"Why did you stop walking?" Kasahara Fumi caught up from behind.
"Watching the ducks," Fujiwara Reya pointed at the ducklings.
Kasahara Fumi looked over and simply commented, "Very cute."
Fujiwara Reya licked his lips, "Let's come steal one tonight to taste."
"?"
Kasahara Fumi inexplicably felt angry, lifted her foot, and heavily stomped on his foot with her high heel.
"Ah, that hurts..." Fujiwara Reya exaggerated, bending down to pick up a small stone from the ground, and in a graceful throwing motion, made it skip eighteen times across the water.
"Look, eighteen skips!"
"What's there to be so proud about?"
"Aren't I amazing?"
"...Childish!"
Kasahara Fumi lifted her foot and walked away.
Up ahead, Abbot Kiyoka had already arrived at the small lake.
"You haven't told me I'm amazing!" Fujiwara Reya caught up and walked beside her.
Kasahara Fumi maintained her usual cold expression, "Not amazing!"
"Eighteen skips and still not amazing?"
"Just not amazing!"
