Shota made it back to his house and went in. "So who are you two supposed to be?" He asked them. "Consider us to be protectors of her. We were dropped off with her when her parents didn't want her anymore. We've been keeping an eye on her ever since" Murkrow answered. He had landed on the couch while Pichu sat on the floor. "How long would that be?" Shota asked. Shota looked down at her only to find her to be asleep. "3 months to be exact" Pichu spoke. "So what you're saying is that she's saying she's 3 months now?" Shota asked again.
"Yeah," Murkrow said. "When was the last time she ate?" Shota questioned. "This morning" Murkrow said. Shota didn't respond after that but instead started to think of what he was going to do with the baby. If he kept her, it would make his life even difficult. If he dropped her off at the orphanage, he would probably never see her again. 'Why should I care? She's not even mine' He thought. He decided that he would give her a bath before making a decision. After he was finished with that, Shota put one of his shirts on her. This woke her back up from her short nap. When she did, she smiled up at Shota and tried to grab his hair. He let her since it seemed to make her happy. That was until he heard a growl come from her. "You're hungry, aren't you?" He asked her. He knew better than to think that a baby could understand what he was saying. To his surprise, she nodded and gurgled at him. Shota carried her back into the kitchen. "Give her grapes, she likes those a lot," Murkrow announced.
He was on the counter at this point, just waiting to come back in. "How long have you been sitting there?" Shota asked. "Not too long actually," Murkrow replied. Shota got a couple grapes and gave it to her. She took them from him but wanted to give one to Murkrow. He didn't want it but since it was coming from her, he took it from her. "So long have you guys been in that alleyway?" Shota asked. "For 2 days, we kept moving around," Pichu said. After a while, she fell asleep in Shota's arms again. Shota took her back to his room and laid down with her on his chest. "This is just a warning for the future, be careful how you hold her. Her bones aren't that strong like they should be but that's if you're going to keep her" Murkrow announced. Shota nodded to acknowledge him. "Do you know anything else about her?" Shota asked him. Murkrow was sitting on the window sill at this point. "I'll only say if you're going to adopt her. I don't want to tell you, just for you to give her up" Murkrow told him. Shota remained quiet as she continued to sleep on his chest. Shota went to sleep shortly after. Murkrow watched over them and waited till morning.
"I don't care who your family is or how you got this far, I'll always love you for who you are"
