"Meow."
Hime is meowing in a cat pose.
When I saw it, my breath stopped.
(So, so cute...!)
It's cute, but it suits you well.
I see. Hime certainly does look like a cat...no, a kitten.
At first, he was very wary and watched us for a while.
However, once they become attached to you, they will always stay close to you. They also get lonely when you are far away, just like a kitten.
Her expression didn't change much, but when I started doing something else, thinking she wasn't interested in me, she came rubbing up against me as if wanting my attention... I was reminded of Hime.
"Meow... It's Kitty. How are you?"
I wonder if he's kidding.
As usual, her expression didn't change much. She kept her hands together like a cat with a straight face, then leaned in closer. She sat on my lap as I sat in the chair, and this time she rubbed her cheek against my chest.
"Youhei, do you want to keep one? Meow."
Ah, so cunning...!
But she's so cute. At times like this, I realize that I'm a boy too... Her cute behavior pierced my heart.
"--I'll keep it! Woof!"
It was probably because Hime was just too cute.
Unable to resist, the Shiba Inu dog tried to pet Hime. Oh, I was wrong. It was not the Shiba Inu dog, but Hisamori-san.
"No Hisamori-san. I prefer Youhei-kun. Meow."
"Your cold attitude is also lovely... Then please keep me! Woof"
"I would like to keep one...Yohei, is that okay?"
...yeah???
I was confused and didn't know what they were talking about.
Let's get this straight. First, Hime the kitten is trying to become my pet, and then Hisamori the Shiba Inu becomes my pet... so in other words, my pet is asking for permission to keep a pet.
"Please forgive me, I'll take good care of you. Meow."
"Please! Ozora-senpai, it's okay to let him roam free outside. Woof!"
...Also, that forced ending is a big source of confusion.
It's hard to understand, or maybe it's just that she's too cute for my taste. Oh, of course I'm not talking about Hisamori-san, I'm talking about Hime. Hisamori-san is also attractive, but I prefer someone a little more calm--but that's aside.
"H-Hime is a dear friend, so... I guess being a pet isn't enough."
First of all, I need to get her to stop turning into a kitten.
She was so cute that it was difficult to continue the conversation, so I tried to stop her somehow.
"So, you're lovers?! Isn't this a serious age gap romance?... This is a scoop! Isn't this a major incident that would be a shame to write about in an article?! It's okay, I'll keep it a secret to myself, so please feel free to pursue your love life! Age doesn't matter, as long as there's love!!"
I was trying to calm Hime down, but for some reason, Hisamori went off the rails.
...The conversation has been going in a strange direction ever since this person arrived. I feel like Hisamori-san is quite a crazy person.
There's no doubt that she's a good girl. Even now, when she found a scoop, she said she'd keep it a secret and not make it public. If you think that now you can relax and become a couple with Hime... then you should realize that this isn't the kind of relationship you have in the first place.
"A dear friend... hehe."
And Hime became soft and squishy.
He probably didn't hear what Hisamori said. He seemed very happy when I called him his precious friend.
Anyway, it seems like the kitten transformation has been fixed for now, so that's good.
Now I don't have to worry anymore.
