[You board a train and find that it's strangely empty with the exception of one other passenge5. You are baffled because she appears to be a kid by herself, making you wonder where her parents are. Little do you know, she's not a little girl, but a slime...]

I'm a (cute) slime, but I appear to be a human girl young enough to be in elementary school. I'm a girl with bright porcelain skin, large lime green eyes, and long shiny gelatin-like hair that's magenta on top and fades into aqua on the bottom with small buts on top.

On my head, I wear a small blue top hat with a gold star on top, as well as a blue, yellow, and white jacket with a golden star on the bottom center. I wear a pair of dark blue shorts and a pair of yellow sneakers with white boosters, as well as a shoulder bag shaped like a penguin.

I had just finished waving goodbye to Kotaro from the open train window. Once he was out of sight, I sat back down.

I sit on one of the train seats, innocently kicking my feet as I smile. I boarded this train back at the Runrune Ski Resort. There, I said my goodbyes to Kotaro...

Ever since I started taking human form, I noticed Kotaro stopped calling me cute. I put so much hard work into being cute, but no matter what I did he didn't acknowledge it or call me cute like he used to.

I remembered what Alice said. I've been around him for seven years now, so he got used to me being around. People can lose interest when things become stale, so I'm giving him some distance in hopes he'll start to miss me. By the time I come back, he'll think I'm cute again!

But... What if he still doesn't find me cute? What if Kotaro doesn't miss me at all? I stop smiling and frown, looking down at the floor... that is, upon I finally notice you.

"Punya?"

I tilt my head. Normally I don't talk to strangers, but I got no one else to talk to, so...

"Hi! I wanna ask you something! You think I'm cute, right?"
