  Kalmin headed towards his car to get home to his cats. He grabbed his keys from his pocket and went to unlock the door when he saw Emily running in his direction.
  "Hey, I was wondering if you wanted to have that cat play date we had planned to do?" Emily asked
  Kalmin nodded, "Yeah, I would love that. Come over whenever you're ready!"
  "Perfect! I'll see you in a bit!" Emily replied
  Kalmin smiled as he hopped into his car as she ran to get into hers. He drove out of the parking lot to his apartment building. He soon arrived and walked into his apartment to be met by his cats. He smiled and knelt down to give them pets and scratches. He stood back up and walked over to feed his cats before coming up with an idea to get the cats to like each other. He brought the bowls into his room as the cats drank and ate in there. He laid a few puppy pads down on the floor so they could use the bathroom. He closed the door as he waited for Emily to arrive with Sergio. He hoped Sergio liked him and his cats. It wasn't long before a knock was heard and he walked over to the door. He opened the door and Emily smiled at him as she held a cat carrier.
  "Hey! This is Sergio!" Emily told him
  Kalmin looked through the top of the carrier to see Sergio looking up at him. He welcomed them inside and looked at her.
  "Where's your cats?" Emily asked
  "In my room, I wanted to get Sergio used to their scent before letting them introduce each other." Kalmin explained
  "Smart. I'll let him out now then." Emily tells him
  Kalmin nodded as Emily placed the carrier on the ground and opened the bag. Sergio's head popped out of the bag and looked around the room. He knew he was somewhere new and slowly moved out of the bag as he smelled new scents. He rubbed against Emily's leg before he walked over to Kalmin and sniffed him. Kalmin tensed a bit, worried Sergio wouldn't like him, only for him to rub against his leg as well. Kalmin smiled over at Emily to see her smiling as well to see Sergio liking Kalmin. Sergio trotted over to some of the cat toys on the floor and the cat tower as he smelled the other cats in the apartment.
  "I'm worried about how he will do with other cats. He's never been around other cats before." Emily told Kalmin
  "Only one way to find out." Kalmin told her
  Kalmin walked over to his bedroom door and opened it, releasing his cats. Soonie, Doongie, and Dori trotted out of the room and noticed the visitors in the room. Dori trotted over to Emily as he remembered her being here before. Emily smiled and knelt down to pet him as he nuzzled into her hand. Kalmin watched as Doongie and Sergio sniffed each other. Soonie trotted over to Kalmin, and he picked him up like a baby. Emily smiled as she pet Soonie's head as they watched Doongie and Sergio play in the room.
  "Glad they like each other." Emily sighed
  "Same here." Kalmin replied
  He placed Soonie back down as they watched as the cats played together. Kalmin smiled at the interaction before looking at Emily.
  "Want anything to drink?" Kalmin asked
  "What do you have?" Emily asked
  Kalmin gestured for her to follow him into his kitchen. They walked into the kitchen and he opened his fridge to reveal the drinks he has. Juice, Soju, Wine, flavored waters, and Soda.
  "You can also get water from the fridge." Kalmin told her
  Emily grabbed a wine bottle, which he was ok with sharing. He grabbed two glasses and poured the wine into each glass before handing one to her.
  "Thank."
  "No problem." Kalmin replied
  "You are a minimalist, aren't you?" Emily asked
  "Yeah. I've never been one for a lot of things." Kalmin replied
  They sat down on his couch as he turned the TV on. He placed his arm on the back of the couch, behind her head as she placed her drink on the coffee table. Kalmin glanced over at the cats to see them still getting along well and were all spread across the room, sleeping.
  "Where'd you get them?" Emily asked
  "I did a lot of volunteering at animal shelters in middle school. I seen a lot of cats coming in and I wanted to help the best I could, so I saw Soonie and my mom let me adopt him. Doongie was given to me from a friend who had cats and they had kittens. Dori was from an abandoned cat website." Kalmin explained
  "Wow. I love that you did that for them." Emily told him in awe
  "I don't know what I would do if I didn't get them." Kalmin told her
  "I wouldn't know what to do if I didn't have Sergio either." Emily agreed
  "Do you have any questions you want to ask me?" Kalmin asked
  Emily breathed in, "Wow, putting me on the spot!"
  Kalmin chuckled, "I guess I am."
  "What's a secret that you've been keeping from the team?" Emily asked
  "Wow!"
  Emily giggled as he made a thinking face to come up with an answer. He looked down at her as he gave her a serious look.
  "I'm going to tell you something but I need you to keep it a secret from the team. I'm not ready to tell them yet." Kalmin informed her
  "Then why are you telling me?" Emily asked
  "I don't know. I just can seem to trust you." Kalmin muttered
  "Whatever you tell me, I promise to keep it from the team." Emily told him
  "Kalmin is not my real name." Kalmin revealed
  Emily sat up and looked at him with wide eyes out of shock. She felt like he just revealed he was a serial killer right now.
  "What?" Emily asked
  Kalmin chuckled, "My real name is Lee Minho, but when I came to America, I wanted to have an American name, so no one was confused."
  "Lee Minho. Sounds handsome." Emily commented
  Kalmin couldn't help but smile at the comment as she looked at him with a smile. Kalmin had not realized he had been holding her hand this whole time. He began caressing lines on her hand as he continued.
  "There's another thing." Kalmin continued
  "What?" Emily asked
  "I am in a band called Straykids."
