"Mom! Look at that fairy! She's looking at me!!" A group of Step footsteps, barging on the hard surface as pixies and colorful dragons dances on the long beautiful nightfall.
The nation of Castlevale welcoming the new year with warm smiles and traditional celebrations. A young girl around five or six-year-old was sitting on the dirty floor with an awe expression on her face while holding her cat-like blue creature in hand.
"Woah.." she whispered slowly stroking the animal's fur softly as it 'meowed' having a relaxed look.
"Keitha? What are you doing?? Sitting on the filthy ground, your skirt will get dirty as well!" A worried long black-haired middle-aged woman shuffled towards her little daughter with a napkin in her hand, whipping the dirt off her cheeks.
Keitha pouted, crossing her arms giving her mother a grumpy face "mom, I told you I don't want to wear that skirt! why can't I wear pants like my brothers?" The mother tugged a piece of hair behind her ear saying "dear, just this time cause it's a new year after all"
The young fella huffed but agreed neither less. She felt a big warm feeling in her chest as her mother wrapped her pure fingers tightly. Keitha always wondered why did her mother and only her have these warm, kind hands while others not?
She didn't want to admit but she likes it. A small smile appeared on her tiny lips looking away so her mother wouldn't see her happy expression. Little does she know her mom already saw everything so she chuckled 'my cute little angel is being shy~ my daughter is the cutest thing ever'
While the mother was casually fangirling about her daughter, Keitha felt something..was odd..she kept being nervous as if someone or something is watching her every move.
So she suggested her mother keep moving faster which led the middle-aged women to smile with excitement thinking that the girl wants to play more games with her.
The small purple-eyed keitha got a glimpse of white messy fluff from behind the wall. She ignored and continued her walk with her mother and peik the adorable creature.
