“Uncle, I …”
“Yes. Um, are you uncomfortable?”

All animals were cute; big or small. She was stroking Carrotta in a warm mood, and suddenly there was a commotion among the maids.
When she turned her head to see what was going on, she saw a man approaching her slowly from afar.
A man who looked tall and handsome from afar. There was only one such handsome man in this world who seemed to shine under the sun. As far as she knew, that is.
