As Nyx closed her eyes, she seemed to have heard a kitten’s meow, which was so subtle that she rubbed her ears, thinking she was hearing voices, and then went back to sleep.

Yet, the meow continued. Finally, she sat up, walked to the window, opened it, and looked out–Cotton Candy was sitting on the windowsill, looking at her eagerly.

He meowed again, and Nyx’s expression changed drastically: She was so glad that she wasn’t asleep and came to take a look because she was worried, or the silly little kitten would have been left out all night.

It wasn’t winter, and the weather was warm enough. Still, leaving Cotton Candy here alone all right would break her heart. She reached out and took him inside at once.

He snuggled up to her, not struggling at all. He was too docile to be a stray cat, and she figured he was probably once a pet cat, which was why he was so clingy.

Given how smart he was, he didn’t run away from his home; instead, he was abandoned. Feeling sorry for him, she stroked the clump of dark hair on his forehead and asked him again, “Wanna stay with me?”

She really wanted to keep him as her pet. In fact, she had always wanted to raise a pet, but under her family’s control since childhood, she couldn’t even manage to live on her own, let alone have a pet.

Those were memories to forget; no matter what, her life was perfect now, and she could finally have a pet. She’d treat him very well.

Cotton Candy seemed to sense her mixed emotions. He looked up at her sad face and sensibly rubbed her profile, meowing to comfort her.

Soon, she was in a better mood and smiled while tapping his nose, “You can’t talk; I’ll take your response as a yes then. From now on, you’ll be mine. How about a bath? Then I’ll fix you something to eat.”

She happily went to the bathroom at a brisk pace with him in her arms, thinking that she should later check whether she needed to vaccinate and apply for a pet license on this planet.

It was common knowledge that cats hated water, and every cat owner had an uphill battle bathing their cat. Bracing herself, she carefully put him into the basin with warm water, prepared to get wet in the next second.

However, he was so well–behaved and even raised his face so that she could rub and clean him more easily. When she rinsed him, he didn’t struggle and faced the water fearlessly instead.
