Catnap

"How are you Ms. Delight?" I asked. "I'm doing good Catnap. But how about you since...you know...that fateful day," Ms. Delight asks. "I'm slowly getting better," I replied. "Please come in Ms. Delight, we welcome you into our home," Dogday said. Ms. Delight entered our home. "Please follow us to the living room," Dogday said. Dogday took Ms. Delight while I stayed behind. I looked outside to see if he was there. So far nothing but that doesn't mean he is not out there. Looking closely, planning something.

I closed the door, locked it and left it alone. Going upstairs to the living room I see Ms. Delight talking with the other critters. "So Bubba, Kickin, are you still keeping up with your studies?" Ms. Delight asked. "Well, me and Bubba have been trying to figure out the Prototype's weaknesses and where we can locate its files," Kickin answered. "But so far we thought of nothing. We need the file so we can figure out its weaknesses," Bubba said. "I see...other than that, how are you two going?" She asked. Everyone looks at them confused but me on the other hand knows what she was talking about. Its their relationship. They haven't revealed it to anybody but only I know. "Ms. Delight...we haven't told anybody," Kickin said. His face was getting red by the second.

"Guys...what is she talking about?" Hoppy asked. "C'mon spill the beans," Bobby said excitedly. The pressure was too much for them both. If this goes on, then one of them will break. They keep overflowing with questions directed to Kickin and Bubba and they look uncomfortable, more Kickin. Guess I'll know who broke first and I was right. Kickin immediately got up and quickly walked to his room. The questions stopped and I could see Bubba's face worrying about his partner. "I'm sorry for bringing up the subject Bubba," Ms. Delight apologized. Bubba didn't say anything but left as well, to check with his partner. The living room was filled with an intense and awkward atmosphere. "Don't worry about it Ms. Delight. Knowing Bubba, he'll find a way to calm Kickin," Dogday reassured. "Thank you Dogday. You're always one of the brightest people around here. Making sure no one goes through a bad day," Ms. Delight complimented. "Thank you Ms. Delight but it doesn't help much around here," Dogday said. I went closer to Dogday giving him a pat on the shoulder, "Don't say that Dogday, you've been helping me at my lowest. And this was recently, just today," I said.

"It seems that you two have been more closer than before," Ms. Delight said. "A lot has happened this past week Ms. Delight. I've been more protective of this dog more often," I said. "Why so?" She asked. "The Prototype threatened to kill Dogday when I first met him. That was one of the reasons why I'm forced to be in his cult," Catnap answered. I hate the prototype with a passion. He ruined this place and my life. It was so much easier back then. Even though I get abused by the employees, I would rather want that than this hell hole.

"I see. And do you want to stop him?" She asked. "Of course. More than anything to guarantee Dogday's safety," I answered. "Thats good Catnap. Your intentions are inspiring and I'll help you as well," Ms. Delight said. "Really?" Dogday said. "Yeah. Its been so long since I haven't taught and I miss the children. It feels lonely at the school," Ms. Delight said. "I have an idea," I said. Everyone looks at me with curiosity, "I have a favor to ask Ms. Delight," I said. "What is it Catnap?" Ms. Delight asked. "Follow me Ms. Delight, I want to show you something," I said. I led the way with Ms. Delight and Dogday followed all the way to the third floor. I showed Ms. Delight where all the small versions of ourselves and the other toys are. "Would it be possible for them to talk? Just like a baby, they make noise so I believe they can talk along with my two sons. Come here Gabe and Mike," I called out. Gabe and Mike looked around and made eye contact with me and came up to me. "You have two sons?" Ms. Delight asked. "Yep, these two have been with me for two months so I consider them as my own children. You could say I adopted them. Anyway, if you can't see the children, why not go teach these little ones how to speak. I would really like to understand the rest as well as my two sons," I said.
