"Just show me quickly and I can figure the rest out." He meowed, and then with a cat-like curiosity, he followed her to the bathroom and she showed him how to use the basics before running out the door. "I believe it's no trouble at all. I see humans do it on t.v sometimes. I used to watch shows in those stores, but since I'm not allowed in, there's no sound." He explains.

"See you." He murmured as he sees her off and he finds himself alone in her home. He thought of leaving himself, but then realized he doesn't remember where he is, and doesn't have the keys to come back in, and that means the trouble of finding food for the day. So out of fear of hunger, he stayed put and sat on the couch for hours.

When she returns later that evening, everything is still one piece. The bathroom is a bit of a mess with some bottles and soaps misplaced, and maybe he forgotten to clear the cat hair near the drain, but otherwise nothing too messy.

He was curling on the couch with his eyes fixed on the t.v and the story of the drama show being played out. When he heard the door open and heard the sound of her feet, he came over to her and meowed, his tail swaying side to side.

"You've been gone for too long. You came back." By feline instinct he wants to rub his head on her shoulder, but didn't do so as their bond isn't close yet, but he leans slightly on her shoulder. "Is there anything to eat? I didn't touch anything in the fridge until you come back."

She smiles and feels a little bit guilty for leaving so quickly. "Okay, I'm... Sorry. I will try and work as quickly as I can so I can come home quicker."

It was a long day as not only did they have to redo photo shoots but also, had to take care of a last minute client. She hurried home as not only was it evening but also she had a new pet.

Emerald eyes blink at his words and how he came to her to lean against her, before letting out a soft chuckle.

"Sorry, things at work kept going wrong but we got it taken care of." She lifts a hand to pet his hair. "There should be food in the fridge. But how do you feel about getting delivery?"

She has yet to see the mess in the bathroom.

"Mm. Glad you're back home." He meowed, lightly nuzzles on her shoulder. His tail swishing side to side, with his feline stare, with anticipation that food is coming soon, as his stomach gnaws with hunger. It's a familiar feeling of hunger he was used to.

"I don't know how delivery works. But if it's fish or chicken, I'll eat." Meaning, Leanne can order if she wants since the cat doesn't know how to operate a phone, much less read and knows numbers.

Oh! Oh no, he was being cute and melting her heart a little. That stare causes her to giggle a little and she couldnt help but to kiss the tip of his nose.

"I will teach you when I can but let's get some sushi, how does that sound?" A small ruffle as she pulls out her phone to open a delivery app. "Let me order double for you so that you will have something to eat tomorrow."

And he won't have to go through hunger again. A few more moments passed as she completes the order and ding! The notification pops up, announcing how long it will take for it to be delievered.

"We have some time to wait until it gets here. Do you want a small snack to hold you over until it arrives?"

His nose gives a twitch and felt an instant twitch. "Yes, you expect that from me. I'll learn." He watches her how to use a phone to contact the shop for delivery. It seems easy to do, but then again human can do many things beyond his comprehension.

"Sushi is fresh fish, right?" He knows that much. "That sounds wonderful. Yes, I would like a snack if that's all right."

She blinks before giving him a gently hip bump. "I can also take care of it, I am not gonna expect things from you. Yet at least. Just rest and find a spot somewhere here to claim as yours." She will have to show him in more details and do practice deliveries to help him learn it better.

"Yes, it is. I figured that you would want it." Hair ruffle before heading to the kitchen. She opens the fridge and goes to look through to see what would be a good snack. "Are you able to eat cheese? I have some Brie that I can heat up on crackers."

Upon feline instinct, he gently pressed his body against her with a playful curl of his tail and he meows. This is a new feeling for him, to show and express his affection toward to another human. It's as if he's ready to settle down with a home with her.

He sniffs at the food inside the bag, but he's obedient and learn to wait. "Brie cheese and crackers sound excellent." He meowed.

That body press with the meow. That small amount of affection caused a switch of release of sheer joy, which causes her to giggle with sheer joy. So much joy and heart fluttering towards him at the moment.

"Give me a moment and I will prepare a few crackers!" She was still high on happiness because of the earlier display of affection. Leanne goes to cut off a few slices of cheese to put in the microwave to heat them up a little. Once that was done, she carefully places the cheese slices on each cracker.

"They are a little warn so be careful when eating them."

He sat on the sofa and waited as she prepares the appetizers. His stomach is quite famished and gnaws at him. He watches how she works the machine the same way most feline would watch.

"I waited all day for you. How is your work day? I know very little of humans and their need to work." Much less how phones and money works.

She notices him watching her and makes a mental note to teach him how to use it, even if just to feed himself. She places the plate of food down infront of him, smiling.

"It was busy but fun. Had to do a lot of reshoots." A small blush as she realizes that he might not know what she does. "I am a model. Basically people take my pictures wearing either their clothes or products so that they can sell it to others."

A hand reaches over to start petting him. "Humans need to make money so that we can live in a place like this."

