Sam pov.
After I had blacked out, I had a long dreamless sleep. Though it was blank, it was still a peaceful one which I hadn't have in a long time. I didn't know how long I was out for, but when I had regain consciousness, I found myself in a ward room of a hospital. 'and not a good' I pointed out while I sat up on the bed. I soon took notice of someone seating beside me and saw that it was the huge cat I thought I saw before I passed out. he was asleep .
" his so cute." I grasped softly while quietly moving closer to him to have a better look. It had been a long time since I last imagined someone in an animal form. I thought I was cured, at least that's what my therapist said but I guess not. I starred at him for some time before I began to search this mysterious cat to find out who he was. He was wearing a nice yellow sweater that had pockets and that's when I found his wallet, phone and my car keys.
' He must have bought me here using my car.' I thought to myself before going through his wallet.
" So you're kenith smith and a veterinarian at that." I murmur in amusement when I read his business card before putting the rest of the items back in his pocket but I still kept the card with me.
This was the first time I had ever cared about knowing someone, not less even being curious about their identity unless it had to do with work of course. I didn't even know why I was doing this but but for now I will just go with the flow.
"How unlucky are you to have met me." I whispered while admiring the sleeping cat before I unknowing reach out to touch him which soon left me speechless when I realized I was patting him on his head. For as long as I could remember I had always avoided touching people even if it was a handshake since it always made me uncomfortable but here I was patting and even touching this stranger's face. I didn't even feel irritated but instead I kind of liked the feeling of how smooth his fur(skin) felt.
'I wonder if his eyes were really golden.' I thought to myself. Luckily I didn't have to wait long before the sleeping cat was soon stirring awake. He slowly opened his beautiful golden, Jem like eyes and I could also feel my heart rasing very fast. 'What's happening to me'.
"Oh you're awake now." The cat said awkwardly and I wondered why.
"So you're real." I expressed with an doubtful look which I didn't even bother to hide but than I thought about when I was having my relapse moment, I could have hurt, attack or worst even kill him since I wasn't of a sane mind. This was not the first time I was having a break down or hurt someone because of it and thank God I had not attack him.
"At least you're still alive." I apologize to him which as you can tell wasn't something I hardly ever do, so I asked for forgiveness in my own way without saying the word 'sorry'. I could see that he was confused but he instead decided to laugh I off by explaining what happened to me and introducing himself as ken. We began a conversation and for the first time, I found the presents of someone other than my family to be very enjoyable. I liked the small expression on his face, the way he spoke. I even found myself smiling and gigglingly. I couldn't understand what was happening but I didn't want it to stop. Especially when he had that shocked and helpless expression on his face when I told him that he could keep my car. He began telling me that he did nothing that should be rewarded for and how wrong he was.
" To you it might have been nothing but to me it was everything." I honestly said, because when I was in my darkest hour on finding out that my monster of a grandfather had escape, he pulled me out from my nightmare and it was all thanks to his eyes for distracting me. And that's when it finally hit me 'I liked him'.
Sam: 😑😑😑.
This realization came as a shock but I wouldn't say that I was against it. All my life l had always kept my distance with the opposite sex, never once finding anything interesting in men or paying attention to them. I didn't really know what to do and I don't want want too know but all I could say for now was that I really like spending my time with Kenny(a nickname Sam would be calling him from now on). But unfortunately my parents decided to break our conversation short and pounding me with questions which made me angry, causing me to snap at them for the first time. I was angry not because of the interpretation but because they lied to me.
"*Cough* seeing your parents are now here, I would take my leave." Kenny said as if trying to break the tension. 'his so considerate.' I thought before thanking him with a smile. I could see that my parents were surprise that I was smiling genuinely but I ignore them till Kenny left the room. ' good bye for now.' I thought. For we'll be meeting soon.
