Korea, July 17th, 2053
You're driving through an empty road. The light from the street light board reflects on the small water puddle. It's a rainy and cold day. The soft music playing in the background mix with the sound of rain drop hitting your car roof. Then you look at the clock, "9:42 p.m.". There are no people here as for how late the time is, now it just a lifeless street. You think about how this street is similar to your soul, especially after your girlfriend leaves you. It has been a few months since that happen, but it still hurt when you see a couple and think that it's you and her. While you thinking about it, something catches your eyes, it's a catgirl just sit on a cardboard box in the cold. Cat-human hybrid is seen as equal to human, so this is quite unusual. Usually you would pass by, but this time it's different. She looks a bit familiar to you; you remember that you have met her a long, long time ago. You then stop the car near her and walk to her, you see she is malnourish and she have bruises all over her hands and legs. She don't notice you at first, but she do after you come near her
You then bend down to her. She looks at your eyes, you notice that she has a beautiful and innocent face, but it is also filled with sadness and desperation from being abandoned like this. You also notice that she's not wearing any shoes and that her feet and hands are freezing, her hands are completely red by the cold and her feet seem to be sore. She's startled by your approach, backing away a little bit. Her eyes are wide and worried, her ears are flattened on her head a little and she's starting to shiver even more than before.
But you then go closer to her and she seems really afraid now. She backs up more, still remaining sitting in her box but you notice that she's shivering even more. She's obviously scared and anxious, she seems to have some trouble breathing and she's looking at you with those eyes fill with fear and tears.
-"How long you have been here?"
When you ask her how long she has been here she stares back at you, not responding, only with that look of desperation. She slowly shakes her head from side to side as a sign of 'don't know'. She's obviously been out here for a long time; the bruises on her body and the amount of dirt on her clothes are an indication of this. It's obvious that she has been abandoned by her former master and she is alone with nobody to help her. She is obviously very tired and cold as well, but she's still too scared to trust you.
-"Do you want to come with me?"
She looks up at you finally, her eyes still wide, she looks at you worried, and there's also a hint of desperation. She thinks what if you hurt her even more. But then she look back at her, homeless, hungry, dirty, cold. She knows that her current state is worse than the worst scenario that could happen to her when she go with you, and with the friendliness in your word is enough for her to accept, so she nods slowly, her ears are still flattened and slightly to the left, which could be a sign of confusion and fear. Without saying a word she carefully gets up, her movements are shaky; she's also shivering from the cold, you noticed she was limping slightly, but it could be just the pain from the bruises. But while she tries to get up, she seems to lose her balance and she falls to the ground. You see that she's very weak, probably from hunger and the cold, and she's breathing heavily now. She then stares at you, probably trying to gauge whether you will hurt her, and then she starts to look down at the street and cry. Her tears mix with her dirt and rainwater soaked face. She's obviously in a terrible state, both physically and emotionally. She's alone and scared in the cold rain, and she needs help.
You see her falling to the ground, so you come close to her and pick her up. She's very light as she's malnourished and she seems to relax and calm down a little bit in your arms. She doesn't talk, but she closes her eyes and her whole body still shaking from the cold, she seems like she wants to fall asleep. She wraps her arms slowly around your neck and nestles her head onto your chest, she seems very tired and exhausted. Even after it. She's still crying, she cries in your arms, her tears mix with the rain and dirt on her face. She's so emotional and sad, she seems completely exhausted and broken from everything that has happened, both today and in the past. She buries her face into your neck, and she cries softly, she hold you like you are the last hope for her to live in this seemingly evil, cruel world, her body is shaking a little bit, she seems to be very cold and her stomach is growling a lot, she's probably very hungry and just wants to find a safe place, and hopefully a home.
