Chapter 12 - Kiss

Andrew was galloping at Alastor. The cat's hair was flying and hitting Andrew's face. All three were out of breath when they finally stopped in the middle of the countryside. In one swift motion, Andrew jumped off the horse and grabbed Cat by the waist and knocked her to the ground. The cat's face was red. "Did you like?" Andrew took a step towards her. "Yes, sir," said Cat, smiling. Andrew and Cat started walking side by side.

"Mary" Andrew paused, then said, "Are you happy here?" he asked.

"Mr. Andrew you have been so kind to me as no one has ever treated me before, You opened your home, of course I am happy here," she later added. "With you, of course," she whispered. Andrew paused for a moment and turned to Cat. Cat had also stopped, looking up at Andrew.

"Mary, I must be back in London soon," Cat's face showed disappointment. He started walking. Cat followed, walking that way for a while, then Andrew stopped again and turned to Cat.

"Mary, I've thought a lot and decided to make you an offer. Would you like to come with me to London?"

Cat was very surprised and excited to hear this. "Mr Andrew, I don't know what to say? "

Andrew wasn't going to force her if she didn't want to come with him. "I won't force you, Mary. I understand if you don't want to come with me."

"No no, Mr. Andrew, I would love to go to London with you," said Cat, shaking her head. Cat's smile pierced into him as Andrew smiled at her. It was the first time he had seen Andrew smile. "Then we have to agree on something"

" Like what?"

"For once, you have to call me by my name"

"But Blue said that's how you should call me."

At these words, the young girl trembled. His heartbeat quickened and he bit his lip. "Mr Andrew, well Andrew I've never been to London and I have no idea about it." Understanding her concerns, Andrew decided to inform her about life in London.

Two hours flew by as Cat asked Andrew about London and high society and his answers. He hadn't taken a single question of Andrew Cat lightly, nor had he avoided answering any of them. Cat "How many rules are there for women in London? I'll have to follow these rules too" Andrew agreed.

"Each breed has its own specific tasks," he said. "Performing these tasks is said to be quite enjoyable." Cat didn't understand anything of his words. "I do not agree with you. I was freer than those women. " said. Cat obviously had no idea about the rules. She must have had the good manners of a common woman. Andrew didn't want to confuse the girl any further. When their walks and conversations had ended by a lake, Andrew turned to her and put his hand to his chin, lifted her slightly and kissed her on the lips.
