That and the cheerful sound of the girl speaking to her, and she beamed in response. “Hi!”

She had paused a second after the greeting, only to figure out exactly how to reply to the introduction. Finally, she settled on following the older girl’s lead. “I’m Stasya,” she continued with a nod. She was willing to elaborate, but for now the nickname seemed okay. Plus, there was a distraction. Animals. “I have a red squirrel!,” she said brightly, even as she realized said squirrel was still partially hiding, but he was poking his head out from her hair curiously. “And I want a goat but so far mama and papa haven’t let me have one. But papa was fostering a puppy and I’m helping.” More since he was away. She didn’t want to let him down.

"Nice to meet you, Stasya." Isa noticed the tiny squirrel peeking out of the girl's hair. "Is that your squirrel? So cute! What's your squirrel's name?" Isa didn't know much about squirrels herself, but one time her mum had rescued an injured squirrel.

Oooh, goats! Isa had read books about goats because she found a book about goat husbandry in Dad's shop! She was by no means a goat expert though.
"What kind of goat do you want? Just as a pet or for meat or dairy? There are lots of different breeds of goats that are bred for different purposes. Do you have a space where you could keep a goat?" Probably not a meat goat. There were also fancy mohair and cashmere goats. Isa started mentally calculating the amount of space that was required to keep a goat and how much food it would need and how she might get one. She lived in a mostly rural area where there were many farm fields nearby. There were plenty of sheep around, but she wasn't sure if she knew of any goat farms. With a bit of research she would probably be able to find one. Hmmm. Yeah, they could totally make this work. She needed to make sure that Stasya would have a place to keep it though. Couldn't just help any random person acquire a goat. Goat owners needed to be responsible and provide the right living conditions for the goat. Could you have just one goat? Did they need goat friends? More things to research. Oh, puppies? Puppies were so cute! A lot of work though. "What kind of puppy? How old is it?" Isa was still thinking about goats.
