"I Love You But You're Not Real."

Chapter 4

What's a hedgehog doing at our house?

"PIII~!!!"

I stared at it.

Aww! It's so cute!!! I want to touch
it!!!

.....

I suddenly found myself reaching for the hedgehog. I quickly retracted my hand back and shook my head vigorously.

No (Y/n)! You can't!!! You musn't touch it!!!

With that thought in mind, I clenched my fists, gritted my teeth to fight the urge to touch it.

Gwah! If it only weren't for those stupid spikes! I could have touched it earlier!

It waddled closer to me, making me back away.

"Whoah!"

I tripped on something (your room is messy) and fell on my butt.

The creature is now close to me, right now at my feet.

"How and when did you get here?!
I asked, grabbing a pillow (to defend thy self from thy spikes!).

"PIII~!!!"

"..."

That's expected from an animal.

Silence filled the room but then...

"(Y/N)!!!!!!!"

.....

Oh shit! That's right! Mom was calling me!

I glanced at the hedgehog before making a decision.

"If you're nobody's pet, I'm gonna keep you!"

"(Y/N)!!!"

"I'm coming!"

I took one last glance at the hedgehog before going.

"I'll be right back!"

"PIII~!!!"

I then headed downstairs.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

An unknown person came inside your room, climbing through the window.

He scanned around the room, looking for a certain hedgehog.

Once he has found his pet, he left a note on your windowsill.

"Looks like this herbivore is confused, let's go, Roll!"

"PIII~!!!"

And the hedgehog, who was overjoyed to see his master, jumped out through the window along with him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After a tiring session (cleaning the bathroom XD), It was already night by the time I finally got to return to my room, calling out for the little thing.

"Hello! I'm ba~ck!!"

No 'PIII~!' Can be heard.

"Little thing?"

Still, no response

I searched for the hedgehog, under the bed, under the cabinet, under the pillows, etc., I searched everywhere but still there were no trace for the little thing.

"Where could have the hedgehog gone?"

Hmmm......

I leaned on my windowsill,  pondering where it could have gone.

Maybe it left.....

I was a bit saddened......

I just sighed and looked out the window, admiring the night sky.

As I was looking, I noticed a note on my windowsill.

What's this?

I read it and was shocked at the words contained inside the note.

..........

W-Who left this here?!
