Chapter 191 – Bear-san Presents the Bear Plushies

Since everybody had finished their cakes, it was time to hand over the plushies.
Still, unlike the cake, there was a possibility that Misa wouldn’t like them.
Even if she did, she might act all grown-up and say something like, 『A plushie? I’m too old for things like that.』
It was a bit late to consider this now, but 10 was a delicate age.
Although there were people who liked plushies even after becoming adults, there were also some children who didn’t like them even while young.

「Misa, can I ask you something? Do you like plushies?」

「Plushies…? Yes, I like them. I take good care of the dog plushie my mother bought for me.」

As soon as she said she liked them, Fina and I felt a sense of relief.

「Okay, there’s one more present we would like to give you.」

「You have more?!」

I took out the plushies from the Bear Box and handed the Swaying Bear plushie to Fina while holding onto the Hugging Bear plushie myself. This way, it would look like we were both giving Misa a plushie.
As soon as I took out the plushies, however, somebody else chimed in.

「Wha-what-what are those!? Those plushies!?」「

Noa cried out.

「They’re plushies of Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear.」

Noa jumped out of her seat and approached us, her gaze locked onto the Hugging Bear plushie in my arms.

「They’re so cute. They look just like the real thing. Yuna-san, please give them to me!」

「I can’t do that. They’re Misa’s presents.」

「Oh, no… Can’t I have one of them at least?」

Noa looked back and forth between the plushies.

「No. It’s not right to split them up, and they are both meant for Misa.」

I would feel bad for separating Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear even if it was only their plushies we were talking about here.

「Why is it not my birthday today?!」

How could I even respond to something like that? If she wanted to complain, she should go to her parents.
Noa fell to her knees, looking depressed.

「Uuu, I really want the Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear plushies.」

Noa looked really sad.

「Um, do you want them that badly?」

「Yes, I really, really want them…」

She lifted up her face and appealed to me.

「Okay, how about I make another set for you later?」

「R-really?!」

Noa got energetic again.

「Yes, so please hold yourself back for today.」

Well, I wasn’t the one making them, Sherry was. Besides, I already knew Noa would want them, so I had already asked Sherry to make a set for her.
Hmm, how many sets would she have ready by the time we returned to Crimonia?
Well, I knew Noa would want them, but I hadn’t thought she would react to them so strongly.

「Okay. I’m sorry for being selfish. However, it’s a promise, right?」

Noa apologized obediently while also reinforcing our promise.
Fina and I then finally approached Misa, with Noa watching us jealously. I had promised her that I would give her a set of her own, so could she stop looking at us like that?
