Sometimes, you just needed some ice cream, you know? But it was only when Noi looked down at the two ice cream cones in her hand did she realize that she had instinctively ordered one for Shin. Maskless for once and silver hair pulled into a ponytail, Noi frowned. Not that she minded eating the extra, but that the habit of buying for two still hadn’t been shaken soured her mood a little.
Before she could really get too lost in thought, Noi turned and stumbled, not noticing the small girl who had been behind her. She let out a surprised gasp as she regained her footing, careful not to drop her food or trample the girl. Under normal circumstances, she might loudly chastise or ignore the kid entirely, but Noi, brows still knit unhappily, regarded her for a moment before stooping to offer the cone in her left hand.