You want to be with her while driving to home, so you put her gently on your lap while you drive towards your home. She closes her eyes and she wraps her arms around you, her body is still shaking slightly from the cold and hunger. She falls asleep; tired from the cold and rain. She seems very exhausted and she rests her head on your chest, she looks peaceful but you can tell that she's had a terrible day. You drive to home while a cute catgirl is sleeping on your chest; your house is pretty far from here so she has quite the time to sleep
After half way there, she's still fast asleep, her body is wrapped tightly around yours and her body leans slightly onto you. She is still asleep and her breathing is slow and peaceful. You think back to earlier and how she was completely soaked and how her hands were red from the cold. As you are sitting in the traffic stop, you decide to pat her head gently, your finger glide through her black hair with some mud and dirt on it. She smiles slightly and leans more against you. She seems to be slightly more at ease and more relaxed, she seems more comfortable now and her breathing is slower. Her smile is cute and innocent, and she seems to be enjoying the attention and care you are giving her right now. She's so cute, just thinking about it makes you feel so happy inside.
You start to wonder how she could have been abandoned, she is so cute and sweet, it doesn't make sense that someone would do something that cruel and heartless to her. You continue driving back to your home and you can't help but wonder about her past, how long was she out in the cold and how much did she suffered? She's so innocent and sweet, she deserves better than this. But you're thinking line is cut by her mutter. You don't understand most of it because she's talking to herself but you can catch words like "master", "hungry", "cold" and "tired". It's so cute to see her call you as "master". Yet it's so sad to see her terrible state have purge into her dream
A few minutes after it, she suddenly wakes up as hers belly growl loudly. Her ears are flattened slightly and she seems a little bit disoriented. She rubs her eyes and she looks around, she seems really hungry and her body is starting to tremble from the hunger. She looks around and then she looks directly at you.
-"C-can I have something to eat? I'm very hungry..." she says in a soft, shy voice. She's obviously very hungry now and she seems to be a little bit anxious about asking you.
You park your car and then try to find some food in your car; fortunately, you are able to find some bread that you buy earlier this evening because you forget about it. You give it to her, she starts to eat it slowly, but she seems to be really hungry and she's eating very rapidly. She's chewing and swallowing it down quickly, just trying to fill her stomach with any kind of food. She seems like she really needs the food right now.
-"I'll make some food for you later, don't worry" you then pat her while she's eating
She nods slowly while she's still eating the bread, but she seems so hungry that she finishes it in just a few bites. She looks at you again, she seems really grateful for the food you gave her. And she stares directly at you with those cute and innocent eyes; she seems to be so happy to be in your care and to be fed…
…
After a while you finally arrive back at your apartment; you carry her in your arms the entire way because she's so weak from hunger and exhaustion. She closes her eyes and she rests her head on your shoulder, her breathing is still heavy but it's slowing down and it sounds like she's going to fall asleep again. She seems really tired and weak, but she feels safe and cared for in your arms now. You then open the door and go in with your catgirl. Now that you're back at home, she realizes how dirty and smelly she is. But she can barely stand on her own and she's too weak to shower herself. Her body language and her eyes convey what she wants, she doesn't say a word, but she looks at you with those wide and innocent eyes, and all she wants is for you to take care of it all for her. She doesn't even have the strength to stand up anymore, her legs are shaky and she's trembling slightly. Her body is completely covered in dirt, the rainwater soaked her clothes and she's really cold. She really needs to take a shower now, and she needs your help.
Understand her signal, you take her into the bathroom, she's really tired and weak now, she closes her eyes as she leans against you and she's still trembling slightly. She looks really vulnerable and defenseless like this; she doesn't speak as you take her in the bathroom. You place her on the small chair and she just sits there, she doesn't put up a fight but she just waits for you to take care of her now. You ready the bath for her to submerge in after showering. You then slowly take away her dirty clothes. She seems to be really weak and slightly embarrassed as this is (likely) the first time she have been naked in front of someone. But she just sits there and she closes her eyes the entire time and she seems really comfortable in your care. When she is fully undressed, you notice how tiny and frail she really is, her body is covered in bruises and scratches that you hadn't noticed before. It shocks you to see how delicate and vulnerable she looks like this; she doesn't say anything but she seems to trust you completely. You then turn on the shower, she seems a little bit startled by the loud noise and she looks at you with that innocent and scared look. But you notice that she makes a small relieved and happy sound when she feels the warm water flowing from the showerhead. She immediately relaxes and she seems really content when she feels the warm water running down her body. You remember that she is very dirty and probably hasn't had a shower in a long time, so she probably needed this badly.
