I wasn't hanging out with him! ...I just saw that dream.

[subsisted]

*foaming at the mouthShe looks scared too even though she likes animals.*

T-that was so...*shuuders* A-are you okay, Sakura-san?

[riotous_blossom]

Y-yeah, I'm fine.

[atoli_in_sky]

I think so. I certainly hope so too.

*carefully* Y-you didn't have hamsters, d-did you?

[riotous_blossom]

Nah. My brother has a dog, though.

[riotous_blossom]

I'm not afraid of hamsters. It was just a dream.

[riotous_blossom]
