*Without a word he crests his neck, his head lowered, and his silky bronze forelock trailing over his dark eyes. He takes huge breaths until he can regain his composure.* Day, *he says in a cracked voice.* I'm sorry. What I did--or intended to do, anyway--was stupid and selfish. I never thought for a minute about you . . . *He looks around his beautiful, peaceful home, with the bees buzzing and trees waving.* . . . or this, *he adds softly, tears glistening in his wise mahogany eyes. A warm wind makes his mane and tail ripple behind him like bronze rivers.* But I'm just so heart-broken after Prancie leaving me. *He swallows hard.* I never thought I'd see the day when she was unfaithful. Even now, I still can't quite comprehend that she's not here anymore . . . *He looks around again, his haunted eyes staring off into the lonely distance. His voice grows softer.* That I'll never hear her laugh, or feel her nuzzle me . . . *He sobs, then gathers himself together and cautiously touches Day's neck with his nose, whispering softly,* Thank you.
