He nodded and sat up on a chair, his feet not quite coming to the ground, watching her leave. She sat down on the bed after pulling some new blankets down from the hope chest at the foot of the bed laying them across. He smiled and leaned back, munching happily on a third cookie. He was where he liked to be, alone. The little girl peaked out from the corner of the dinning room door.
Smiles at her gently, pulling a cookie off the table for her. "You want one?"
She nodded lightly walking over to him taking the cookie. "Thank you." She spoke softly as she looked to him biting down on the chocolate chip cookie.
He smiled and drank a little more of the milk. Giving a little smile he took another bite out of the cookie. "What's your name?"
"Saig... You have the same name as my daddy..."
He blinked and nodded. "Saig, that's a nice name." He purposely avoided the latter, because he didn't have the answer to it.
She smiled kindly. "Thank you my daddy gave me my name because it was the only thing he could give me."
"What do you mean?" He asked, re-adjusting himself in his seat.
"My mommy had me in her last year of high school because she loved my daddy, but it wasn't enough to keep the bad guy from taking daddy away."
He frowned realizing what she meant. "I'm sorry, it's the curse of the cat."
"My mommy said I was lucky though that I survived she said if Akito-sama would have known then he would have tried anything to make sure I wouldn't live."
He frowned deeper and then took another bite out of the cookie. "Akito-sama doesn't like me either."
"... I'm a Sohma, but Akito-sama won't admit it."
"I am too, but he doesn't think I'm worth it."
"... He doesn't think the cat can be loved... If that's true what am I?"
"I know too well that he doesn't think I can be." She looked down sadly.
He smiled and put a hand on her shoulder. "But, I think it's not true."
She nodded lightly. "... Yuki I call him daddy too he takes care of me like his daughter its fun playing with him."
He gave a little nod. "Yuki-kun, he's alright I guess."
"... That's right cat's aren't fond of the rat..." She looked up smiling. "But Daddy two is nice I promise mommy said that he promised daddy one that he would protect me from any harm along with mommy." She was smiling much like Tohru would.
He nodded and gave her a smile as well. "That's good, I'm glad he said that... It's not that I'm not fond of him… I kind of like him, I mostly hate myself."
"Why because that's what they told you?" She looked to him curiously now her head tilting to the side.
"No, that's what I think."
"I don't think so." She smiled petting his head.
He blinked and looked down to her and shrugged. "I hate being the cat."
"But the cat is loved."
"By who?"
"Yuki and my mommy." She smiled. "And me."
He gave a little shrug. "Yeah, you love... the other cat, not me." She looked down sadly before running off hearing her mom come down the steps.
