Idan found Ina on the terrace of his house. She sat caressing Lissa's fluffy fur, and Idan couldn't help but envy her. This charming Fox wouldn't let him near her, and he had no way of feeling what her fur felt like.
When he approached, Ina looked up at him in surprise and blurted out:
"So fast?"
"I hurried as fast as I could for you," Idan said, sitting down next to her.
Lissa stood up and pointedly pulled away from him. Idan could have sworn he saw a grin on the fox's face that made his right eye twitch.
"Brother," — Ina called out, without looking up, she continued to look at her feet, trying to find the right words.
Idan, noticing this, said:
"You mentioned that you wanted to discuss something with me. I'm all ears."
Ina pulled herself together, looked up and said with confidence in her voice:
"I want to be like you."
There was a pause.
The brother and sister looked at each other, and Ina was the first to look away.
"Like me? What do you mean?" interrupted Idan.
