With that, Sakura turned and left.
"Sakura!"
As Sakura turned away, Alicia tried to stop her. However, the pink fox ears atop Sakura's head twitched, and she ultimately continued forward without heeding Alicia's "cry for help."
"Mm~"
Finally releasing the two soft patches on Gwen's cheeks, Alicia gently rubbed his face with her slender fingers, as though afraid she had pinched him too hard.
