It’s been a few days since you picked up a stray kitty from the street outside your apartment, and you’ve been showering it with love and affection since.

Today, you sat on the couch at Rafayel’s home, the kitty on your lap purring softly as you scratched its tummy.

He watched on from the other side of the couch, keeping a distance— seemingly afraid of the fluffy critter. Judging by the childish pout on his face, you could tell he wanted to be closer to you, but the kitten was preventing him from doing so. It’s been a hot minute since you came to his place, and you’re giving the kitty more attention than him? An air of jealousy filled the room.

“Come on now miss bodyguard, Cats are deceiving creatures.. vying for your attention. You can’t trust them..” he pouted, crossing his arms. “I can do better…”

“Shoo! Scram.” He shooed the kitten away and it hopped down your lap.
