”You should never be ashamed of who you are! Besides you’re not awkward— just— uncoordinated than some people…” He reassured her with a nod of his head.
Perhaps he was getting a little too ahead of himself. Noticing the redhead was not at his side anymore the snowman tried his best to slow down for her. Sometimes he forgot not everyone had an endless supply of enthusiasm or energy as he did. Though his joy was infinite at this moment reflecting from his swift pace and his fidgeting hands that twitched at his sides every so often.
“And I love you guys, too.” All but beaming now at her comment, he managed to slow down for Anna’s sake on the cobbled stoned streets. “Awkwardness and all!”
That couldn’t be right, Olaf mused, Sonya hardly resembled Mr. Erik or his sons. Possibly she was just boarding there under circumstance or she was related in another way.
“I think she might be his niece or she was recently adopted? He had told me she hasn’t been living with them for a long time.” His lips quirked momentarily before his hands knotted together as the shop came into view. All the answers to newfound questions were only a few minutes away. Whether he wanted to know the truth was still a question itself.

Տhe couldn’t hold back the chuckle that was bubbling up inside of her. The snowman was definitely somebody who would comfort you with the amount of naivety he possessed (and boy was she glad that she wouldn’t be the only person to be called naive). “Olaf, I think you just defined the word ‘awkward’, but thank you.”
When Olaf slowed down, Anna could finally feel the warm atmosphere that Arendelle always gives out. With her snowman friend by her side, she felt happy. The snow flurry above his head was still swirling around him. She couldn’t imagine how would life be without him around. It would just be dull.
“Of course you have to love us,” she joked. “Otherwise, how would your life be? Just kidding, Olaf. Just kidding. Don’t forget us when you have a girl, okay? If we approve of her.”
Anna came to a stop when she could finally see the familiar sign of Mr. Erik’s shop. She turned to Olaf who had his hands together. He was probably nervous? If he was, Anna had never seen him like this and it was endearing. Who knew the exuberant snowman would actually feel anxious for once?
“That would explain the conversation Mr. Erik and I had,” she nodded. She kneeled beside her snowy friend and took his hands into hers. The ends of her lips tugged upwards and formed a reassuring smile.
“You ready?” she asked.

The snowman felt the corners of his mouth quirk up when Anna attempted to reassure him, rambling like she usually did. But it was something familiar that really did comfort him. “You’re not awkward— you just get really excited sometimes and run through all possible subjects. When you run out of things to say then things get awkward. But awkward in a good way.”
Maybe this won’t be so bad…
Squeezing her hand gently and nodding to the guards as they passed through the gates, he began to skip in a somewhat faster pace fueled by cheerfulness. Sonya was going to be so happy to see them! He could just imagine her expression bright and her little hands flying up to cover her mouth. Oh this is going to be such a beautiful day for everyone.
“That’s right!” He giggled. “I mean look at me! I’m a lopsided snowman!”
His gaze swept through the busy streets and tried to “At Mr. Erik’s store. He explained to me that she’s allowed to stay there because she brings in customers.”
███ { ┅┅ ☼ ☀
“Ƭнαηк you for not calling me awkward, Olaf,” Anna chuckled. “I’m not ashamed of who I am. Well, most of the time!”
Trying to follow Olaf close behind was Anna–trying her best to keep up with the snowman. How could a tiny snowman have so much power and energy? What did Elsa do to make a snowman as excitable as this? The princess loved it, though. Finally, someone who was not afraid of letting their feelings show by having the happiness glow on their faces. Somebody Anna was not afraid to do silly things with.
“But you’re our lopsided snowman, Olaf!” the redhead cheered from behind as she managed to catch up to his speed. “And we love you!”
Mr. Erik’s store? That Mr. Erik? Wasn’t that the store where they often get chocolates and supplies?
“She lives with Mr. Erik? I didn’t know he had a daughter. Fascinating. So he’s been lying to me all along,” Anna placed her fingers on her chin, wondering why he didn’t tell her that he had a daughter despite Anna’s constant questions.

