Davian Hartseer
Grief ridden, the sewn doll continued to take deep breaths in order to stop the tide from escaping. The Owner was gone. Davian’s loved creator, mentor, and father has passed from this world and into the next. The very thought was unthinkable! The Owner couldn’t have died, but yet here he was sitting in another person’s home, covered in the soot that used to be his home. Another tear found its way out of the doll’s tightly bound eyes and began to run away. It was quickly swallowed by the yarn.
“Don’t cry…” Akisa said softly while offering a handkerchief to the saddened doll. He took it, grateful that she was trying to comfort him. “A-arigato.” The doll squeaked before wiping his button eyes. Trembling, he held the cloth to his eyes and let a few more tears leave. Setting the tear splotched cloth down, he sipped some of the tea Akisa had given him. He instantly felt warm inside. The yarn doll looked up at the girl at the end of the couch and smiled faintly, hopefully showing that he was alright for the time being. He didn’t doubt that his sorrow would appear again, but at least it was locked up for a while more.
