He nearly growled again. "That's not... that's not quite it." He looked away, raking a paw through his headfur in frustration. "You know how many cats know about this? Those that lived it, Cor, the school nurse, and the damn doctor that was there the one time I bothered draggin' any of us ta the hospital. And you want me ta talk about it?"

Griddlebone sighed softly again, pulling her temper into check. "Mac...I..."

She hesitated, placing a paw on his cheek again. "What are you going to do?"

"I don't know," he said finally, softly. "I don't know. She left us but I..." he shook his head slightly. "I... I will go and see her. Sometime."

"Do you want me to go with you?" She murmured.
