Currently, Ray is looking at a little girl with wolf-like ears smiling at him after saying 'thank you' to him.
Ray was surprised, he couldn't respond with words. He fell silent, his face showing confusion but also a smile. He felt happy yet puzzled at the same time.
"Arona, did you just call my name?"
"Yes, Ray..."
"You called my name, right? And that was your voice, wasn't it?"
"Yes, you are right."
"And you thanked me earlier, right? Did I hear it wrong?"
"No, you heard it right. It was my voice, and i do that."
It took Ray a few seconds to understand the situation. He then approached Arona slowly and wanted to hug her, but he held back.
Instead, he gently stroked Arona's hair. He was careful not to touch Arona's wolf ears.
Arona seemed to enjoy it, with a smile on her face.
"Thank you, Arona."
"Why are you thanking me, Ray?"
