It is 7:00am. You wake up and explode into pandiculation. The soft tip of your index finger gently taps the 'stop' button on your phone's alarm. Although you were usually no morning person, today you feel like one.
You rub your eyes and pull on a green sweatshirt. Your feet gently place on the floor as they pad along the hallway towards the bathroom where you brush your teeth and get ready.
Once you got ready, you slip on your dirty black and white converse and leave the house.
Your feet skid across the ground. You feel like you should still be in bed but you are excited yet nervous for today, but you stop in your tracks.
"Huh?" you say to yourself as you hear a faint sound. You can hear a distant meowing coming from the bush infront of you.
The meows are repetitive and sound desperate, so you approach the bush and you see a small black cat with a thorn in its paw.
You gasp when you see the cat as you crouch down on your knees. You stroke the cat reassuringly and you gently remove the thorn from the cat's paw and softly stroke it. The cat purrs and nuzzles you, as it slowly walks infront of you and sits down.
"He likes you," a voice said from behind. It made you jump and you look behind your shoulder to see a tall ginger male smiling down at you. "Sorry, did I scare you girlie?"
The cat hisses at the ginger and hides behind your legs when you stand up to face him. "Nah it's fine," you say, even though you were slightly concerned for him calling you 'girlie'.
"Jiji hates most people," the guy says as he glances at the hissing cat. "I guess you're just different from other girls," he says jokingly.
"Oh my gods, don't say that!" you say laughing awkwardly, you weren't really the 'social' type of person, but you tried to be. "I think he's only fond of me because I took a thorn out of his paw. Jiji's a nice name though. Was he named after Jiji from Kiki's delivery service?"
"Oh he's not mine. He's my friend's, but I'm pretty sure he watches those weird cartoons, so probably," he says.
