“Oh, thank goodness!” sighed Fluttershy. “I’m glad to know that all these animals are OK,” she thought.

“I never knew that you had so many animals, Fluttershy,” I remarked.

“It’s true,” she answered. “Aren’t they adorable?” she asked me.

“Not as adorable as you are,” I answered.

Fluttershy could only blush upon hearing my compliment.

“Say,” I asked her, “do you have a telephone that I could use?”

“Yes,” she answered, “but its noisy ringing scares me.”

“I’d like to call somepony over,” I explained. “Maybe she can help you,” I suggested.

Fluttershy gave me instructions on where to find her phone.

“Please put it away after you use it,” she asked of me, very politely. “I don’t want to be anywhere near it,” she explained.

“I will—I promise,” I told her, and trotted back inside to use her phone.

“He is so kind,” she thought.
