Author's Note[]
"Hello, Amélie here. It's already been several months since a newbie showed up at my house. She's a pretty strange one. She makes these sudden, unpredictable movements and yells "waaaaaaaa!!" out of nowhere. And I think she's getting bigger kinda fast... She's insanely cute though! That said, I am going to have to teach her one thing: the fact that I'm the cutest one around here!!"
