"Well you're just so nice. I'm sure you would make a great leader." Tashi said confidently. But then broke her confident face to laugh with him. He could light up anywhere he was with that laugh, Tashi thought. Then another question popped into her mind. She had noticed a thing that he did often, "Why do you always look up to the sky? Do you see butterflies?" Tashi asked as she looked up and squinted her eyes trying to find the butterflies.

Sai laughed. "Now wait a minute. Isn't it supposed to be the strong who lead?" He questioned, his tone light and playful. He enjoyed the sound of her laughter mixing with his and was happy. As their laughter tapered off Tashi asked another question. Sai's smile widened and he turned his gaze skyward. "Nope, no butterflies. But I think I see a fluffy white bunny up there." He said happily, squinting his eyes up at the white clouds.

Tashi thought, "Just because someone is strong doesn't mean someone will follow him or her. Normally us followers want to follow someone who is nice, granted strong is nice too, but I think you look strong." Tashi said with a smile. Then, she looked up into the sky and tried to make shapes out of the clouds like he had. "Hmmm, it kinda does. Oooh and look at that one! It looks like a flower!!!" She said happily.

Sai glanced down at Tashi, but only gave her a closed eyed smile. She was a bright little girl with a good head on her shoulders, who was he to say otherwise. After all she had made a good point, in spite of his last comment being more of a playful joke than a statement of fact. He returned his hazel eyes to the sky, watching the white clouds, content. "Yes, I see it. A beautiful white flower." He said brightly, laughing lightly in sheer happiness.

Tashi sighed as she leaned over and laid on her side. Tashi liked flowers, because flowers meant butterflies. She had once found a big field of flowers and there was so many butterflies.She laid her head down in the soft grass, again taking comfort in the silence. Not knowing what to say, the silence lingered.

Sai shifted and lay down, on his side, in the sweet, green grass. He smiled, looking over at Tashi as she absorbed the peace of the silence. It was a rare few as young as her that could appreciate nature and the calm that it could bring, if one lets it. His smile grew softer and he turned his gaze back to the sky as the peaceful silence lingered. It was a long moment before Sai spoke. "Look Tashi, butterflies!" He said with a bright excitement, indicating a pair of butterflies dancing though the air.

Tashi's ears perked up and she scrambled to her feet. Legs spred awkwardly, her head swung around trying to find the butterflies. "Butterflies? Where?" She asked excitedly. Once she spotted them, she watched them more attentively. Her whole body was tense, the muscles ready to run. But instead, she did something that surprised even herself: she laid down and watched the butterflies frolic.

Sai chuckled lightly at Tashi's quick, excited movements as she tried to find the butterflies. The energy that kids had. He watched her with a gentle smile as she spotted the pair of dancing butterflies and tensed to run. Then she did the opposite. She lay back down in the grass and intently watched the butterflies. Sai let out a chuckle. "Nature is pretty potent." He said lightly letting his hazel eyes follow the beautifully colored butterflies.

"I love butterflies..." Tashi said dreamily as she lay in the soft grass. "It's nice to just sit and look around sometimes isn't it Sai?" She asked him. She often found herself just laying down enjoying nature without doing anything at all.

Sai smiled and turned his head to look at Tashi as she gazed up at the butterflies. His smile grew softer, warmer still as if he was gazing happily upon his own child. "Yes, it is very nice to sit back and take in all around you, enjoying the peace it has to offer." He said methodically turning his hazel eyes towards the butterfiles as a couple more joined the first pair in their frolicking. He took in a deep calming breath and closed his eyes. This moment was so warm and nice that he wished he could share it with everyone.

Tashi watched the butterflies, seemingly dancing, through the air. She wondered like most children do about what it would be like if she could fly. Laying her head down in the soft grass she started to day dream.