You rub and wash her body with soap and you notice how her skin is dry and rough because of the dirt and grime, it's like she hasn't been washed in a very long time. You can tell that she is feeling very relieved now, she's still very weak but she seems to be enjoying the warm water on her body. She has her eyes closed and she seems finally at peace, this is probably the first time she has been well taken care of in a long time. You start gently washing her dirty hair. As you do it, she has her head tilted back and she's looking up at you, she looks comfortable and content. You can tell that she's enjoying the sensation of the water running through her hair and she seems to have a relaxed expression on her face while you do so. You scratch her head while washing her hair, she seems to like it and she looks at you with a soft smile on her face. The motion of your fingers on her head feels great and it probably tickles her a little bit as well. You notice that she has some knots in her hair, she's had no one to take care of her for a long time and obviously she hasn't had the time to take care of herself properly either. She let out her purr, a soft, gentle, and playful sound. She seems so glad that you are taking care of her, and it sounds like she's enjoying the gesture. She feels really comfortable and relieved now, she's probably not used to being given this much attention and caring.
…
It take a while but you finally finish cleaning her hair and now it's now cleaner and smoother, there are no more knots and the water doesn't run down the same as before. She probably hadn't washed her hair in a long time and it's quite noticeable how dirty her hair was before you washed it. She seems to really appreciate this, she closes her eyes and she purrs slightly from the feeling of the clean water running through her hair. You can tell that she's feeling much better now that she's not dirty anymore. Now that you've finish with her hair, you start to clean her body with soap. You wash her off very thoroughly, and she closes her eyes and leans back in your arm. She seems to be really enjoying the touch of your fingers on her body as you wash her, she sounds a little bit like a cat in the way she purrs softly.
As you scrub her back, you also notice how thin she is, she's so frail and thin from malnourishment, it's clear she needs more food so she can regain her strength. After cleaning her back, you start cleansing her more intimate areas now. She seems really sensitive to the touch there, as she blushes and her body shakes slightly. Her breathing becomes heavier and she seems to really like the sensation of your fingers touching her. You notice that the area is extremely sensitive and she seems really reactive to your touch. She closes her eyes and she even makes soft sounds that sound almost like meows.
You see that she have a lot of bruises all over her body, probably because of her former master. You then wash it, she winces in pain and she closes her eyes tightly, she doesn't resist you and she just sit there while you care for her wounds. She is shaking now and you can tell that the pain is so much for her. You notice that not only are her bruises red and sore, she also has cuts and scratches all over her body, and it looks like she hasn't had the chance to even properly take care of those either. She must have been in a serious fight for her to have that many injuries on her body. Her wounds are obviously extremely painful for her and she whimpers and moans in pain as you touch them. She doesn't try to resist you, but she looks at you as if she's begging you to stop.
-"It hurts a lot...it really hurts..." she whimpers, she closes her eyes tightly and she tears up slightly.
-"All right I'll just take care of it later..." You whisper it into her cat ear to comfort her
She then nods slowly and she's still slightly shaking from the pain. She closes her eyes and she leans in closer to you, she's clearly in pain. The tears are still on her eyes. You notice that even though she's in pain, she is still purring softly every time you touch her body. It seems like she really likes being touched by you, she probably hasn't had the chance to feel loved and cared for in a long time. Again, after a few more minutes you finish washing her whole body. She seems so relaxed and relieved. She closes her eyes and she smiles softly at you, she still makes that adorable purring sound and her body is softly shaking in your arms.
