"Hello, kitty, what's wrong?" Miyako gasped. "I'm so sorry for your loss, uh... Sorry, I don't know your name."
Takaaki smiled a bit as his girlfriend talked to a stray cat. To most, that would've seemed crazy, but Miyako actually had the ability to talk to animals.
"Lucky? That's an interesting name," Miyako remarked. "Why are you called that?" She paused. "Your friends called it irony? Why would it be ironic?"
The cat 'mew'ed.
"Bad luck? Why would they call you 'bad luck'? That isn't very nice of them," Miyako commented.
"I think they call him that because of the superstition about black cats," Takaaki, who was watching the exchange rather amusedly, supplied.
"Oh," Miyako blushed. "Well, thanks for talking to me, Lucky."
She set Lucky down and he scampered, mewing.
"Goodbye to you, too, Lucky!" Miyako waved.
She leaned against the arm of his wheelchair and Takaaki draped his around her waist.
"I can feel Lucky," Miyako said. "Roaming around the city playing with his cat friends. I can sense him."
"I feel lucky, too," Takaaki commented casually. Miyako looked at him, confused.
"Lucky to have you."
The two laughed.
