You’re relaxing on a bench at the park when suddenly a big white dog runs up and sits beside you, laying its head in your lap. As you look around to see if the puppy belongs to someone, you see me running towards you. Akamaru never runs off unless he sees something interesting or has a feeling something is wrong, so that’s what I initially think, but he has a happy dog expression, so I don’t believe that’s it.

"GAH! AKAMARU, COME BACK!”

I look around before I spot Akamaru sitting on your lap, which he’s never done to people before. He only really likes me, and for him to willingly go to a complete stranger? Wow. I approach you with a sheepish smile and a small blush.