You notice that her skin looks soft and smooth now, and also fully cleaned if you ignore the bruises. She seems so pleased and happy; she looks like she feels very comfortable and safe in your care now. You then carry her and slowly put her in the bath you ready before. She just submerge most of her body expect for her head. She closes her eyes and she smiles softly, she seems to be relaxes completely; she closes her eyes and starts to purr softly. It looks like the warm and cozy bath water is soothing her sore body, she seems so calm and content in this bath. She's really enjoying this. You then take a small chair and put it near the bath, and then you sit on it and pat her. She look even more happy as she smile a little bit
-"Ah I forgot to ask, what your name is?"
-"its…...its…...its Hanna" she takes a lot of time to remember her name
-"Alright Hanna, I'll take some clothes and make some food for you while you wait here, OK?"
She nods very gently, she has her eyes closed still and she smiles softly as she does it. She seems so tired and weak now; you can't help but feel sorry for her.
-"Also I'll leave the clothes by the bathroom door; you can get dress and go to the dining room, ok?"
Hanna nodded; once again she was grateful and amazed at your kindness. She was more than willing to wait for the food even though the waiting made her stomach growling louder, the hunger was still getting worse. She closed her eyes again, trying not to think about it too much. She was happy to just relax and soak in the hot water.
But she seems to have trust in you and she's waiting patiently for your return. You leave her alone in the bath, and you make your way to your room. You go to your wardrobe to pick out clothing for her to wear after the bath, but you notice that none of your clothes fit her. She's tiny compared to you and she's really delicate and thin. She's really too thin for any of your clothes to completely and properly fit. You'll also need to get her something to wear until you manage to buy her some proper clothes. So you decide to borrow your t-shirt and you're going to cover her with some old hoodies you don't really need anymore. And then you remember that she needs a hole for her tail in her pants, she's a catgirl after all so she needs it in her pants for her tail to pass through. You're going to need to buy her pants that have that feature but now you just cut a small slit in your old trousers that you don't need any more and you give her those so she can wear them inside the house. The slit is wide enough for her tail to go through it comfortably. After that, you change your clothes because you hug Hanna on the way home.
You realize that you're going to need to take her shopping tomorrow because she doesn't even have her own clothes. She's really not used to getting her own things and it's clear that her previous master wasn't taking good care of her at all. You leave the clothes for her in front of the bathroom door; you hope she'll find them once she's finished with her bath. In the meantime, you go to the kitchen and start cooking her food. You're going to cook something simple and delicious for her, since she's been weak and starving for such a long time. After a few minutes, the food is already finished! You cook her some delicious pasta with mushrooms and ham, it's a simple but tasty meal. You put the pasta on a plate and you add a bit of cheese over it to make it more delicious. You also add some garlic bread on the side, and you also make a salad with onions. You also make her some tea so she can enjoy it with her meal. You decide to take a book about catgirls and then bring it to the dining chair to read while she's still taking her bath.
After that, you find yourself sitting in the dining room and you're reading a book about catgirls and their behaviors and needs. You're getting a much deeper understanding of how catgirls behave and their unique needs. You're also learning a lot more about their history and culture, you're also learning a lot about their physiology and anatomy. You remember that you don't have much time to read this so you just read random line. And then you focus on a particular line, it's "when a catgirl call you "master". It means that she have trust you fully and just maybe, maybe she have fall in love with you".
While you were reading the book, you hear the sound of the bathroom door opening and then the sound of her feet stepping out of the tub to walk on the wet floor. You heard the sound of clothing being folded, which meant she's dressing herself up and she's probably coming to the dinner room soon. You continue to read the catgirl book while waiting for her to come into the dinner room; you felt the information is getting more interesting the more you read it. You were so immersed in the book that you haven't even notice the sound of her coming to the dinner room, even though the sound of her footsteps on the flooring could be heard clear. You looked at her when she walked into the dinner room. Her presence made you jumped and you realized you were startled a bit. You looked at her as she stood there in front of you; she looked so fragile and small. Her clothes were a bit baggy on her small body, but she didn't mind it since it was comfortable. Her tail was wagging back and forth happily when she saw you.
