Bai Bai's appearance brought her a great deal of comfort.
Besides, Bai Bai was so capable...
It had saved her several times.
It had even used a banana leaf to shield her from the rain.
It was just like something out of a fairy tale.
She had seen a similar scene before.
But the main characters in that scene had been a mole and a little rabbit.
In reality, though, she was neither a mole nor a little rabbit.
The one shielding her from the rain was a beautiful little white fox.
"Wawa!"
That had been an interest his wife had given up after they lost their child.
"Mm."
When the man saw the woman, he waited for her to speak, then grabbed her.
That was terrible news.
The umbrella in his hand swayed in the wind and rain.
"Did you find Wawa?"
"Wawa!"
The little girl was so frightened that her whole body trembled.
"Wawa!"
Our child is perfectly ordinary.
The Great White Fox ran quickly.
Her raised eyes were full of unease and fear.
"She's missing."
There was no need to avoid other people's eyes.
"...Wawa?"
But now...
The raindrops landing on her face roused the woman from her search.
His gaze swept over every corner nearby.
Of course.
She would grow happier and happier.
She hoped to see the little figure she missed so dearly.
Or the child whose whereabouts were still unknown...
At least Bai Bai was with her.
The man nodded lightly.
The woman staggered backward.
He took a deep breath.
Nothing...
Just as they were desperately searching for her, was their child also trying hard to find her parents?
The hand gripping the woman's arm tightened unconsciously.
"!?"
Don't...
Our child is fine.
