Hazuki adjusted the bag of fruit in his hand, glancing at the shop signs ahead when a familiar, gentle tug on his sleeve made him stop.
"Hazuki…" Ellyn's voice was soft, almost playful, as she looked up at him with her bright eyes.
He turned toward her, the faint light catching in her hair. "Hmm? Yes, Ellyn?"
"Buy me a dress~" she said with a small, expectant smile.
Hazuki smirked. "Okay, sure. Since you don't have any spare clothes… Let's stop by the shop you want to check before they close. It's already evening."
"Mm~" Ellyn's smile widened before she stepped closer, placing a small hand on his shoulder and beginning to climb. Hazuki bent slightly to make it easier for her, the motion so practiced it felt natural between them. Once settled, her legs dangling, er tail sway lazily.
He glanced up at her. "Ellyn?"
"Yes?"