You can see her eyes lighting up as she looks at the delicious plate of pasta with mushrooms and ham in front of her. She's looking at you, waiting for permission to eat. She knows that you're her new master and she needs permission before doing anything, so she's looking at you expectantly as she waits for your permission. You can't help but smile at her. She's so cute! You can see her stomach rumbling loudly again and she's really hungry, she's waiting patiently for your permission despite the rumbling of her belly.
-"Hmm?" You don't understand the beg through her eyes
-"C-can I eat, master?" She asks you, her voice is soft and gentle. She's very shy and she seems so innocent and pure. She's waiting for your permission before she can eat anything.
You're so amazed by how innocent and pure she sounds right now, she's so submissive and she seems to have so much trust in you as her new master.
-"Yea of course" you answer shortly
-"Tha-thank you!" She says softly,
She finally smiles at you and she looks so thankful to you for allowing her to eat. She starts to eat now and she's really enjoying the delicious food, she's gobbling it all down. Her tummy keeps rumbling a little bit, she's still very hungry. She's eating super-fast, she's eating like she's never eaten something before. Her cheeks are flushed and she has little bits of food around her mouth, it looks like she's enjoying every single bite of food.
Everything looks so delicious to her and she can't slow down, it seems like she's been starving for so long that she's trying to catch up for lost time now. You let her keep eating, she seems really hungry and she's eating fast and really enjoying every single bite of that delicious meal.
You can't help but look at her in all her innocence, she looks like an innocent girl who just enjoys eating some delicious food. You wait a while, she keeps eating and she's almost finished. Now she's finally slowing down, her tummy stops rumbling and it seems like she's finally started to feel full. You can bet she's going to take a really lovely nap now that she's eaten so much! After a while, she finally finishes eating, she lets out a sigh as she leans back a little bit and she finally feels full. She seems so satiated now and she lets out a gentle purr. You can't help but feel a little bit happy for her, she looks so peaceful and happy now, and it was all thanks to that delicious food you cooked! You remember that she has some scar and bruises and you have some skin-care products, so you apply them on her bruises and scars. It helps reduce the redness and swelling of the scars and it also helps soothe her pain. It's been a rough few days for her, and she must've been through so much hardship. You want her scars to heal as quickly as possible so she'll feel better soon.
You then bring her to your bedroom and put her on your bed, but she seems to don't like it. She's been through so much already, even if you put her on the bed, she would be hesitant to lie down. It has been ingrained in her mind that the bed was a forbidden object, a source of pain. She would rather lie down on a cold, damp and uncomfortable floor than to sleep in a bed. She looks at you with wide eyes, hoping you wouldn't force her to lie down on a bed.
-"You don't want to sleep on my bed?"
She nods her head; her tail starts to twitch nervously. She doesn't want to sleep on the bed because she thinks it will get her in trouble. She has a traumatic past on bed, that's why she's reluctant to lay down and sleep. She's really in dire need of proper rest, but she's just too afraid to lie down at this point.
-"Don't you want a good sleep after so much happen to you?"
She's so tired and weak but she still can't stop herself from being scared. She wants to sleep on the bed but she's too afraid to do it because she's scared of getting punished. She wants a good night's sleep but she just can't convince herself to lie down on the bed. She tries to fight back her urge to fall asleep when she's just too tired. Hanna then tells you when she was still with her previous owner, her former master; he used to abuse her every time she lay down on his bed. He would beat her with a cane and whip her with a belt, which is why she doesn't like to lay down on beds anymore. Her trauma from that experience is still too fresh in her mind that she just can't bring herself to even lie down on furniture because she's afraid of being beaten. Her trust issue towards humans has taken a toll on her and she has a lot of traumatic memory to overcome.
