The rest of the day went according to plan; the new comers got to their rooms, put their stuff away, got a tour of the place and then sat down for dinner as Mr. Herriman made the announcements and stated some house rules.
Each new Imaginary friend brought up curiosity to the residents of fosters as to whom where their former kids, what they did special for them and why.
Mac and Bloo were talking to an imaginary friend that looked kind of like Macs older brother, though with not so many zits, not so dumb and way nicer. Coco was helping Frankie with the dessert as Eduardo was showing the Imaginary kids the back yard. Wilt on the other hand, was looking for the mysterious cat girl that had entered earlier. Seeing that she had disappeared the minute he walked into the mansion and now was nowhere in the dinning room. His interest was peaked when excused himself from the table to see if he could find her.
Hallway after Hallway, Wilt searched everywhere and still found no sign of her. He was about to give up, when he heard a soft humming coming from a distant room from a near by hallway. He followed the sound till he found that it was coming from the laundry room. He peeked in to see the cat person putting in a few loads of clothes into a washer and folding the clothes that she took out from the dryer, no doubt she probably wanted to have something to do to keep her occupied.
Despite the beautiful humming music, she still looked awfully sad, which in a way made him sad too, But being as the cheerful and helpful imaginary friend that he was, he walked in as quietly as he could only to bring the cat girls eyes looking at him when catching the sound of his squeaky sneakers hitting the tiled floor.
He looked into her eyes, becoming oddly stiff and nervous, as if a mouse being stalked by a cat in a dark room, but shook it off as he said with his best smile putting out his hand for a shake, "Hi there...my name is Wilt...what's yours?"
The Cat girl looked at him giving a small but nice smile, reaching out and shaking his hand, "My name is Sarah…its nice to meet you Wilt."
Wilt was stunned, he couldn't help but feel all nervous with cold sweat from the very sound of her voice, then snapped back when he felt her slender hand shake his in greeting.
Sarah let go of his to continued on with her chores of washing the clothes. It was her first time and she started doing chores as if she lived there forever.
"Um...if you don't mind me asking...why are you washing clothes? Don't you want to relax for a while? I mean it is your first day and I don't want you to overwork yourself."
"I thank you for your concern for my well being, but I am fine, I just wanted to get this load done that way I wouldn't have to worry about it later."
"Oh… well...that makes prefect sense...I guess I will see you around then?"
She looked at him with a nod her smile no longer visible on her face as she continued concentrating on her laundry.
Wilt rubbed the back his short neck, walking out of the laundry room, thinking that it was probably best to leave her alone for now.
