14 Loaf of kindness

The town is gorgeous, but the people are really stuffy about new comers... They keep barking at us. And I'm feeling really self conscious. I feel like people know my secret and WANT MY ABILITYS. I shiver. Amber pats my shoulder and try's to calm me. "I know who you feel, too many people..." She peers around a ally and we walk over there trying not to be seen. I take my good off.
"It's boiling out here, to bad we can't shif-" amber stopped me.
"Hell no, we can't risk being seen as a cheetah and a fox! BOTH ARE NOT AROUND HERE!" She explains, then looks behind her and shuffles closer to the buildings wall.
"This place is called jamaa township, population of, I don't know, ALOT and people around here are spoiled rotten. They see our ears or tails, SPLIT like a banana in a minion party, got it?" She asks. Her metaphor made me laugh. I nod. "What if people chase us?" I ask. She pointed to my sword that was attached to my scavel, that was on my belt. I grasp it and nod again then slip into the busy street.
"BUY MY POTATOS?" A lady yelled at me as I walked by her stand. I shake me head. She grabs a hand full and shoves it in my face. I stare at her making her back down. I have that way, people bother me, I give them a certain stare and they back down.
Amber signaled us to split up.
"Buy whatever you can with the money you have. Meet me at the ally in an hour," she said I agreed and we went on our ways. 'Find anything yet?' I say mentally knowing she'll hear me.
'Nope. You?' she asked.
'No, but keep looking'
'What for?'
'Something not expensive that we can get, I'll look in a store you do the same!' I walk into a store named, 'Izzy's loaves' I glance at the name and walk in. I look around and see a basket. It had a couple of loaves. It only costed 2$ per loaf! 'AMBER I HIT THE JACKPOT'
'THAT'S GREAT! Where is it?'
'It's called Izzys bread and something or another! Bread is only 2$ per loaf'
'Got it!'
'Wait I thought you said we could only talk like this in our animal forms..' I asked
'I know but maybe we can do it in any form!' She said in excitement. I nod. Even though she couldn't see me.
"Can I help you my dearest?" I jump and see a old woman. She had a orange tabby on the table beside her, a grey and black stripped one bride her playing with the beads on her dress and a few other cats walking or laying around. I walked over to the one at the table and petted it. It purred. I think it knew my secret. I smile. After a few minutes of petting the cat called roman, Amber barged in through the door. "What I miss?" She says panting.
She walks to the counter and Izzy greets her with a big old grandmother like smile. "We would like as much as we have of bread..." She shows Izzy her purse and dumps about 12$ worth of gold coins. The currency, yes.
"Okay you can has six bread loafs. And for you my dear?" She turned to me and pointed I my pack. I rummaged through it and found 10$.
I give her the money, she shakes her head. "What's wrong?" I ask.
"It is not fair, your friend here gets 6 of loaves and you only get 5? No no... Izzy won't allow of that." The woman said. As handed me another one and gave me six in stead of five. "Your so kind..."
"Izzy? Are you giving people extra loaves than they paid for again..?" A male voice says from behind the cloth 'door'. She shakes her head. "No Isaac, there just getting as much as they paid..." The woman looked stressed and afraid that this so called Isaac, will hurt her for giving more re to people like us. I frowned. "Here," I gave back another loaf and started to walk out.
"Thank you, for your kindness you will be freed of all curses put on you," she said bowing her head and smiled. I smile back and tell amber to come! She came and had a good feeling. 'She's so sweet...' I said to her mentally.
'Agreed'
'A loaf of kindness...'
