A.N. The title, in Chinese, means 'love between a cat and bat'. Had to look up the 'love' part.
It was now years later, Dongwa and Sagwa were both adults. Sheegwa was now a teenager. Not much had changed in their personalities, but there were subtle differences. Dongwa was now a lot more mature, and only showed his spunky, mischievous side when he played with his alley cat friends. Otherwise he was a lot more respectful and had stopped teasing his younger sisters. Also, he had mastered Tai-Chi, and his parents decided that he didn't have to become a scribe because of that. For one thing he could use Tai-Chi to protect his sisters. Sheegwa was still her sweet playful self, but had grown more confident. Especially in calligraphy, which she had improved in greatly ever since her tail grew out. Sagwa was the one who had changed the least. The only difference was that she was more likely to think out her actions whenever she went on an adventure, resulting in her getting into trouble less often.
Their grandparents had passed on due to old age, but the rest of their family was still alive. Fu-Fu still visited the palace, especially Sagwa. The two had always been inseparable and they still were. The Foolish Magistrate, Tai-Tai, and their daughters were pretty much the same apart from being older. Ba-Do was still very close to Sagwa, and had found more about Fu-Fu through that.
It happened one day when the daughters had a free day from their lessons. Luk-Do and Huang-Do immediately wanted to shop in the village, but Ba-Do hadn't been able to play with Sagwa for a while due to their respective duties and decided to do that instead. When she neared the garden looking for Sagwa she saw her playing with Fu-Fu.
"Hello." Ba-Do smiled, recognizing the bat.
Fu-Fu, startled, flew into a nearby tree.
"It's okay, I won't hurt you." Ba-Do drew closer. "Say I recognize you, you're that bat mom tried to keep in a cage." She then looked at Sagwa. "This explains why you were in the palace in the first place, you're a friend of Sagwa's."
Fu-Fu nodded, flying closer since he knew that Ba-Do favored Sagwa and so wouldn't capture him or anything for her sake.
"Wow, you're one lucky cat." Ba-Do smiled to Sagwa.
Sagwa meowed in agreement.
"Well, I came out to play with you, but I can play with both you and your bat friend if you want me too."
Sagwa and Fu-Fu did. They ended up having a fun time and Ba-Do and Fu-Fu became close friends.
The rest of the family found out too, and welcomed Fu-Fu as an unofficial member of the palace. Sagwa eventually wrote Fu-Fu's name on a scroll so that the humans could know it. Fu-Fu started hanging out with Sagwa and her siblings more often than he hung out with his colony.
