“Hiii.” The reaction was childish as the little hare jumped back from the rail and grabbed onto one of the highest rung she could reach. Without a sliver of fear she went up one step after another, even stopping after 5 steps to look behind her and see the large island being left behind.
It was when her eyes looked down she saw Hiiro still standing still and not even made an attempt to reach for the ladder. His cheeks were painted red beneath the hand that was covering his eyes. “You not coming?”
He girl shouted with all her might to make sure her question would reach him. The cold wind swept through her words. They were the first she spoke towards Hiiro in confidence as if to acknowledge his good spirit.
“I cannot Missy. Me in the rags up there. You go find a puffyduck.” An eye peeked through two fingers to watch her continue her climb further up. The dress caught a gush of wind and was blown up her black slender legs. His fingers squeezed tight as he saw the hem slide up her thigh. ‘Hiiro go home to wife.Promised, No tempting little girl.’ His mind told himself he is a good man to keep his promise.
The real fact was that Hiiro is truly a gentle soul and always willing to help others. Hough his wife may be another story. Her figure is even bigger than his, her arms covered by golden blonde hair hide her true power. Muscles to carry a tree in a single hand. Always misunderstanding her husband’s intentions and drag him home if he had helped a young lady again.
To her there was no excuse, he married her and she would make sure he would stay with her. Even this moment would be enough to have her explode in jealousy. Unwilling to reason or listen he would lose to her strength. He gave in because he simply loved her with all his being, but that is not what she saw. He was flirting with younger, slender girls. One time she grabbed a tree and snapped it when she saw him get a flower from a girl which pet he had helped from a tree.
Ever since then there had been a rumour in the tribe that wherever Hiiro roamed a monster would appear. A vengeful shriek would scare everything away and sweep him from his place to be dragged back home.
He sighed and gave one last look up just to see the little girl climb over the railing of the upper deck. With a relieved heart his eyes gaze back at the castle. ‘Me is sorry coming home again Greta.’
With a startled face he turns around and looked up again. “Me never got name of Missy!” With his final words her resumes back through the opening down the stairs to continue his job.
All the while the little hare was patting her dress to adjust to its right form and clean a little dirt of. Peoples gazes looked in surprise as to wonder where this little girl came from.
