REN
Fragile morning sun sent its thin, golden fingertips dancing across a fresh
blanket of snow. The view was spectacular; even the barest hint of light
turned the ice into diamonds, transformed each blade of grass into a
menacing shard of emerald. It was the kind of view to be taken in with a
long inhale and sweeping gaze.
Maybe another day.
Ren Gylden’s boot made a satisfying crunch as it smashed through the
hard, lacy surface of last night’s snowfall. Her sharp whistle cut through the
still air, drawing her animals right up against the fence.
With a full bucket in each hand, she whistled again and pressed her back
against the gate, pushing up on her toes to unlatch the lever with her butt.
She was met with a chorus of snorts and clucks as she opened the gate and
entered the enclosure.
“Today’s the big day.” Unable to meet their eyes, she kicked the gate
closed, crossed the barnyard, and set her buckets down. She dumped one
slop bucket into the trough, saying, “I know you’re all happy for me, but
maybe you’re worried, too.”
Her favorite pig, Frank, nudged her leg with his muddy nose, and she
stepped out of his way, letting him have a go at breakfast.
“Yes, this is a big change,” she continued, “but don’t worry. I’ve told
Steve everything he needs to do to take over the morning chores during the
week.”
Dumping the rest of the slop at the low end of the trough where the
smaller piglets could reach it, she said to them, “It’ll be the first time in
your lives that someone else is feeding you. I wonder if any of you will
notice.”
Sitting down on one overturned bucket and leaning back against the
chicken coop, she patted her lap for the tomcat, Pascal. As if his legs were
spring-loaded, he hopped up, landing gracefully. “What do you think of all
this, huh?” she asked, scratching him between his ears. “Are you going to
miss me? I wish I could be in two places at once. Here and there. I’d love to
hide behind the oak tree and watch how you all react tomorrow morning.”
Pascal flexed his right paw, pressing his claws into the thigh of Ren’s
thick denim overalls.
“You don’t think it’ll be any different? Yeah, me either.” She exhaled,
long and slow, her breath condensing into a white puff. “Not for you, at
least.”
