-Nothing dear - replied Akira, now sniffing in my arms we were placing the shopping bags over the table, when I felt something warm going down my leg, when I looked down there was blood!
-Hold on a moment I said to Akira, gently parting her from my embrace to look in her eyes are you telling me that you weren t attacked or got hurt, and that this just started? Without you cutting yourself or something like that?
-Yeah - she replied while nodding and drying the tears with the back of her paws as not to dirty her face in blood.
-Just a moment - I thought for some moments when I thinking I figured what was going on Akira-chan, let s go to Enmie and check what is going on?
-A Alright - she replied and silently followed me.
Moments later, thanks to Dusk s hint who we found on our way to Enmie, we met her on the back yard talking enthusiastically with Kikuri, that was back from the visit to her siblings home, together with Saori and Momiji, upon seeing me she smiled brightly and with a little more enthusiasm that earlier; I smiled back and I hugged her lightly, then I faced Enmie to proceed with the motive of us coming here:
-Enmie I would ask for something, we need to do a check up on this little one, apparently Akira-chan has reached that age I said pointing to her paws could you check for us please if it is just that or something that really might need a little bit more attention?
-That age? asked Akira apparently without understanding it too well.
-Oh! Let s check that said Enmie while she kneed in front of Akira when this started?
-A little bit ago, ten minutes before I came back from the shopping replied Akira visibly calmer.
-Before it began bleeding did you hurt yourself, fell down or something of the sort? Did you feel something before that? Any symptom? asked Enmie looking deep into Akira s eyes while having her paws over the belly.
-I had cramps, I little pain, and I was irritated by small things she replied after some moments but I didn t hurt myself of fell down ask Dawn-neechan! She knows I behaved!
-Yes, that is certain Akira-chan replied Enmie, petting the nekomimi head well Richard, I think you are right, I didn t feel anything wrong going on with her aside nature following her natural path it appears that our little kitten here just became a little lady!
-L Little lady? asked a completely confused Akira.
-Yes, I will explain everything to you Akira-chan she replied standing up and taking her by the paw, taking her away we will take a bath and I shall teach you everything about this occurrence that is completely normal, do you want to be my student?
-Yes! replied Akira energetically, while she was guided by Enmie.
-Richard I shall take care of Akira, leave it to me! she replied smiling, saying in sequence we shall talk later about our subject.
-Agreed I said waving to her and then, I looked to the trio beside me and greeted them welcome back! How was the trip?
-It was very good! commented Saori Kikuri really had a great time seeing the little ones again!
-Yui-chan was so sad pondered Momiji she wouldn t play around or anything else with the others -I already told you Momiji replied then Kikuri that she is just afraid that she might do something wrong and you get angry at her again and never to come back as you promised -Well, damn - sighted Momiji I didn t want her to be that traumatized -Let it be give it time and it will go away comforted him Saori what about we take a shower? Because even being a cool, we sweated a lot playing with the kids -Oh alright replied Momiji Richard can we take our leave?
-Surely, at easy I replied him, as he was already directing himself to inside the house what about you my kitty? How you doing?
-Much better now sweetie! she replied with an enthusiastic voice it was so good spending time with my little brothers and sisters! I will never forget the moments I lived today incredible how we value more things when we almost lose them don t you think?
-Yes - I replied looking at the ground, as Kikuri accidentally said something that made me hurt inside you are completely right my kitty
We spent the end of the afternoon and beginning of the night together, just with me holding her paws on my hand, we talked very little, just enjoying each other s presence, the fact of her being stuck to a wheelchair really bothered me even though Enmie said she wouldn t stay on it for long that disturbed me a lot, that was one of the motives as I wasn t at ease being at her side I took her to dinner and during the supper, Akira seemed much more at peace and happy, when I finished I called Enmie and we went to talk on her bedroom, when we were alone, she said:
-Richard, it was good that you came I needed to talk to you about that woman that you hired to work for us -Enma? I asked.
-Yes, that one Richard is it of extreme importance that she needs to be around us? Isn t there any other options?
-Unfortunately, at this point of the game, no Enmie there isn t, and I shall explain you why.
Then I began explaining to Enmie everything that was going on in detail, what she heard completely without saying anything, when I finished she pondered about it some moments and then said:
-Well, analyzing by this point of view, it is hard having another option she added while scratching her check.
-Would you mind if I asked the intriguing motive of that worry? I asked really curious about that.
