Noa pitched in disappointedly.
「Well then, please accept the Hugging Bear plushie as well. I would feel bad if we were to split them up, so I would be happy if you took care of both of them well.」
I said and presented her with the Hugging Bear plushie.
As I already said, it would be unfair to the real Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear if one was picked over the other.
Even with her small body, Misa managed to hug both plushies tightly while Noa continued to stare at her jealously.
She couldn’t hold it back even for this one day, huh.
「I will take care of them well. Thank you very much!」
Misa said and gave off the brightest smile I had seen from her all day long.
「Misa, you received such cute plushies. How nice!」
「Yes, they’re really nice.」
Misa’s mother smiled at her daughter.
「Oh, but now that I got these Bear-san plushies, I can’t ask you for the favor I wanted you to do for me.」
Misa suddenly said, her hands still occupied with holding the plushies.
「What did you want to ask me to do?」
「You see, I wanted to see Swaying Bear-chan and Hugging Bear-chan again. I was going to ask you to bring them out.」
「You were just going to ask me that?」
「Yes…」
「Why didn’t you say so earlier?」
I summoned Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear in their cub form.
「W-what is this?! Swaying Bear-chan and Hugging Bear-chan are small like the plushies!」
「We made the plushies match their size.」
Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear approached Misa, who scooped them up into a hug while still holding onto the plushies, so she was embracing four bears at once.
「Misa, that’s unfair!」
Noa couldn’t hold back any longer and joined the hugging circle, meaning that the Bears were now all sandwiched between Misa and Noa.
Soon after, the two of them began playing with the Bears together.
Misa’s mother looked at them with a smile then turned to Fina and me.
「Yuna-san, Fina-san, thank you very much for all you did today. It’s been a while since I saw my daughter this happy. Misa has been looking forward to seeing you two again ever since she sent out your invitations.」
I was glad that we came to the party, too.
I just hadn’t expected to be stuck in a dress.
「Please stay good friends with my daughter.」
「We will.」
We replied.
「Yuna-chan, I’m happy you’re making the plushies for my daughter as well, but are there none being made for Princess Flora?」
Eleanora-san asked me while watching Noa play with the Bears.
「They aren’t done yet but are in the making.」
「Huhu, that’s good. If Princess Flora saw them and found out she wasn’t getting any of her own, who knows what might have happened.」
To begin with, I only made these plushies because I was giving them to Princess Flora. So, of course she was getting her own set.
It was just that the order of who I gave them to first got kind of mixed up.
「I’m glad that you’ve given Misa something so nice. Perhaps I should have invited you to my party as well, Yuna. Maybe I would have gotten something nice, too.」
「Gran-san, you also want to get plushies?」
「No, no. I just wanted a surprise of some sort, wouldn’t mind if it was just food. I was curious what kind of present you would give me.」
A present for Gran-san?
I couldn’t think of anything that would make someone his age happy.
Maybe some shoulder-massage tickets? No, no, I wasn’t his grandchild.
What about some antiques, or a rare weapon? His Majesty liked those.
Well, I guessed that nobles liked gemstones, but I, unfortunately, didn’t have any.
I couldn’t think of anything a noble such as Gran-san would like.
Wait… I might have this one thing he would like.
「Gran-san, would you be okay with receiving a decoration?」
「A decoration?」
