it is clear that the youngster is unsure about how to cope with the situation. she is not alone in that. other than occasional bouts of babysitting the mladíků, youngsters, in her rodina she was completely inexperienced being responsible full time for a child. and it was even worse that wasp was hardly a child now. no, she was a young mare, full of strong will. it would be a great challenge for both of them. her dark eyes watch the filly intently, waiting to see how her words would be received. it seems they were transmitted well enough as wasp finally nods in acceptance. Božena would have to learn to use the filly’s emotion and her will to aid them both.

when the question falls from wasp’s lips she thinks of how tired they both are, of the long night they had spent. for a moment she considered rest. it would be good for both of them. but a klidný day, a restful day, wasn’t part of her plan at all, and the towering mare wasn’t about to lose determination. her voice leaves no room for quarrel or question but it is not without a hint of compassion either.
