Today was a good day, Ukungcola decided. She had gone out in an attempt to hunt and despite not dragging anything edible back she was in a delightful mood. She had seen a couple flowers growing in the shadow of a rock and was encouraged that perhaps the weather would become more merciful towards the pride. A little less heat perhaps? At this point she just really just wanted a good rainfall. Though with today containing no clouds in the sky it seemed that Ukungcola wouldn’t be getting what she wanted. Hmm, well, no matter. Today was still a good day! There was no real reason for it to be considered such, but Ukungcola was optimistic. Or maybe just hysterical. It was after all entirely possible that having not drunk a lick of water for two days was starting to get to her head.
Regardless the brown lioness sat grooming herself in a her happy mood, ensuring to lick all the dust off of her claws. She had no further plans for the day. Maybe she’d visit her sister Ilanga and her cubs? They were getting big now weren’t they? In fact, if Cola remembered correctly they were almost all grown up! Ah, how time flew. She could remember fondly when they were just born. Seemed almost yesterday Cola was happily snuggling her sister in congratulations over that litter...
