we were born sick
Zhenya didn't miss the company of females. Not the least bit. She had never enjoyed the company of other women. They were petty and stuck-up and dramatic. They were needy and would do anything for a little bit of attention. They were fickle creatures, made jealous at the smallest, stupidest things. If she was completely honest, Zhenya enjoyed the lack of female interaction in the Lagoon. She knew there were others besides her, but she had managed to avoid them this long and she didn't plan on bumping into anyone.

That is, until she actually did bump into someone. Almost quite literally. She was walking along the sandbar, her head down and her limbs feeling heavy. She was in search of a comfortable place to rest. She was barely even looking where she was going. Which, of course, led to her bumping into another horse. When she snapped her head up, she was greeted by the sight of a red roan colt. Almost a yearling, she assumes, going by his size. An angry snort comes from her lips and she opens her mouth to scold him, but spots another mare not too far off, leaning against a tree. Zhenya quickly shuts her mouth and keeps quiet. If she is correct in her assumption that the bay mare is this colt's mother, she doesn't want to make a bad first impression.

Turning her eyes back to the colt, she offers him a half-smile. "Sorry for bumping into you, kid." She says, and makes her way towards the mare, offering her the same smile as she did her son. "Hello," She says softly, bowing her head a little. "I'm sorry I bumped into your son. I didn't mean to. It's been a stressful few days." she chuckles lightheartedly, hoping the other woman understands where she's coming from. She wasn't in the mood to be bitched at. She just wanted her to accept the apology so she could be on her way.
