Lunar Shadows and Winds Embrace

Almost there!

OMG... I am soooo sorry for leaving you guys high and dry for over two weeks? I think? I didn't check.. 

Either way I feel so bad for letting my procrastination get the better of me!! Please forgive me.. 

I also had to make up some missing assignments, (I know barely a few months in and ALREADY missing assignments...) AND I got sick, so I guess I have an excuse for the first week, but the second is all on me.. 

I tried to make this longer to make up for the lost time! 

Enjoy!!

When I woke up it it was hard to imagine what I was witnessing.. 

"WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!?!"

*3rd Person: A distance memory..*

"Mama!" Called a little voice, a higher pitch than most, a small figure came running across the clearing. Judging  by the sounds of light pattering, the child seemed to be no older than six.

"Yes dear?" A light, almost (If it wasn't for the small rasp that always made itself present) angelic voice said sweetly, the larger figure of a women opening her arms, allowing the small figure to latch onto her front.

"I got you something!" The little silhouette said, holding out it's small hands proudly, showcasing a bundle of herbs, and is that a flower? 

"The nice lady said it helps with birth!" The little figure exclaimed in joy. The flower was a blue sort of color, a deep luxurious royal blue that shined brightly in the sunlight. There were little stems that sprouted out from the petals, but all of them seemed to curve in, making the flower even more spectacular.

"Is that so?" The lady said, pleased with her youngest, "Then I guess I should incorporate these into our meal?" The lady suggested as she carefully took the herbs and single flower and placed them gently on their counter.

"No!" The small child cried out, "I'm not pregnant! You are!" He said with a mild commanding tone, not wanting to anger his mother.

"Alright, I'll keep them all to myself tonight," The mother laughed, turning back to the meal she was preparing, beginning to crush up the herbs and flower into a paste, the blue of the flower overpowering the greenness of the herbs, 

She poured some water into the mixture, running the water dry. After the water was mixed into the paste, she poured the liquid into her bowl of rice.

"Oh my! I seems I have run out of water!" The woman gasped dramatically, placing a hand to her mouth in fake horror, "I need a very strong man to get me a bucket!"

"Oh! I will mama!" The little boy shouted with glee before slipping on his boots and grabbing the empty bucket, "I'll be right back!" He called out happily as he took off towards the well,

"Be careful Sora!" The woman called out as she smiled softly, she can't wait for her darling daughter to be born.

Morning was never my favorite, like seriously, why would anyone in their right mind wake up when even the sun was still sleeping!?

It never made sense that Sora and Yumiko would get up at the butt-crack of dawn (Maybe it's just a boy thing?), just to have to wait for me to (grudgingly) get out of bed.
