He was drunk again she noticed as he stumbled into the cave they called home. Miyako sneezed at the bipedal canine. She did not like him much and Maji was at a loss of what to do about it. She decided to not think about it, besides as long as she was tethered near her own bed she usually did not bother Sebak too much. He looked up at her with dazed eyes and almost fell as his feet got tangled up in themselves. Maji jumped up when she saw this and rushed to his side.
“Sebak…” was all she could manage to say. She hated how he had been doing this to himself for quite some time now. Yes, he always managed to still care for both of them and she could not complain about that aspect of his bad habit, but it seemed that this night was one of the worst yet. He had forgotten the goods he had stolen earlier that morning where he had hid them and only just barely remembered the way home. He looked at Maji again and blinked. She was only a blue blur with a familiar voice…but he was too far-gone to remember whose voice it was. The only name that managed to make its way to the surface was Nathifa. Was this her? He could not think as all of his pent up emotions surfaced and he grabbed Maji and held her close.
Maji just stood there stunned. Never in all of the time that she had known Sebak had he ever embraced her like this. It was caring and wanting all at the same time. It made her wrap her feathery arms around his body and just stand there as she helped support his weight.
“Don’t leave me…” he whispered unknowingly into her tiny ear. Maji held him closer and whispered back without thinking.
”I’m always here; I’m not going any where…” She nuzzled her head into his chest as he ran his hands over her head. He pushed her away from him and pulled her over to his sleeping area and as he sat, he yanked her down with him. Nathifa…he thought to himself as he gave into his longing desires and needs to the women he thought was right beside him. Maji on the other hand was still stunned as he pulled her over to his sleeping area and down to the bed of dried grass. She knew full well what was happening at this point. Her experiences with Ashwin had taught her that much and as his roaming hand made its way down the side of her body. She could not find the words to say no as she as well gave into her physically wants desires and needs.
He sat up and clasped his head in his hands. What had he done last night? He thought to himself as he slowly opened his eyes and wished that he had not drunk so much. He started to look around and he winced as the light from the rising sun shined into the cave. Strange…it was warmer in here than normal. He noticed through squinted eyes that he did not have his cloak on him and again he thought that the warmth was odd. It was not until he placed his hand down on a blue sleeping form of feathers that was Maji did he realize where the warmth was coming from. Slowly he turned his head and stared wide eyed at the blue and silver bird that was sleeping next to him. What did he do? Why was she there? Slowly thoughts of last night came to him. Nathifa, it was Nathifa that he was with last night was it not? No, it could not have been here…and if it was not Nathifa that was the blue blur that had come towards him then it must have been….Oh no….he thought to himself. He jumped up his head still throbbing and he clenched it again in his hands.
Maji rustled in the make shift bed when she felt Sebak move. She was use to sleeping next to some one, but when they got up out of bed, it always seemed to wake her up. She blinked her blue eyes and turned in the direction that the warmth of Sebak had been. She almost jumped when he was suddenly not there but caught herself as she noticed his feet. Her gaze followed his legs up his body and to his face. The expression he had plastered on it was one that she was not expecting. Horror and disgust and shock was plastered all over the familiar canine’s form. She was confused. Ashwin never looked at her like that in the morning, so why was Sebak. She sat up and reached out to him and he took a step back
“Just…don’t…don’t touch me…” he instructed forcefully at the bird as he continued to move away and sat on a near by bolder that they used as a make shift chair at times. She was confused even more so now. Had he not told her that he did not want her to leave him last night? Had he also taken her by the hand and laid down in his bed together with her? She wanted to go closer to him to comfort him as she had last night, but she stayed where she was. “What…what happened last night?” he finally asked her as he interrupted the chilling silence that had formed within the cave and between them. Maji just stared at him. What did he mean by what happened? How could he have not realized what happened he was right there when it had happened. “We…that is…you and I…” she stuttered not quite sure how to say what had happened. Maji’s stuttering response only confirmed what he already knew had happened and it was some thing he wished was just a ruse even though he knew better. Sebak stood up and walked out of the cave his head filled with the confirmation of his worst thoughts.
She watched him go and as she started to stand to follow him, she heard him cursing and some thing that sounded like a thump. She hurried to the entrance of the cave where she saw him a few feet away slamming his fists against the ground and his body convulsing due to what seemed to be crying. She tried to approach him to ask why he was so upset; she just did not understand how he was acting at all. He noticed a form of blue, which he knew, was Majida and lifted his head to watch her.
“Don’t come near me…,” he whispered hoarsely in an angry frustrated voice as he looked away from her. She stopped and looked hurt. She just wanted to set things right, to know what was wrong.
“Sebak, what’s wrong?” she asked as she stood where she was when he told her to not come any closer. “I just don’t understand….” She whispered more to herself than any one else. He looked up at the young female and sighed. Of course she would not understand what he was currently going through, she had been sheltered and he had never told her any thing about Nathifa…how much he cared about her, and how much he regretted leaving her. He did not respond to Maji’s comment as he swiftly went into the cave and fetched his cloak and a belt with a money pouch attached to it. He could not stay here…not now that things had changed. He left quickly without a word and just left Maji standing in the entranceway as she slowly dropped to her knees and wondered why.