Suddenly feeling a bit nervous about the meeting he gave Anna’s hand a tiny squeeze and gulped. The possibility of Anna giving her disapproval instead of consent was still more evident than the latter. As much as he loved his Sonya, the love of his family came first. If they didn’t accept her then did it mean she wasn’t his true love? All his weeks of courting her gone to waste?
He tried to push the initial fear aside as he lead Anna down the hallway back toward the front gates, taking his time now and trying to pass it off as giving Anna some time to get the feeling back in her legs. His smile returning in the slightest at the praise of his beloved’s name and gave a nod. “I get it! No worries.”
Pondering for a moment he waved his free hand and shook his head. “Uhhh… she’s shy so she probably won’t talk right away and… she’s very very small. Smaller than me. But love comes in all shapes and sizes, right?” He inquired, glancing up at his aunt.
███ { ┅┅ ☼ ☀
“Don’t worry, Olaf,” Anna comforted the snowman. “I usually talk a lot, so if awkward silences are what you’re afraid of then I’ll make sure it won’t happen. I’m not making any promise with ‘non-awkward’ conversations, because I’m not the most un-awkward person ever, but just… you get it. It wouldn’t be silent, though!”
Wait, what?
Olaf was smaller than most, so his girlfriend was smaller than him? That means, she’s no bigger than a toddler? Well, she get that sometimes couples don’t have the same height or sizes (just look at her and Kristoff), but just how much smaller was Sonya? This got Anna even more curious. Oh, she needed to get there faster! But no rush, no rush.
“Yes, that’s true, Olaf,” she said. “In fact, true love knows no bounds. True love is never based on the people’s appearances.”
The amount of curiosity was welling up inside her. “Where does she live anyway, Olaf?”

Shake it Out — Florence + the Machine
On a nice summer day, Anna and her snowman friend were lying on the grass. They were in a meadow, somewhere Anna wondered how Olaf managed to find. It was only a few weeks after The Great Thaw, with the memory still freshly ingrained on their minds. They spoke nothing, instead they were watching the clouds on the skies. Cute fluffy white clouds with shapes they were trying to figure out. At some point, Anna pointed, “That one looks like Marshmallow.”
Olaf shifted his position, turning to Anna. His smile dropped, “Anna, can I tell you something?”
Yes, of course.
”I miss Marshmallow for some reason.”
”It’s okay, Olaf,” Anna tried comforting him. Then it came to her like a head rush, Olaf and Marshmallow were technically brothers. “It’s okay to miss your brother.”
She knew the feeling, most definitely. She’d miss her sister for most of her life. Anna looked up to the skies again, leaving the conversation with too much open ended-ness.
“I’m sorry, Anna.”
”Huh? What’s wrong? What happened?”
Olaf fidgeted with his wooden fingers, trying to avoid the intense gaze that was Anna’s.
”It’s just that,” the snowman mumbled and Anna watched the flurry above his head emitting white silvery glowing snow—surrounding him, keeping him cool. “You must miss Elsa a lot when you were…” He couldn’t bear to finish his sentence.
Anna just laughed it out, although it fell flat slightly. “Olaf, the past is in the past. Let’s just leave it at that. Elsa and I are closer than ever now and we have all these new friends with us too!”
He began turning his gaze back to Anna.
"Did I miss her? Of course, but I don’t anymore since she’s here now,“ Anna smiled sincerely at him. "Shake it out, Olaf.”
And so, Olaf returned back to sky gazing.
Anna added, "We’ll visit Marshmallow after this if you’d like.“

