Kaliska smiled. "He was adorable." "Yes, thank you!" Barrett chimed in. "Well good! Cause Lana is making lunch." Jasmine smiled.
Braxton chuckled. He brushed the water drops off his arms and swished his tail. "Seems warm enough that I might be dry by the time we get there." He turned up his nose and strolled past Ferris, holding his shirt. Max frowned. "So what you're saying is, he probably won't come back here for her?" He asked. Emily's brown eyes were large.
"He still is an overgrown sweet heart. He did have his moments though." She laughed.

"You are welcome." The replied then waled off with their arms locked and stargazing at each other.
"That was cool." Myrna sighed.

"Yea but the tail biter still takes a bottle." He laughed at the one that ad Red's little tail all drooled over.
"Good grief you have airs today." He sighed then traced behind.

"I am saying I don't know. She was not his mate. He might forget about her over time." Thrain shrugged.

Kaliska chuckled. She picked up a tiny outfit and ran it lovingly through her fingers. Barrett smiled. "That was nice of them." He said then turned sharply to her. "Hey! We forgot about our pastries!" He laughed. Jasmine giggled softly. "Seems like he could use a bottle now!"
Braxton raised a brow at Ferris. "You okay?" He asked. Max snorted. "He better not come if be knows what's good for him!" He growled. "Thrain," Emily's gentle, but worried voice started. "How can we help her now? She's obviously not doing well emotionally...."
"Just think in 6 months you will have that baby on your arms and feel a love like no other." She kissed her cheek. "And it is okay.... you are who you are... and I love you just the same." She assured her about what she knew.

"No
you forgot." She darted off inside giggling.

"Yeah..." He laughed. "Want me to get it?" He got up.
"As fine as one can be with so much stinking drama." He scratched his head.

"she just needs love and not to go into some kind of shell. I would let her rest a bit, but I think that job would be good. Push her out and make her realize she is needed, and that others understand. Only she needs time alone in between. At east she has you two. The other thing we find is once a mare marries she feels protected by her stallion, in a different sense. She might not ever feel completely better until she has a healthy ans safe relationship." He sighed. "Our agents ad Challanger's have to undergo special training or they would get attached to every mare that they save. And he mare to them. Something about our possessive nature kicks in. The Rukes have it in abundance. But the mares we rescue do not have that training something inside feels rejected when saved and the stallion passes her off. Its not a matter of the hear but of some deep genetic thing we can't figure out. She is afraid, unsure, and self worth is low. They really make a mare or filly feel like they have no value and it sticks in their heads. You will have to build her up. She will feel worth helping that poor overworked mare and the foals at the foster home if you will agree to it. Emily I think you should come as well."

Kaliska's yellow eyes softened, and she nodded. "Thank you.. I'm really grateful for that Melanie.."

Barrett laughed, dashing after her.

"That would be awesome. Thanks!" Jasmine said, and reached for the foal to take him away from Red's tail.
Braxton slowed down until he was next to Ferris and cleared his throat. He put his hand on the back of his head--like he always did when he was uncomfortable--and ran his fingers through his hair. "You uh...." he paused..... then started again. "You want to talk about it?" he asked.

(Wow. Thrain had a lot to say.

Emily nodded. "I had wanted to volunteer at the foster home.. but then... well, you know. But now that she's home again, I think it will be good for the both of us." She looked at Max. "Is that alright with you, hon?" she asked. Max shrugged. "If Thrain thinks its safe, and Jesslyn wants to.. I guess so." he nodded.
