Chapter 17 - CHAPTER XIV

LU SHAO AN'S POV

I was still surprised and astonished by my sudden changes. It only took a millisecond that I transform back into my stupid 'dog' shape. I don't know if it were be a luck or not but I'm still glad that the old creature didn't saw me back then. He didn't even believe what the new creature said. I guess I have to be more careful now that I can regain my true form.

I lay comfortably in my own bed in the corner of the living room because the new creature forbid me to enter the weird creature's room. He said that I'll contaminate his cousin's belonging if I were to sleep inside.

Truthfully, playing with this new creature seems to be a lot of fun. He always scream whenever I get near him with his irritating voice that he usually received smack from the old creature. I thought at first that I might have trouble hiding my true form specially with this new creature's blabbering mouth.

I was trying to figure out how did I turn back to my current form when the old creature suddenly said the weird creature's name. It gives me a thought to why he didn't get back home yesterday.

(Did I scare him? Did he abandoned me? Did he fall out of care for me?)

I tried to listen to the old and new creature's conversation since their where in the kitchen eating their meal when a sudden noise interrupted them. The old creature stood up as he head to where the noise come from. He grab something above the table in the centre of the living room then he put it beside his ears.

"Hello Xaoi Shing.....Yes we did..... totally fine. Even more hyper....Oh traffic jam, I see...Yes I will, no problem... ofcourse....see you then"

He said then he pull away the thing he used. The moment I saw this old creature, I have a feeling that he is not an ordinary human. The way he look at me with his deep brown eyes feels like I was inside of a hollow world, falling endlessly. Even the way he spoke and approach me seems like he knew me from the very start. He is also considerate and gentle but eerie. Though he smiles at me at most but those curve lips is kind of a dagger in a candy wrap that sometimes sent shiver to my spine. Whenever I met his gaze, it gives me a vibe of warning that I should behave or so. I sometimes purposely avoided him afraid of being discovered. And now, all I want is to have that weird creature back that those 2 people.

The old creature turn back to his sit and continue eating his meal. And I? nah, I was given a fucking bone and a cold milk like what the heck is wrong with this creatures? Who the fuck would eat a bone? and how am I supposed to eat it when it is as sturdy as hell? Are they fucking kidding me? I have the urge to transform back into my original shape and slap them hard with this fucking bone to have them a taste.

I tried to close my eyes to relieve my frustrations when I heard the new creature talking to the old one. I'm not an eavesdropper, I just like listening to them talk.

"Is it little Shing Shing, uncle? What did he say?"

"mmm, nothing much. Just asking if we're fine and if we're feeding Soffee healthily"

"Oh when will he come back? it would be better to be so soon so that we can expel those MONSTERS and BEAST in this apartment"

The new creature looked at me in disgust will voicing out the word 'Monster' and 'Beast' out loud. I just ignored him, trying to focused on their conversation. AGAIN.

"He's on the way now. Just a bit of heavy traffic that stop them"

"Oh. I hope he brought along a taoist master"

"Stop it, LanYi. It won't be of help anyway"

"But we don't know if we won't try"

Their conversation lasted for atleast I don't know, and I won't care. I crazily fuckin hungry and this two old chickens was enjoying their meal.

(hmp. just you wait, you two. I will have my revenge)

The old creature seems to notice me ignoring my food bowl as he draw closer to me.

"What's wrong Soffee? Don't you like your food?"

(Like the heck?)

"Is it not your liking?"

(What do you think?)

"What do you like then?"

(Isn't it obvious? I like my usual food and a warm milk. Not just this stupid bone and this what? frozen milk? Do you want me to have diarrhea?)

"okay then, wait a moment"

The old creature took my bowl and went back to the kitchen. To I don't know replace my food or throw it away? But then I froze for a minute when I realize something. Wrong. Something's definitely wrong. Did he just talk to me? Telepathic ability? Did we just made a conversation using that ability? He can read mind?

I look at the man with a shocked showed all over my face. Still in disbelief that the old man talk to me for minute without me realizing it right away.

The old creature head back again with a dog bowl in his hand the put it in front of me. The bowl was now change into my usual dog food and the other is a warm milk. I look up at the old creature, astonished. My mind won't process the event that just happened. I don't know how to react or what to do. He just stare at me blankly then turn back away approaching the new creature who's been washing the dishes.