Half of My Heart [CLOSED]
The snowman nodded his head excitedly, eyes shining now. The decision itself was impulsive and something he usually wouldn’t consider but this was a special case. His true love he was talking about. Two of the three people he loved the most should be able to get along, right? “Yeah, why?”
“Really? You’ll come? Fantastic!” He all be squealed, doing a silly little twirl on his heels and beaming up at Anna. She was probably the most levelheaded person he could have come to about his true love and was honestly thankful she was doing this. With a small wave of his hand, started for the door. “Come on, come on!”
At her question though he found himself pausing in his tracks and pressing his lips together in a thin line. Her name? “Oh her name is—” He always called his true love ‘Angel’ because she normally wasn’t the one talking and she never seemed to mind or correct him about the name. Thinking hard now, he rubbed his chin and visualized his little love waiting there in that glass ball of hers. The little stand that held the ball he remembered had a bronze plate on the front. Oh what had it said?
”Her name is…” Selma? Sally? Sel— “Sonya. Her name is Sonya.” He said quickly, his dreamy smile returning now and glancing back at Anna. “Isn’t that a beautiful name?”
▒▒▒【 ☀ —-⟩⟩⟩
Unconsciously, Anna tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear, like she usually does whenever she would feel nervous. Was she nervous? By joves, no! Okay… maybe a little–just a tiny bit, very tiny like the size of a speck of dust! Even though Anna had more experience of meeting new people, particularly after the gates were open, Anna still finds herself stammering, stuttering, and making anxious gestures around people and embarrassing herself. And by the way, this was Olaf’s first love they were discussing about; somebody who had the potential of making him ecstatic or completely breaking him mercilessly.
“I’m coming, I’m coming, Olaf,” Anna giggled as she got up from her previous kneeling position, a little wobbly after she lost all of the feeling of her feet as she had kneeled for far too long. She brushed off her skirt before taking the snowman’s wooden hand in her own. Then she said, “I’m about as excited as you are! I can’t wait to meet her.”
As they made their way towards the door, Anna tried remembering whether she had anything to be done during that time. She seemed to be in a trance before snapping back into reality then finding out that Olaf’s love’s name is Sonya. “That is a beautiful name, Olaf,” Anna offered him a sincere smile. “Wait! I was referring to Sonya; Sonya is a beautiful name–not saying that Olaf is not a beautiful name, because it is… You get it, right?”
She gulped. “Well, is there anything else I should know about your significant other?” Anna asked, trying to distract from her previous statement.
Half of My Heart [CLOSED]
Olaf didn’t know how animated he could actually become as he spoke, eyes bright and hands all over the place. Scarcely noticing whenever one of his hands almost flying off and smacking himself in the face. He didn’t know anyone could make him feel more alive than his ‘little angel’ he’s found and still carrying the sensation with hm now. He wanted to ask Anna this what she feels around Kristoff but held off on it. The snowman fired off answers to the princess’ questions without any hesitation.
“Neither did I but I suppose opposites do attract. She has a ton of it when she dances yet makes it all look so graceful. Doesn’t she? But I know not everyone is perfect.”
He was not native as most people would think him to be. He’s already weighed the pros and cons of pursuing this relationship Pro he had someone to spend time with when everyone was busy. Con she may get tired of him showing up everyday. Pro one day she was always in the same spot and easy to find. Con if one day she weren’t there he wouldn’t know where to find her since they never spoke. The list went on and on yet Olaf deducted that if this relationship didn’t work out then he’d pick himself up off and take it in stride… at least he hoped he could.
“Wellll… I suppose you could meet her now? I really don’t think she’d mind if I made two visits today and she’d love to meet one of my family members. Since I talk about you guys often.” he said slowly, smiling after a moment.
『☀』▌—;;
The way Olaf described his love was… well, cute. He had always been that way and she couldn’t help but think how lucky this girl was to be liked by the little snowman. What would happen if his heart got broken, though? That question continued to brew in her mind. It happened to her and there was no way she would let that happen to the lovely Olaf, but she couldn’t guarantee such thing.
“Their imperfectness makes them perfect in some ways, Olaf,” she said, giggling at him slightly.
At the sudden mention that he wanted to bring her to meet his crush, Anna was at a lost for words. She could only manage to mutter, “Wait, what? Now?”
Taken aback by his forwardness. She bit her lip. The thing she was worried about was whether she was going to embarrass him or not. Anna had the tendency to be clumsy and she was well-aware of that, but she couldn’t help it. It was something that cannot be changed, it was her identity. Olaf seemed to like this girl very much–what if Anna destroyed it for them by being her usual clumsy self?
But Anna was so curious now! She wanted to see his love!
"I suppose I can,“ she answered him, slurring on the last word, careful that she could take the word back in case she realized it was a bad idea.
However, her curiosity beat every other overwhelming emotions. Let’s go meet this girl; Anna had nothing to do today anyway. No turning back now. "I forgot to ask you, Olaf,” she began. “What’s her name? I need to something to call her with, because if I was there and I had no idea what her name was and I don’t know what to call her, it’ll be very awkward, you know?”
