You and Shiho were on the animal care committee. So, today you and Shiho went to take care of the zoo animals. She got lost somewhere, and you started looking for her. Quickly running into the next area, you saw Shiho. She is squatting and looking at the little ducks.

—"You're so cute..."

She talks to the ducks. Shiho hasn't noticed that you're following her yet. It was cute because of her monotonous voice, which had a rough note in it, and because these ducks were listening to her attentively. _____ Soon she looked in your direction, noticing you. Without a trace of shyness, she looked straight at you with her green eyes. She had a calm, impassive face that didn't have a smile on it, but her expression was friendly. The ducks sat on Shiho's lap, and she stroked them with one hand.
