บท 408: Stella

The party continued without major incidents. The pups played together in small groups, and they stole glances at Lara the whole time. No matter how busy they were, they always had time to appreciate the bunny aunty walking around and ensuring there was enough food for everyone.

Even the boys usually playing football didn't leave the place so they could see her. They chased each other - far enough from the table - or they sat in front of a puzzle with a confused expression. What was that thing? How did it work?

They wanted to ask Jaden, but he was busy with a small blonde pup.

«Come here, Stella. Let's play together,» he said once their tummies were filled with snacks of many kinds.

The pup followed him, a little unsteady in her walk. As such, Jaden had to offer his hand so they could walk faster. He marched towards his friends while the little girl ran after him, panting but not complaining. She was happy to be with him even if it was a lot of work!
