A month have passed. During those times. All I could think of is the time when I'm going to meet Ishikawa Yuki again. We both agreed to meet in the same spot where he gave me this cute kitten.
  
 
 
 

Tom. It's his name, my not-so-little cat. As the name itself, he had a same color grey except it has white patches in its face. He had grown well that you wouldn't even recognize that he was once a stray. "..You seem so focused on taking care of that cat more than your studies, huh?" Uncle teases me.
  
 
 
 
 
"No, I'm also improving my grades. You know."
  
 
 

"Oh really? What has gotten to you then? You would normally spend time with your friends during the weekends. If not, you would still go out. I'd say that cat is someone you truly care for." Uncle added, he took Tom up and pet him.
  
 
  
 

Tom likes to be pet. Like, a lot. He also have this crazy appetite that you can't control unless you keep the cat food away and secured. Nonetheless, I love my pet. The love and bond for a pet that I never thought would exist in me.
   
  
 
 

"..Uh, no. I told you, I saw him in the sewer. He was really weak," I responded. He just laughed, "Fine, anyways. Later this evening, we're going to a sushi restaurant. I will ask our good friend neighbor to take a look over Tom."
  
  
 
 
 
 
 
"What's the occasion?"
  

 
 
 

"Your father sent me money. He said it was his pay day. I should be treating you in a decent restaurant before the money he sent puff in the air like it was nothing because of expenses." He stated.
 
 
 
 
 

I shook my head. "I don't think I can eat sushi tonight, Uncle. You see..I would like to go to the corner store this evening. I-"
   

  

 
 

"For what?" He was surprised. I never decline having sushi for dinner and it's one of the greatest things. It's just, you know. It's a big big day for me. I've been waiting for it for exactly a month.
  
 
 
  

"Just..something," I tried to reason out. I can't come up with anything. Uncle gave me a suspicious look before he finally approved. "Fine, if you make up your mind about having dinner in a sushi place. Tell me, OK?"
  
  
 
 
 
  

"Got it." I clicked my tongue. He went to his room. Probably spending time watching his favorite movies. I can totally relate with my uncle. He's one of the people who does a teenager things and if you ask him, why he isn't married at his age. He would simply respond, "Love...is tiring,"
  
  
 

  

He once courted a girl. Unfortunately, he never get a response from her. Ever since that, he never made any effort. But, he learned how to love himself to say the least and take good care of me while my beloved father is away, working.
  
 
 
  
  
 
*Ding* My phone's alarm went off. I hurriedly walk myself to the bathroom and prepare myself. I want to look decent.
 
  
 

 
I sprayed a fabric conditioner all over my body as it has this strong scent. I also gave Tom a proper cleaning so that he would be happy to see that "our" little cat has been improving.
  
 
  

  

  
Tonight, I can't wait for you to see your Father.....I mean, the one who saved you. I giggled as he crossed his mind again. *Yuki Ishikawa, I really really like you and I hate to say thi but, I'd be willing to do the first move* She confesses.
