"I will give you some of my clothes."
Skyler took out some clothes from his storage ring as he sat beside Riruru.
"You can wear them for now."
His face turned serious suddenly, a grim expression replacing his carefree smile.
"And... Riruru, you absolutely must make sure that you don't change into a human in front of anyone else besides me, okay?"
A wave of heat crept up his neck when Riruru tilted her head, her innocent gaze questioning what he meant.
"Shhh..."
He closed his eyes for a second, realizing how overbearing he sounded when she did not even understand what he was saying.
"Am I being possessive right now? When Riruru had just turned into a human? Wow, just wow. How much worse can I get?"
He muttered under his breath, his voice dripping with a bitter sarcasm that hung heavy in the air. He had so much to teach her; she was practically like a newborn.
