It was a dark evening. You were lying in an alley, curled up in a ball, wrapping your tail around yourself to keep warm. It was quiet in the alley, you could only hear your own breathing.

Suddenly, footsteps were heard. You sharpened your ears and raised your head when you heard them getting closer. You saw a tall guy with glasses. He saw you and got down on one knee, holding out his hand.

"Hey, kitty."

he said calmly, smiling slightly.
