Late Saturday morning, (your name) woke up with a groan. She moved her head to the side to see all the kittens still sleeping peacefully at her feet. She smiled, but the smile quickly vanished when she realised her mother was coming to visit. Trying her best not to wake the six sleeping kittens, she pushed back the duvet from her body and stood up. Her phone, which stood next to her bed on a little table, buzzed slightly. 

(your name) picked it up and examined the screen. It had a text from her mother, which read: 'Oggend! Weet jy, kan dit jou wekroep wees. Ek kom weer na jou plek om een ​​so ek sien julle dan. -Ma' (Morning! Knowing you, this might be your wake-up call. I am coming to your place around one so I'll see you then. -Ma).

She replied back quickly: 'Nah, dit is goed. Ek het letterlik wakker twee sekondes voor.' (Nah, it's fine. I literally woke up two seconds before.)

'Ek moet harder probeer het! In elk geval, is een okay vir jou? (I should've tried harder! Anyway, is one okay for you?).

'Ja, ek sien julle dan! Lief vir jou xxx ' (Yeah, I'll see you then! Love you xxx).

'Lief vir jou ook, heuning.' (Love you too, honey.).

And with that, (your name) set her phone back down on the table, stretched and, after hearing a satisfying 'pop', went to her closet to pick out an outfit for the day. She ended up picking (favourite outfit because I'm too lazy to write about it).

 Hearing a soft yawn behind her, (your name) spun around to see Sebastian stretching as he got up. (your name) sat down as softly and quietly as she could onto the bed and started stroking a half-awake Sebastian between his ears, causing him to purr and rub his face into her hand.

Hearing the doorbell ring, (your name) jumped slightly before she paused the TV and stood up from the sofa to answer the door. ("I wonder what that noise was all about," Alois thought aloud.) Opening the door, a middle-age woman with (mum's hair length), (mum's hair colour) and (mum's eye colour) barged her way through the door, and (your name) in a bone-crushing embrace.

"(your name), oh hoe ek jou gemis!" ((your name), oh how I've missed you!) (your name)'s mother yelled, squeezing the slightly trembling girl in her arms.

"Okay, okay! That's enough hugging, Mum! And I thought I told you to speak English when we're at my place?" (mum's name) , (your name)'s mother, let go, and chuckled slightly at the sight of her flustered daughter.

"Sorry, (your name), but it's been so long since the last I've seen you! Look how big you are!"

"You saw two weeks ago, I've hardly grown an inch in that amount of time," (your name) rolled her eyes playfully as her mother continued to giggle, "anyway, come in! Don't you want to see the kittens?" she let her mother into the house, closed the door behind her, and led her to the living room, where she just was. (mum's name) squealed when she saw the cats and ran to hug them all ("Oh, God, she's worse than Elizabeth," Ciel groaned under the weight of (mum's name) overly enthusiastic and affectionate embrace).

(your name) chuckled. "Do you want anything to drink? Tea, coffee, water?" she added.

"Tea please," (your name) nodded and went to get her mother her tea while she got herself a (favourite drink). She came back and gave the teacup to her mother, and sat down next to her.

"Hoekom is die katte so vreemd gekleurde?" (Why are the cats so oddly coloured?) (mum's name) inquired, taking a sip of her tea. 

"English, Mum," (your name) reminded, taking a sip of her drink. ("Yes, please, I can't stand all this Albanian!" Grell cried out.    "It's Afrikaans, actually, Grell," Sebastian corrected.     "Oh, shut up, Bassy.")

"Why are the cats so oddly coloured?" (mum's name) corrected herself.

"I dunno, I just found them like that in their box. And when I tried to wash whatever it is out of their fur, nothing came off," (your name) clearly remembered what happened before she went to bed the previous night. Let's just say that it caused a tornado of claws and a second shower for her.

"They kind of look like the some of the cartoons you have on your wall," she nodded her head in the direction of the Black Butler poster.

(your name) rolled her eyes, "Mum, it's called anime. And yeah, that's why I name these guys after who they look like on there."

"Oh?"

"Yeah! This one is Ciel Phantomhive, that one is Alois Trancy, that's Sebastian Michaelis, Grell Sutcliff, Undertaker, and finally the grumpy-looking one over there is Claude Faustus!" ("How the bloody Hell does she know our SECOND names as well?" Grell choked out.)

"Hmm, well, I think it's best I be going, I left your little (brother/sister) with your father, and I want to get back before the chaos starts," she gave (your name) a kiss on the cheek, put her cup down, and left with (your name), who was seeing her off at the front door.

"This is getting far too troublesome for my liking, Sebastian. As much as I don't like saying this, I miss the other servants. Incompetent as they are, it still isn't quite the same without them," Ciel sighed.

Sebastian nodded, "I agree, My Lord, " he could just imagine all the destruction those three caused in their frantic searching for him and Ciel. Tanaka will be just fine, Sebastian thought, smiling slightly to himself.
