[ Deep down, she had been hoping that Shadow would accept the gift. Of course a little girl like her would hope for that.

It's okay. I'll hold onto it for now. [ She doesn't look too hurt by the gentle rejection. Seeing how his ears droop and the hesitation, she can sense there is something holding him back, something that might be too uncomfortable to tell her now. Maybe she'll never know. But she can't deny feeling a little disappointed after putting the time and thought into making the accessory. She tries to remain optimistic.
A faint smile remains on her face. Does this stop her from wanting to be friends? No. Over a small material item, that would be silly. There's still time, she would like to think. ]
Stargazing was nice. [ Smiling a little bigger, as an extra reassurance that she's fine with his decision. ] I hope we can make more memories together!
