[Distant past, Village]
The next day Alda was left in his own thought as he unknowingly walk straight to the tree just right outside of the village's fences
He was thinking about the words that Mia told him when he was down
"Will you be my friend?"
That kind of words kept repeating inside his mind, unbeknownst to him he already arrived under the tree while he was in deep thought
The moment he arrived, he started to look around looking for Mia
As he was looking for her a voice suddenly spoke up above him which caught his attention
"So you returned to this place!"
When he looked up he saw Mia standing up from a branch. Using that as a foothold Mia jumped below and landed safely beside Alda
"So what made you come here?" Asks Mia as she draws closer to Alda
Due to that Alda got a little bit flustered by the sudden approach
"Well... I thought about what you said yesterday but first let me apologize for running away from you... I'm sorry" bowed Alda
During those times when Mia asked Alda to become her friend, the latter was so not into the mood that he belittled her request and ran off to somewhere leaving Mia behind
"Oh that?! Don't mind it! After all it was just in a spur of the moment" replied Mia while attempting to climb back up again
Hearing that Alda felt dissatisfied
"No I'm truly sorry... So if you please! I would like to be your friend" said Alda hurriedly seeing that Mia was about to let go of the matter
When Mia heard this she was stunned for a moment and turning her gaze at him
"What did you say?" Asks Mia
"I said I want to be your friend!" Said Alda as he bowed sincerely
Upon hearing that Mia giggled as she tries.to hold her laugh
When Alda saw Mia's reaction he felt wronged but quickly Mia ascertained him that she didn't meant it that way
"Sorry about that!..." Apologized Mia
With that Alda felt dejected
"If that is the case then...."
Before Alda could finish his words Mia interrupted him
"Sure!"
Hearing that Alda became stunned
"What?" He asks
"I said sure why not?! From this point onward we are friends" said Mia as she smiled childishly
Hearing this Alda felt grateful as he brimmed with enthusiasm and happiness
From that point onwards Alda became friends with Mia and they stay close to each other as much as they could
After few days when Mia and Alda where sitting beneath the tree, they saw a group of adventurers passed by their village with a happy expression
Out of nowhere Mia said
"You know what!!! I want to be an adventurer" she said
"Really?" Asks Alda
"What a coincidence! I was thinking the same thing" added Alda happily
Hearing his reaction greatly surprised Mia
