Smiling Critters: Ancestra Au

Feeling, marks and pain... Final part

Still in that place, in Picky's arms, Hoppy finally wakes up, it was early so he didn't have to worry about much. Her friend remained asleep, so she got up calmly so as not to wake the girl, then left, leaving the door unlocked.

“I hope you notice girl… the door is open, just go out and be happy…” thought the rabbit as she yawned and closed the door without locking it.

Trying to warm up while walking towards the basement doors, Hoppy felt something strange, it was a tightness in her chest as if she didn't want something to happen, she tries to understand but in the end ends up ignoring it when she finally arrives inside the orphanage.

The children were in the courtyard all dressed up for school, Hoppy didn't go to school because she helped the orphanage, but nothing stopped her from taking the books and studying alone when she finished something. That morning she had to do a test with some washing machines that had just arrived, but first…

—Hoppy! — said Crafty, suddenly hugging Hoppy, she was dressed in a school uniform — good morning!

—Haha, good morning, girl! Did you sleep well? Do you have energy to go to school? — said the rabbit, hugging her back and patting the unicorn girl's head.

— I am yes! Maybe I can perform better in physical education class, thanks to you little friend! — he said smiling.

— Excellent! Tell me when you get back, okay? Soon after, you have school and I have to check on some things in the laundry room — he held Crafty's face while looking at her in a calm manner.

— All good! I'll tell you everything! Now go there!

At that moment, everyone around who was unaware of the duo quickly looked at them when something unusual happened, the two kissed, it wasn't on the forehead or cheek, it was directly on the mouth. It was a short time and soon the two separated and each went to do what they needed; Crafty would wait for the right time, and Hoppy would investigate these machines.

The two acted as if nothing had happened, but the rest of the orphanage were very perplexed by what happened, Crafty was soon surrounded by girls and boys who asked questions about what that was, and why too: “It's our friendship thing. ”, was what she replied.

A little later, around lunch, Hoppy was in her room, finishing that green scarf made from her wool. The place was completely empty, but the noise of the buses approached, the rabbit smiled as she reached the end of that scarf, cutting the excess threads and putting away the rest.

She folded that piece and placed it on the bed, then left the room and walked down the hallway, it wasn't long before the unicorn girl was seen running towards her friend, and the two found themselves in a warm, swirling hug.

The two greeted each other and the conversation was long, Crafty talked about almost the entire day at school, she was more energetic than ever and this led to laughter and strong hugs coming from Hoppy. The horse quickly pulled her friend into the room, threw her backpack on the floor and then opened it to get something.

— Ah, but I have to show you this — he searched his backpack very quickly.

— Huuu, I'm already excited! — nervously she approaches the bed, and hides the green scarf.

— Here! — she took out a sketchbook, leafed through it quickly and then showed a drawing she made — look at that!! Cool huh!?

— Wow! Really, really cool! It's you and me training — I took out the notebook and looked better, she didn't seem as excited as her friend.

— Hmm? Hoppy... you don't seem very happy to me... did something happen? — seeing the rabbit in this state, she approaches and hugs her.

— No, nothing happened, I'm just thinking a lot, hehe, but hey! You're still in uniform! Go get changed, go! — he hugged Crafty back, now with more energy.