He bends his neck over so she could pet him properly and reach between the ears. From the plate, he munches on the crackers and cheese, and the taste goes well together. Crumbs caught on his whiskers which he brushes away. For a stray cat, he still has to work on his eating manners. It fills his stomach, but he's still hungry and waits for the food to be delivered.

He nods, understanding. "Taking pictures? Sounds interesting. What's the word call? I forget." A few moments. "Photos?" No, not the right word. It's on the tip of his mind. "Photography." Yes, that's the one.

"Yes, I see. I don't think I could make enough playing music since I tend to run out of money for food by the end of the day."

Eventually the door rings and the delivery man arrived with their order waiting outside her door so he could take his signature to confirm delivery.

A small smile as he bends his head to make it easier for her to pet and scratch his head. A small giggle at the sight of his manners and she couldnt help but to nuzzle him a little.

"Yes, photography! I model clothes for various stores and businesses. It's only because I have the face and body type they are looking for." She blushes a little, feeling a little embarrassed. "And sometimes you may have seen me in a few magazines as well." So so embarrassing.

She goes to shake her head. "I think your music can bring in enough money. We will just need to think of the right venue for you." So don't be discourage. "We can try YouTube as there are many pet videos."

But she was content right now with petting him like this until the doorbell rings. She quickly moves to answer and give her signature as well as a tip, quickly closing the door to deny anything beyond the quick transaction.

"Food is here! Come and eat while it is fresh. I got us some sushi and sashimi." As well as other dishes to make sure that he won't be hungry the next day.

He ate all the cheese and crackers cleanly from the plate. It will tide him over until dinner is ready. He sat still, allow her to relax next to him and pet him.

"That sound exciting, taking pictures. Its something I want to try and learn. I see humans take pictures from their cameras and phones. I think someone took a photo of me on their phone once when I lived in that alley, but they never spoke to me and left." He said, "I'm really confused why they take a picture of me." But he figured because he's a stray cat.

Well, first he needed a better-quality violin. While his violin is fine and it works, it's a low-grade quality that creaks sometimes and couldn't play the right notes even when he finetunes it. "I heard of videos but never youtube. What is that? Do you think it could work?"

But then he perks up at her announcement that food has arrived. He felt so hungry at the thought of eating fish. He hasn't eaten fish in a long time. "That sound good." Once she gone to fetch it, he took his seat in the dining room, getting ready to eat.

He was being so cute, or perhaps it was the new bias now that she adopted them. She continues to pet him, on cloud nine.

"Hmmm perhaps once you get checked out by a vet and take an appointment at a groomers, I can take you to work with me so you can see how they do it." She offers and gives him something to look forward to. She giggles and kisses the top of his head. "Well, it's because you are so cute and handsome!"

A higher quality violin... That is something she will need to get for him. "YouTube is a website where people from around the world watch videos. People upload videos on there and if people like you enough, you can make money. It never hurts to try if it's something you want to do."

Then fish is here and Leanne giggles at the sight of him being excited about eating fish. She brings the bags to the table and goes to set out all the dishes on the table but one. That one goes into the fridge.

"Eat slowly, we don't want you to choke on food. We have some fun foods as well."

She points to the two orders of soft shell crab, yaki soba and a container of seafood upon.

"And I already put a portion of fish into the fridge for you to eat tomorrow so you won't be hungry."

A small grin. "Really? Do you think that's allowed? I hope I don't steal most of the spotlight if they find me a perfect subject. It's not really my dream to become a model, but rather playing music in a well-established concert. But otherwise, if you want to take me to the pet and get me cleaned up, I'll shall go."

With a nod, "I'll try. I don't have to make videos and use cameras. You might have to show me how."

He tries to help by setting up for dinner. He learned quickly what the utilities are for. "Of course. Those smell good."

Very delicately, using a fork and spoon, he slowly dig in, eating slowly and savoring each bite. To him, this is a rich taste. "It's really good."

"Of course, if anything, it could get you practice. Then it would be up to you if you wished to continue or not. I don't know if I can grant you that dream but... I can try to help you where and when I can."

She reaches over to tap on his nose. "And yes, we will need to take you to the vets and groomers. Just to make sure that there is nothing wrong with you."

A wink as he helps set the table. "It should be easy to teach you. Especially with your dream, making videos may be a right step towards it."

A small amount of pride goes through her as he seems to enjoy the food. "I am glad. Consider this as a celebration dinner." A small pause. "The celebration of you willing to be adopted by me."

"All right." He said. He's not terribly fond of anything that reminds him of a hospital. He never been to one other, not even the free, city sponsored clinics at the kennels.

"I plan to practice more, but I find my old violin is becoming off-key. Like no matter how much I wind it up, the strings can't match what I hear on the radio." He sighed as he notices his violin's string quality is declining and make scratchy notes. He won't admit to her that he wanted a new violin and he's thinking up ways to make money and save up on his own.

He sniffles and wiggles his nose in response. In his cat form, he would have smoothen out his whiskers as a reflex.

