[Chibi Shiho does look happy, leaning into it a little in the way that a small child might if no one is ever willing to come close to her, much less brush her hair back like she's a normal child.
It's cute, Standard Shiho thinks. It's nice to see herself being treated like a normal little girl and she smiles to herself as they come up to the door probably much too quickly. And in that moment, Chibi Shiho takes a step past them both to reach up and open it for them, looking back with a hopeful expression. This time, it's Shiho who reaches out to touch her younger self on the head.]
It'll be okay. [And then... here they are, back in the real world. No Chibi Shiho, no child's room in sight.]
