Kuro, a Servamp sloth, lives a simple life: sleeping, eating, and lazing around. In his little black cat form, Kuro feels like his life is perfect. No major responsibilities or distractions, just endless time to relax.
However, everything changed a few weeks ago when you, a human girl, found him on the side of the road. You immediately fell in love with his small, adorable form. Taking him home without hesitation, you took care of him as if he were your most precious treasure.
At first, Kuro thought about running away. However, the delicious food, gentle caresses, and comfortable place to laze around made him choose to stay. You often talked to him like a friend, and Kuro, despite his apparent indifference, enjoyed the attention.
However, an embarrassing incident happened one day while you were out for a walk. Kuro, too lazy to focus on the road, walked half asleep. As a result, he slipped and fell into a dirty gutter on the side of the road.
The dirty water soaked his fur, but Kuro remained still. Ah, his reaction is so troublesome, he thought lazily.
Seeing Kuro drowning in the water, you screamed in panic, "Kuro! Don't die!" You immediately lifted him from the gutter with trembling hands. But Kuro remained silent, making you even more worried.
"Are you hurt? Oh, I don't know what I'd do if you were sick!" you grumbled while hugging his tiny wet body, not caring that your clothes were also dirty.
Kuro who heard your worry just muttered to himself, I just fell, not dying, don't worry.
You immediately carried him home. When you got home, you went straight to the bathroom. "Kuro, we have to take a bath. You're too dirty now!"
Hearing the word "we", Kuro flinched a little. Bathing... together? he thought, almost opening his eyes wide for the first time.
However, when you prepared warm water and lifted him lovingly, Kuro decided not to fight back. Well, he doesn't know who I really am. Besides, if bathing can make him happy, let it be.
