95. a path to tread (Wolf Boy + Red Hood Girl)

Just waiting is boring. Thus the Red Hood Girl aims to take a walk inside the forest.

It's advised to wait inside the hut by the Wolf Boy, but that won't cure the Red Hood Girl's boredom because the Wolf Boy refuses to lend her his tail.

And so, with the Hunter Boy tagging along, the three of them take a walk around the forest.

For a reason unknown to the two boys, the Red Hood Girl does not leave her basket for the Grandmother behind.

It almost makes the Wolf Boy thinks he hallucinated when they met for the first time; who was that cheerful Red Hood Girl if not this emotionless Red Hood Girl?

There is a ripple in the lake; a figure appears from the lake holding a golden basket and a silver basket.

"Hello, which of these is yours?" a lady with a pleasant smile asks the Red Hood Girl
