Professor Barlow is abou' ter give yeh all a task, so hurry up." He nodded at Peyton, handing back over the reigns for the lesson in the process.
The forth-year has been watching with a blank stare. When the groundskeeper said to either look away or watch, she turned away. Then turned back to the cow. She was both curious and hesitant. If Mr. Firth thought they'd be ok if they watched as he didn't say otherwise, then it was safe to look, she decided.And so her eyes were back Bonny. The cow's sound was kinda disturbing though or more like sad. Cassia winced hearing the last MOOO!
But then the baby cow was out. Despite herself the snake smiled. It was the first time she's seen an animal give birth. When her cat did Cassia wasn't there.
Paying more attention to what student were saying and Firth, Cassia's hand shot up in the air and waved, "
ME! I want to!" She said enthusiastically. Skipping over to the baby cow, Cassia waited till one of her classmates made some room then she crouched down next to the baby cow. Who wasn't going to get a name.
Deciding that she was going to wash up big time later, Cassia rolled up the sleeve of her robes and reached for the lil cow. Her fingers barely brushed the calf at first, then she gathered her courage and started rubbing more confident. In the process her eyes were moving from the mother to her newborn. She was still fascinated by what she just witnessed.
