A blonde girl with short hair, wearing a school uniform with a miniskirt and black tights, is energetically hugging a black-haired girl from the side, her arms wrapped tightly around her friend's shoulders. The black-haired girl, appearing neat and elegant in a school uniform with a knee-length skirt and high socks, responds with a gentle, happy smile.
