CHAPTER V

"WHERE AM I? WHAT IS THIS PLACE? WWHAT ARE YOU?" These questions tumbled out of my mouth before I can even stop myself. Ugh! But as much as I hated it, I still need to get some information as to my whereabouts.

"Well, I saw you passed out on the field over there," he pointed on a field not too farther away. "And I guess you won't be happy sleeping directly under the sun so… I carried you here," he explained jubilantly.

I waited for him to continue but then he just smiled and again, moves his head to the side, his ears moving up and down, now and then. It makes me… uncomfortable, makes me, want to touch it.

But no! I hate cats, okay! I would never touch a cat! Ever! But… his ears… his tail… he's so cute like---

"Hey! Are you okay?" his voice brought me back to my senses and I then noticed that he's standing too close to me, feeling my forehead with his hand.

His hand! A human Hand! On impulse, I peeled his hand away and held it in front of me. I peered at it deeply until I heard him chuckled above.

Okay… I haven't really noticed it earlier, but, he rally is towering over me! I guess 10cm or more! Geez! Now it's getting worse to be with him. I immediately backed away from him.

"Okay, okay. I know you've been waiting for me to say this," better get over with this fast. I'm not really good in saying these words. "Th-thank you for carrying me---"

"Don't mention it," he laughed, again, as he walked towards me and took a strand of my hair and started playing with it. Geez! That action really does remind me of a cat!

"Anyway! Where's the nearest town?" A asked as I, again, took a few steps away from him.

"I can take you there," he simply said as he took hold of my hand and lead me towards the direction to the field. "I can even carry you again if you want me to."

I took my hand away from his hold and said, "Geez! I can walk by myself! I don't need, and want, mind you, for you to stay with me any longer! So tell me where the town is!"

He just chuckled and the next thing I knew, I was on his arms.

"Let me go, you jerk!" I started to struggle, shout, and calling him names. "Let me down!"

"Geez!" he grinned. Wah! He even has guts to imitate me! "You're too loud for a kid like you."

"Kid?! I. Am. Not. A. Kid!" Okay, by this time, I'm already shouting and struggling with all my might. But he still would not let me go.

And this situation continues until we arrive in town.
