As night blanketed the entire city, Himari woke up in a daze. She was startled when she found that she had slept on the couch for hours. Her apartment was dark safe for the light that came from the lamp poles and houses outside.
"Urgh! How could I just sleep here?"
Himari grimaced as her limbs felt numb. Her back felt so sour after hours of sleeping in the same posture. She had to support her stiff legs by propping on the nearby cabinet before she could slowly straighten her entire body.
"Chobi! Where are you? Cough!"
Himari's voice was a bit hoarse as she was calling for her furry son.
Did he sneak out again?
Not long after, the sound of 'Meow~' came from the kitchen.
In the dark, two glowing eyes moved toward her before the sensation of fur and warmth rubbing against her legs seeped into her skin. Himari laughed as it felt ticklish.
"Meow, meow~"
"Are you hungry? Hang on. Let me switch on the lights first."
