Accepting his little sister’s tackle with an equally warm grin, he let out a chuckle for when she fully enveloped him in a tight hug. Eager to return the favor, he wrapped his arms around her waist and squeezed her as well. “Elise! We did see each other just a week ago, but… from now on I’ll be allowed to stay with you guys!”
“Today I’m going to get my sword. I’m a bit excited about that…” He mused, mostly to himself, as he let go of the girl and instead took a hand and set it gently on her head, giving it a small pat.
♔ Elise giggled softly as her brother gently patted her on the head. She let go of him and took a few steps back, looking into his eyes with her own bright and cheerful ones. The girl slightly cocked her head, and said with a teasing frown:
❝ A week is far too looong, Kamui! I missed you! ❞
♔ Her fake frown quickly turned into another lighthearted grin, and Elise extended her arms to give Kamui one more quick hug, before releasing again.
♔ Elise sprinted through the long castle hall, a grin on her face as the figure of her elder brother slowly grew larger and larger. She stretched out her arms and collided with him, her arms squeezing his body in a warm embrace.
