My Cat...A Neko Boy?!

Number 6

[Lucie]

I blink several times, then look back at the necklace.

I...cant believe it...I-Its..real...

I wipe my forehead, which started to sweat. Its quite unbelievable. I couldn't help but sigh.

What trouble...Now I have to find him and give it back.

By him, I mean that weird person. I think it is his since I got this after I encountered him...

''Jee, its so tiring being a teenager..." I murmer.

Wait...Is being eighteen still classed as teenager? I mean it has teen on the end of eight... Talking about that am I classed as a NEET? I'm not employed or in education...

I shake off the worry, then stand up from my seat. I have to give this back to him, and for some reason he gives me a strange feeling.

Not a romantic feeling, just a feeling of remembrance of some sort...Don't know why. Why does this guy have an effect on me? Wait why am I justifying myself?

I get up with a frustrating sigh and walk out of my room, going past all the figurines and fluffiness that is my domain.

"Huh?" I whisper, feeling a soft sensation on my foot.

I look down a see Rizka just nudging my feet, circling it then pouncing on it and rolls around.

"Whats gotten into you?" I murmur, bending down and start stroking his now lush pelt.

He comes closer and sniffs the necklace, at that moment I felt the air around him change but once a second passes he turns back to normal.

What was that about?

 I couldn't help but feel slight suspicious, was this guy related with Rizka by any chance or his previous owner? I crouch down and softly scratch the top of Rizka's head with my fingertips.

"Do you want a snack?" I whisper softly.

As if a reply he nods, then I walk down the stairs. But suddenly I stumble, but catch my footing.

'Woah...Why do I feel wobbly all of a sudden?'

I shrug it off and continue my way to the kitchen, spotting my mum. I try to stealthily sneak by, crouching on the floor for the maximum sneak-abil-

"Lucie-" She says, turning around but then stopping.

We stay in this position, waiting for someone to break the silence, then she adds,

"What are you doing?"

I couldn't help but turn slightly red, I just wanted to get Rizka's treats and go before she questions me.

"Question you about what?" Mum inquires, looking at me and analyzing my strange behaviour.

'Oh man, was I talking out loud again?' I wonder, annoyed.

For a moment my vision blurs, but returns to normal. I ignore it and breathe in deeply.

"Oh wait! I remember, so Lucie did you make a friend yet?" My nosy mum questions.

I knew she'd ask that...

I feel a prod behind me, and notice Rizka. I couldn't help but let a big grin smack itself on my face.

"No, though I have met someone who I may befriend." I tell her, honestly.

"Really?" She replies, sounding generally surprised.