He nods to that. "It will take a while to get used to. Having a nice warm place to live and not worry about when it will rain or snow."

She was picking up a little on his hesitation about going to the vet and groomers and frowns a little. "If you behave and do a good job at them, I will take you to a nice sushi restaurant."

The violin, it was on its last legs and she frowns a little before smiling softly. "We will have to see what we can do. It is still beautiful though, your violin."

And stop being so cute! She won't be able to handle it!

"Take your time to get used to it." She then stretches a little before taking a couple of bites. "I will have to look for a bigger place to live. So you won't feel so cramped by the lack of space." And a bright smile. "And also to put all the clothes you will be getting away."

With a soft chuckle, "All right, you win. I never thought being a pet means I can eat fish on a daily basis. I wouldn't mind a little variety for my palate like chicken and turkey."

He looks at his violin pitifully, "It might have seen better days, but I think the strings are too worn and scratchy and that's why it was thrown away. Now if it's a good violin, I'm sure it could move and inspire people."

With a small shake of his head as he takes a few hearty bites. "You don't have too. This is fine. As long it isn't raining and snowing, at least I'm not cold or wet."

She beams and nods her head. "Of course. I will do my best to give you all the different types of meat."

The sight of the violin causes her to frown. "It may take me a bit but I can get you a new one. Once I have the money I will take you to the music shop to get a new one of your choice."

Awwww, he is sweet. She reaches over to pet his hair again. "I will still look but I won't be in a rush. But wouldn't you like your own room? A room to call your own?"

"That's...that's wonderful really." He said in wonderment. "Meat of any kind is hard to come by. Usually I go by with bread, biscuits, and water and if I'm lucky cheese and coffee and that was it." He earned it through his music.

He looked at his violin and at her, and he sounds hopeful. "If you could manage, I'll make it up to you and repay you somehow. It's no small thing. This violin, I found by pure luck even if it's semi-broken."

With the pets, he can't help but to purr just a little. "Ah." He won't admit a small touch is wonderful. "You're too kind. Even if it's small space like a closet, that would be grand my dear."

She beams at him in his reaction to learning that he will have different types of meat. "Oh my~ then I guess you are going to be spoiled rotten by the time I am done with you." A small playful tease. "Just don't let yourself get too spoiled."

But then he brings the attention back to his violin and slowly nods her head. "Allowing me to adopt you is payment enough. It will take me a while before I can afford the one for you."

The purrs, he was being so cute! "No, not for my cat... I would love to give you your own space. Hnnn, but for now, once I take you to the vet and groomers, we can at least share my bed."

"I think being with you is a luxury that I can't never repay." He mewed. Suddenly, he felt exhausted from living his life on the streets and then over a course of a few days, his heart is filled with hope that he will be an adopted pet.

It's not that he has any allegiance to the proud clans on the streets that desire no human company and rather fight for territory and scraps of good. He's a lone stray cat with depressing prospects of survival and even the worst fate, death.

Yet a part of him clinged on. He has dreams. He hungers for the finer things in life. To make music. To be able to read. To understand stories in cinema. To understand humans and what they do. The past of being an orphaned cat haunts him when he has no memories of his brothers and sisters or his parents. A mixed breed of no lineage or pedigree.

Yet here's a human, understanding, sweet, kind, and wanted him.

"I wouldn't mind sharing your bed." He murmured, thinking innocently she meant snuggling and cuddling in a warm big bed meant for humans. "If you really do desire to have me, then I'm yours."

He has nothing, but he figured being a cat, he's naturally inclined to affection, but up until now he shared with no one. On the streets, he usually ignored the nameless females or males in heat, as they're always taken freely by another, and he didn't care for them nor didn't want to breed unwanted offspring no one wanted like himself.

A quick kiss to her hand and a weak, insecure purr as he rubs his face on her hands and slender fingers since he has no idea how to express affection.

A small smile briefly appears before it becomes a more warmer smile. "Just be happy is a way for you to repay me."

It was a great gift this stray cat was giving her, especially one who was such a proud stray. She has no idea what his life was like before they came into each other lives but she has already made the choice to do what she can to make it better.

She blinks when he mentions sharing her bed and giggles. "Then we must give you a shower to get you all nice and clean beforehand. Then we can share my bed." She did mean it in a innocent manner but yet, she is a little aware of what it means for a male and female to share a bed. "I do desire you."

Her smile grows warmer as he kisses her hand and that purr. Okay, she needs to help him get it to be more secure. "I knew it, you are quite cute. You are doing good."

Once dinner was done, she leans over to give him a kiss on the top of his head. "Follow me and I will show you how to use the shower."

"Oh yes shower. I figured that out much. I was never a fan of water, but it's matter of getting used to hot or cold when the water is turned on." It crosses his mind that he is starting to look a little better in appearance, just a little underweight with his ribs showing from lack of food.

He got up and follows her, "I figured it out, but perhaps I need a little help with my tail. It's a part of me that is hard to reach."
