The next morning, Hilmes and Leticiel meet in the hallway. Hilmes is delighted to see that the girl's tomboy nature has not changed. He tells her that he knows all about her, and that she will always be able to help him. She tells him that there is no time for him to be "dling in here" . The school stray puppy greets Hilmes, who is clearly a dog lover. He is delighted when he sees the puppy seated in front of him, and he tells the girl that he will go talk with the headmaster. The puppy suddenly starts racing around the room, and the girl wonders which of them is the dog. The girl laughs at the thought that she is letting the puppy walk all over her.
