THE SUN SLOWLY disappears behind the wooden shed, and the sound of footsteps can be heard. bora's sensitive ears twitch at the sound, and her nose sniffs the air.
the door leading to the recovering garden swings open with a long squeak, and an enormously tall wolf stands in the doorway, his eyes growing wide.
it smells really good.. like vanilla?
legosi's predatorial instincts course through his veins, the smell arousing the feelings that he's kept hidden for so long. he follows the smell to Bora, who jumps, startled at the gray wolf who'd entered the rooftop garden so stealthily.
"h-haru?" the wolf questions, his instincts receding as he becomes hopeful that haru had returned back to the school after breaking his heart. his shoulders relax once he realizes that this rabbit's fur color was a buttercream color, and she had the vanilla smell to go along with it.
vanilla... how sweet. it's almost... addicting?
bora shakes her head gently and returns to care for the lovely greenery.
"i-i'm very sorry, but my name is bora, not haru." she says quietly, her voice laced with traces of tiredness. she looks up, examining the well-built carnivore. "may i be of s-service though?"
"no, i suppose not." he pauses before rethinking his decision. "well, can i stay here? just for a bit."
she ponders this for a second, weighing the pros and cons of having a massive carnivore near her, but she quickly pushes her mental list to the back of her mind, astonished that she would even attempt to judge the seemingly kind wolf.
"hmm, you can stay if you tell me y-your name." she was now welcome to the idea of having company.
"legosi." he says with a smile.
"you're now permitted to remain in my holy grove!" she salutes the tall animal jokingly and returns to her work.
after a few minutes, the rabbit's head begins to bob down before it promptly hit the bed of grass with a soft 'thud'
legosi looks up from his textbook, surprised to see bora's limp body resting in the grass.
"...bora?" he calls out, hoping that she'll jolt up and return to her tending of the flowers. but to no avail. legosi sighs and gets up from his comfy spot under a cherry blossom tree. he walks over to the small animal and picks her up, careful not to hurt any part of her fragile body.
