Never trust a cat? "Milly's okay," she said, nodding and stroking the top of the cat's head. "She just runs off a lot. But otherwise she's a good kitten." She nodded again, turning back to her food. Then she realized that the girl had been holding up her arm, probably trying to show her something.
"Did a cat do that to you?" Anna gasped, turning quickly to look at the girl's wrist again. Surely a cat couldn't do something like that. Cats were nice.
Louisa watched the girl struggle with her milk, her eyes keeping track of the liquid spilled on the table... it better not reach the edge and seep all over Louisa's uniform. Nobody wanted an angry Louisa. Milly's a good kitten, SCOFF. "
Yeah, right. She is when you have her on your lap like a doll and feed her milk." the sixth year rolled her eyes and narrowed her eyes at the said nice cat. Mhmm. Not gonna believe the angel-like aura vibing off the pet. Not when her wrist was wrapped like this.
"
Yes. Viola, my cat, had to climb a tree and got stuck up there." Louisa explained calmly, her eyes following the liquid on the table first and then off to look for the doughnuts she just came here for. "
Have you seen any doughnuts by any chance?" The table was just so darn long to get a good look from one side. Hmph.
