Page 320 of Lilah
How the fuck do you even pick up these things?
Bear shows up by my side and sniffs the air curiously.
"I don't like it either, Bear," I grumble to him. Eventually, I just pick the thing up. It may be small now, but this thing is supposed to get pretty damn big.
I found a little cheat to getting the cat.
I got the cat most doggish that there is. A Maine Coon. It's gonna get big. It's kinda doggish. It's as best as I could get.
I wasn't getting a damn pussy ass cat. It's gonna be the manliest cat and I hope I've succeeded.
I hate to admit the baby is a little cute. And the thing better like me too. I've got two months before Lilah gets out of school for summer, if it hates me, I'm sneaking it into her dorm and not dealing with it.
"This thing isn't a toy, Bear," I explain to him. He eats meals three times as big as this thing.
"And you can't eat it or momma will be very upset with you," I tell him sternly before giving his side a good pat.
I mosy my way back into the bedroom where I find that Lilah is in the bathroom. I sit on the bed with my back to the door and I look at the thing. It's a furry little shit but it is cute, I'll give it that.
Is it a boy or a girl? Shit, I can't remember.
The door suddenly opens. I stand up and start walking to her. She doesn't notice the little thing until I'm right in front of her.
And when she does. She falls to the ground, crying.
I sigh, shaking my head. I kneel down to the ground with her and sit the thing in her lap. She picks it up and holds it like it's pure gold.
"Oh my goodness!" she sniffs, "It's the cutest thing in the world!"
"Mhm."
"Do we get to keep it?" she looks at me, hope filling her eyes. I give her a smile.
"Of course," I nod. With the cat in hand, she crawls onto my lap kissing every inch of my face.
Yeah getting that thing was definitely fucking worth it.
"Boy or girl?"
"I don't fuckin' know," I shrug.
An hour of googling later, it's a girl.
She fucking named it Princess Eleonora Caroline Kingston.
Callie for short. Not sure where she got Callie from but okay.
She already loves the damn cat more than me.

Hey, y'all! I hope y'all aren't too bored in the quarantine. I know I am. I hope you all stay safe and healthy! Just recently there has been a case of the virus found in my town so I'm taking this a little more seriously. (I live in a really really small town.)
Anyway, I hope y'all enjoyed this one!