-It is just that when I touched her I was shocked, not an electrical one of course as you can already guess - she replied while lowering her eyes I felt a really strong negative energy in her -Hatred a lot of hatred normally people like that are evil and I tend to automatically avoid them however I also noticed that that feeling didn t come from a twisted and malevolent soul it was something more deep and complex that is why I granted her the benefit of doubt and greeted her again, otherwise I wouldn t have done it not to mention all that sexual aura that surrounded her by all sides -I comprehend perfectly Enmie I replied taking her right paw on my hands and looking her on the eyes thanks for the worry, but I would be really weird that if, considering the way she lives, not having those negative feelings unfortunately as you know her services are extremely needed.
-I understand completely however watch out she said while I headed to the exit those who sleep with dogs, wake up with fleas.
I left the usagimimi s bedroom and headed to my own while meditating on the words that had just being said to me; I knew Enma wasn t someone to have as a friend competent and lethal yes but that was the only reason I had her with us, when I noticed I was already inside my own place, the TV screen still showed the scene that I paused where I left some time ago, I decided to keep watching it then:
-You must be wondering who is this girl that caught my heart right? continue Leandro, visibly blushing hard I didn t even knew her at first; she arrived here last week I believe, daughter of one of our free couple employees, the relative that used to take care of her died if I am not mistaken and they asked us if she could work part time until she finished high school I actually heard when her dad came and asked my old man for permission while we ate, but I hadn t associated name to figure -At first I thought she was very normal a common nekomimi nothing worth mention I even tried to hit one her just for fun but as incredible as it might sound she didn t show much interest! what really surprised me by the way, seeing even lesbians would be interested in him she had an aura or something like that of purity around her so I just discarded her as someone of not my usual scope of interest however Rick I then noticed that I began thinking about her all the time, not leaving my head for an instant! Is it like that when you think about Yumi? If it is, that is actually very torturing!
-During the following week I just endured that feeling inside of me, thinking that something might be wrong with me! I never felt like that before I spent some time talking to her eventually without second intentions, you know who rare is that to happen in my case Rick her birthday arrived, thirty of May, of course we were invited but neither the old man nor mother wanted to go they asked me to go on their behalf to represent them on the party I decided to go so I could stay with her closer than the usual there she was incredible! I never had seen a girl so pretty before! She dressed a simple and not so adorned yellow dress it was there when I noticed how much I began liking her, even if she hadn t done a thing about it to make it happen -As I was the most important and famous guest at the party, it was given me the honor of dancing with that girl that had just completed sixteen years we danced in a synchrony that I never had seen before I felt even fear Rick it was strong I got upset when I saw her dancing with other gentlemen so much that I left the room minutes later she also left asked me if there was something at the party that didn t please the most important person there that forced politeness bothered me at that instant I understood how you felt that is why you avoid letting people do that to you, isn t it right friend?
-I explained then that with me it wasn t necessary that much formality, that she could talk normally, because we were as equals, and you know how open and honest I am with my feelings then I told her everything, what was going on inside my brain and heart, she listened to everything in silence but with a smile on the lips I spoke for almost ten minutes nonstop when it was over everything she said was that much more sincere than everything you ever said to other women, right? Because it came directly from here and pointed to my chest isn t it? I also had something to tell you, but I was afraid after what was said about you from the other employees however now I saw another Capuleto Leandro -She kissed me Rick! Even after kissing thousands of girls before that shook every fiber of my being! I was so lost that I barely noticed when the meeting of our lips ended; I just saw her blushing violently and running inside the party again as about me I just spent time sitting on a bench outside enjoying the wind that, even being hot was comforting her name? I won t tell you just now! I don t want you to laugh in case it doesn t work out if after a month we are still together I shall tell I never wanted to be someone s boyfriend in this life Rick until yesterday may be what St. Meow wants!
A Leandro so full of passion was something completely out of reality, for instant I thought that he was trying to pull my leg again, that was even worse that those melodramatic romance / drama movies that were so common nowadays however his disturbed image made presence again in the screen, saying then:
-Rick, for now that is all; I know that you are actually really eager to know what is going on, but trust me, the nekomimi radicals won t act so soon! he then began cackling and you know when I ask you to trust me I make my word right? Great! The next part of the video will be available on the day
Then it showed up on screen the following 20d 23h 59m 59s beginning a regressive countdown, I thought three weeks until next revelation? That was way too much time! I knew I could trust Leandro, but would the radicals stay quiet for twenty one days? I would ask Enma to at least take a look at this to see if anything could be made, I believed in my friend however I had this bothering feeling something bad was going to happen too bad it wasn t something related to the video
I decided that as there was nothing else to be done, I took my shower, this time just being helped by Akira, seeing she already had taken hers and couldn t take out her intimate absorbent we slept and on the following day Dawn, Akira and myself headed towards Oliveira L via s house, ready to find out what was the mistake that took the life of my best friend to the point of making him go insane
