Preparing for Goodbye
The next few days were filled with quiet moments between Lily and the foxes. She spent every spare minute with them, knowing their time together was limited. They had become a part of her life, and saying goodbye seemed impossible.

Snowflake, Frost, Blizzard, and Flurry peered out at her with wide eyes. “Be brave,” she whispered, trying to hold back tears. She kissed her hand and pressed it to each of their noses, a silent promise of love.
