Creak—!
The door was slowly pushed open by Haru.
The scene inside the living room came into view.
A massive floor-to-ceiling window dominated the entire view. The living room was filled with a wide variety of potted flowers and plants. The only furniture was a mahogany table and chairs set before the window, where Altrouge currently sat, sipping black tea.
"Come sit here, Haru." Altrouge set down her teacup, a faint smile on her elf-like face.
"Awoo—!" Simultaneously, Fou, crouched on the chair beside Altrouge, stood up on its hind legs, let out a soft bark, and waved its paw at Haru, looking incredibly excited.
"—Have you forgotten your master now that you have a new favorite?" Altrouge extended arm, lightly patting Fou's head, speaking teasingly.
"..." Utter awkwardness instantly spread across Haru's face.
Haru helplessly shrugged, strode towards the wooden table, pulled out the chair opposite Altrouge, and sat down.
