Breakable

Slayride Foxprint loved to hunt deer, elk, moose, wolves, and duck. She gave birth to a son and named him Hunter. She took Hunter into the woods as soon as he was old enough to walk. Whenever she shot an animal, Hunter cried for days. After a few episodes of this behavior Slayride decided to leave Hunter at home when she went stalking her game. When Hunter was old enough to articulate his feelings, he told Slayride that he could read the thoughts of animals. As they died he felt their deaths. Slayride’s heart did not mend for many years.

Ow.

Beautifully written, Mario.
 
I wonder if he changed his name.
