Hmm-hmm~♪

Raika

I'm so happy I get to walk home with Mikuuu~♪

Miku

*Sigh*... Can you just walk normally?

Raika

Huh? I am! Totally normal! I'm just happy our timing happened to line up, that's all~

Miku

You called out to me so loudly at the station. It was seriously embarrassing, you know.

Raika

You say that, but I know you were happy to see me~

Raika

Anyway, did you have fun at school today? What'd you do? Get any homework?

Miku

Is knowing all that fun for you?

Raika

Not fun exactly. It makes me happy! I want to know more about you, Miku.

Miku

Oh. Okay.

Raika

...♪

Miku

You know... you're kind of—

Oh, Raika-chan! On your way home from school?

Raika

Auntieee! I'm on my way home with my family. What about you...?

Woof!

Miku

...!

Raika

I thought so. You're out for your evening walk.

That's right. They've been making a fuss since just after lunch, wanting to go out for their walk.

Woof, woof!

Raika

You're as energetic as ever today~ Who's a good dog? Who's a good dog?

Raika

Ahaha, that tickles!

They really do love you, Raika-chan~

Miku

Um... you walk them past our dorm in the mornings too, don't you?

Oh, so you've seen us! That road is part of our regular walking route.

Raika

Have you met them before too, Miku?

Miku

No. I can see them from my room, that's all.

Woof!

Miku

Eek!!

Raika

Whoa. What's wrong, Miku? Why are you hiding behind me?

Miku

I-It came up so suddenly that it startled me a little...

Sorry about that. I think they just wanted to say hello.

Miku

R-Right... I'm sorry.

It's nothing. Don't worry about it. See you around.

Miku

*Sigh*...

Raika

Oh, really~?

Miku

What?

Raika

Nothing~ I was just thinking you're not good with animals, Miku.

Miku

I-I'm not...! I'm fine with cats and rabbits...

Miku

Big dogs just come on a little too strong for me, that's all.

Raika

You were pretty cute, though~ You actually went, "Eek!"

Miku

You and that dog have a few things in common, though.

Raika

What? Does that mean I'm too much for you too...!?

Miku

Who knows? Come on, hurry up. I'm leaving you behind.

Raika

I'm not too much for you, right!? We're family, aren't we!? Hey, Mikuuu~!
