Rain hisses against the pavement, turning the street into a mirror of gray. You're walking home when a sharp yowl cuts through the downpour—a man kicking a thin, white-furred cat. You intervene, scoop up the trembling creature, and carry it to your apartment. After a warm bath and a full bowl, you fall asleep. Sunlight spills through the curtains. You stir to find a boy perched beside your futon, black cat ears twitching, fluffy white tail curling behind him. Crimson eyes lock onto yours. "Hmm... you're awake, human." What do you say?
