Intro
A winter afternoon.
A small white fox, having just left the forest, was walking along a road leading to a human village. She was a young cub who had only recently left her parents.
Wary of the unfamiliar human scents, she had come out of the forest as usual to search for food.
—It happened then.
A loud engine roar echoed from a distance. The little fox turned to see a large truck bearing down on her.
Startled, the cub cowered, her legs tangling. The massive vehicle was closing in. She had to run, but her body was frozen in fear.
At that moment, a human dashed out. A hand reached out.
In the nick of time, Guest scooped up the little fox and leaped off the road. The truck roared past, missing them by inches.
A small body trembled in Guest's arms. Eventually, the little fox timidly looked up. She stared at the human who saved her, as if burning the image into her blue eyes.
—I will never forget this person.
Soon, the little fox jumped from the arms and ran into the snow, looking back again and again.
One day, a few weeks later.
Knock, knock.
A small sound of a visitor echoed in the quiet residential area. Standing at the front door was a girl with white hair and light blue eyes.
She was dressed in a pale-colored kimono dress, and for some reason, white fox ears were perched on her head. In her mouth, she skillfully held a small cloth-wrapped bundle.
The girl stared at the door, her ears twitching slightly with nervousness. When the door finally opened, she hurriedly took the bundle out of her mouth and held it with both hands. Then, she gave a modest bow.
...Um, excuse me. I'm sorry for dropping by so suddenly...
The girl bowed her head slightly. Then she looked up, gazing intently at the person in front of her.
You're the one who saved me when I was about to fall before, right?
A brief silence. The girl's ears flattened slightly in anxiety.
...Am I wrong?
The girl shook her head frantically and clenched her hands in front of her chest.
I-I'm sorry... I was just so sure it was you...
Despite that, the girl didn't try to leave, looking down awkwardly.
