to fill out in all the right places. They probably could pass through for twins, well, unless Kharon came around. But, with Kharon more and more away, her side felt cold, empty. It made her restless and Kylin didn’t like it. Even now she could feel the ache in her chest.

”Kali” she spoke softly, voice barely more than a whisper. Not because she was afraid of startling her younger sibling, but because she was afraid to break the peaceful silence under the moonlight. Kylin was pretty sure that her sister would’ve noticed her coming, if not by scent, then by sound. She stopped beside Kali, nose dipping to nuzzle her wither’s for a short moment. ”Can’t sleep?” she asks, voice still soft.

It would be nice to get distraction from the thoughts that kept her awake. On top of that her baby sister’s wellbeing was important to her. Perhaps she wasn’t as close to Kali as Kharon was, Kylin knew her twin adored their little sister, but that didn’t mean they were strangers to one another. They were family.