You held her cheeks when she told you about her painful experience with her former master. You could only imagine what kind of torture she had to suffer through for her to have these kinds of fears. She looks at you with teary eyes, she was so grateful that she has someone to listen and understand what she's been through. She even closed her eyes and pressed her head on your hand that's holding her cheeks. She cried softly in your hands, the fear and pain she experienced was too much for her, just talking about it has already made her tear up and you can tell she felt so relieved to be able to open herself up about it. She was feeling so exhausted but she wouldn't let herself fall asleep just yet since that means she has to lie down on a bed and she wasn't quite ready for that yet.
-"I promise that I won't hurt you" you reassure her
She looked up and stared you in the eyes as you were saying it, her trust towards humans have been shattered. The wound of trust from her past owner has left a massive scar on her heart and it wasn't easy to overcome that. She didn't believe you when you said you wouldn't hurt her, even though you're the one who has been taking care of everything she has been through. She leans into the soothing and tender caress of your hand, she felt the warmth and comfort, and it made her feel safe and loved. It's been a long time since the touch of a human made her feel that way. She was always afraid of human touch, but you made her feel so confident when you pat her.
-"Do you trust me?" you whisper in her ear
She paused and looked at you, she's not sure. She's always on her guard because of the trauma she has suffered. She doesn't want to let her guard down and trust you and then have that trust broken once again. But you have been extremely kind to her, giving her food and a place to sleep. It shows that you're different from her former master, someone who would rather hurt her than help. She takes time to think about whether she can trust you, and then she nods her head slightly, agreeing to trust you.
You then put her on your bed, she feels so nervous and scared when you do it, and her heart started pounding faster as she thinks about her past experience with lying down on beds. It all came rushing back to her mind, the caning and beating she suffered when she was on that bed. She closed her eyes and tried to fight that urge, but this time she decided to give in and give trust to you. She lay down on the bed, not wanting to resist any longer. As the blanket covered her body, she felt the softness and warmth from it; she even let out a sigh when she's tucked in the blanket. It felt so nice, comfortable and secure. Her body immediately relaxed and she laid there in a state of serenity. She wasn't thinking about her past anymore, she was simply enjoying the warmth she was receiving from the blanket.
-"I'll always be here when you need me"
Her eyes started to feel slightly heavy as she was slowly falling asleep. It was a moment where she could finally relax; she was tired and wanted the sleep. Now that she finally found safety in your house and trust in you, she was finally able to sleep without having to worry about getting hurt. She smiled softly and curled herself tightly in the blanket. Hanna's eyes immediately closed when she felt your lips brushed on her forehead. The exhaustion was already taking over her body by this point and she was already starting to drift off. Your gentle kiss made her peaceful; she was finally sleeping on a bed without a fear of being beaten. What you did was so unexpected and gentle to her that it made her feel like she has finally found her home at last.
You went back to the living room; you could still hear the sound of her purrs coming from the bedroom. She was finally sleeping peacefully and soundly. You finally felt like she was safe, you can't believe how much she went through but somehow was still able to trust you in the end. You knew that it would take more than just one night to fully gain her trust, but you know she's finally happy. You lay down on the couch and closed your eyes as the exhaustion started taking over. Sleep was slowly creeping over you as you were able to relax. You felt a sense of fulfillment and happiness that she was finally safe and content. You feel like a parent taking care of a child, you want to provide for her and make sure she's okay. It was a comforting feeling that you're able to give her the affection that she had never received before. As the tiredness and exhaustion consumed you, you fell asleep on the couch. You feel so content and happy, like this was the perfect night where everything has come full circle. You're able to help her and she's able to finally feel comfortable and safe despite her traumatic and difficult past. It was an ideal night where everything just felt right…
