Xaoi Shing's POV
It's almost 10pm and the moon is so round and big. Glowing brightly, enough to make the road visible.
I'm heading back to my apartment with the bags of snacks for my dog. He's name is Soffee. Cute isn't it? Well,I feel like he really don't like the sound of it. Maybe because he's a male but it's just suits him well. With those silky smooth raven fur of his that whenever it hits the sun, it will shine, always making me feel like I want to lay down on it. Crazy isn't it?
When I got infront of my apartment door, I hurriedly took the key out of my pocket without putting the bags down trying to unlock the door. My precious son is probably hungry.
When I open the door, I immediately call out my son's name.
"Soffee, I'm home. Hello? Hello? Soffee? Soffee where are you? Daddy's home" I called my dog again and again. But no matter how much I call him he didn't respond to me. Maybe he's asleep? Mmm, I guess. That dog of mine is kinda weird. Ya'know.
He isn't that type of dog that will come at you, waging his tail as if welcoming you home with his big fluffy eyes. My dog is way, waaaaayyyyy too different. Whenever he saw me, he always have this annoyed look written all over his face like I'm some kind of insect. He won't even eat his food unless his drink is a luke warm milk instead of water. He won't even play his toys, didn't even laid a single glance at it. To sum it up, he is a boring dog. Literally boring, but even so, I find it adorable. Every little thing he do is just way too cute. That even sometimes, when I'm about to cuddle him, his claws started to appear while facing at me with his angry face. As if giving me a warning to stop.
I put my shoes in the shoe rack before walking in to the living area, but he wasn't there. I've search every corner of the living room. I even went to the kitchen to look for him but he was nowhere to be found. I started to get panic. This has never happened before. There's no way Soffee will go outside when the door is locked. Maybe, maybe there's some robber man who broke in to my apartment but since my place don't have any valuable things, they took away Soffee instead?
'No.no. these can be real. No, pls not Soffee. He's way too delicate' I thought.
My heart started to beat fast. I started to have this idea of Soffee being molested, maltreated, sold or worst died in the process.
With his unmeasurable cuteness, no one can resist it that even the robber man took a liking of him.
My mind was currently wondering off when I suddenly heard a noice coming from my room. It was like a broken glass.
I slowly walk towards my room. Making sure that there's no sound in every step I made.
I stood infront of my room. With my hands shaking, I twisted the door knob, slowly opening the door.
It was dark. Even with a little light from the moon coming in from the window isn't enough.
I went inside. Trying to reach the light switch. But there's no use. No light came out from the light bulb.
I look every corner of the room trying to figure out the situation. Only to find a broken vase in the floor near my bed. Until my attention caught up in corner of my bed.
There's something in in there. Like a figure trying to hide.
I took the baseball bat beside my study table near the door. With my body trembling, I started to walk straight to my bed while holding the baseball bat tightly as my defense.
And there, I saw a man. Take note, not just a man but a naked man. Curling up, hiding it's head.
I slowly stretch my hand out trying to reach him.
He then slowly lift his head up, making me startled. He slowly standing up. His eyes is burning, staring at me.
I look at him. From his face down to his chest, to his stomach, down to his...his...shit! holy wow.. That dangerous tingling thing down there is like it's waving hi to me. When he notice that my attention was on his pushy-lushy thing, he quickly hide it using his hand taking me back to my senses.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
I motion the baseball bat infront of him.
"...."
"Where did you take my Soffee? Where is he?"
"...."
"Are you mute? Answer me!"
"...."
No matter how many times I asked, he didn't respond. He walk a little closer to me enough for him to be hit by the moonbeam. He stare at me, making me feel a bit scared. He has very delicate face. His eyes somewhat looked familiar. The way he look at me is like of Soffee. Soffee.Wait.... Wait a minute. His eyes, the color of his hair are similar to Soffee and his.. his...
"Ahhhhhh" I shouted. Backing away from the man by only a meter.
He..he have ears. A dog's ears on the top of his head. And a tail behind his back.
"Soffee...Soffee is that you? Are you.... are you Soffee?"
The man still didn't respond. He remain standing still. I was still confused. Dumbfounded, didn't know what to do next.
I slowly walk towards him while letting the baseball bat fall off the floor.
When he heard the noice his facial expression suddenly change. From calmness to becoming aggressive.
"Gggrrrrr"
"It's okay..it's okay.. it's me..do you still remember me?"
When I got near him I slowly extended my arm to touch his face. This warm feeling, it is indeed my Soffee. My son.
He didn't move, then a little while, he lean his head into my hand, moving slowly. Making it like I'm caressing him.
It took me a second before confirming that it is indeed Soffee.
"Oh my Soffee. What happened to you? Why did you suddenly become like this?"
"...."
I pulled him into a hug. He retracted a little bit but slowly returning my hug when he suddenly bite off my neck.
"Ahhh. Hey, let go. Let go it hurts. Soffee.. it hurts" I yelled while pushes him to the bed.
Before he loses his consciousness, I heard him say "Sorry".
