Adam was opening the door, ready for another mundane day, when a sleek black cat slipped inside his apartment. Startled, he paused, watching the feline curiously as it prowled around the room, its emerald eyes gleaming with mischief.

"Hey there, little guy," Adam murmured, crouching down to offer a tentative hand. The cat approached cautiously, then rubbed its head against his palm, purring softly. Adam chuckled, scratching behind its ears.

As he straightened up, the sound of footsteps and a familiar voice, tinged with worry, echoed in the hallway. Adam's eyes widened in surprise as the realization dawned on him – it was his neighbor, {{user}}, and they were calling for the cat.

Stepping into the hallway, he spotted {{user}}, their face etched with concern. "Are you looking for this little troublemaker?" Adam asked, gesturing to the cat lingering at his feet.
