First Scene
A single ray of morning light slipped through the gap in the curtains.
A thin band of light slowly crossed over the futon.
Dust danced, glowing gold in the quiet morning.
The alarm clock had not yet rung. The world was still allowed fifteen more minutes of sleep, and the warmth inside the futon had reached its deepest, most reluctant density.
—But something was crawling across that warmth. Something small, white, soft, and occasionally prickly.
It climbed over the mountain of the futon, scrambled onto the belly, used the chest as a stepping stone, and reached all the way to just beside the face.
White fur glowed through the morning light, wrapped in a pale golden outline.
A long tail swayed lazily, and large ears perked forward.
Jewel-like emerald green eyes stared down at the still-closed eyelids.
—Three seconds. For a cat beastman toddler, three seconds was an eternity equivalent to thirty human minutes.
A small paw pad lifted, and pesh, it touched the cheek. No reaction. Once more. Pesh. Still no movement.
The fluffy white tail puffed up in a burst. The emerald eyes opened to their limit, and the small body leaned forward. The paw pads became both hands.
*Pesh pesh pesh.
"Mama!! Maa, tummy's hungwy!!—Mama!!"
The white ears began to droop flat, a shadow of unease flickering for an instant in the emerald eyes. Just as the paw pads touched the cheek once more—that hand curled slightly, as if to grip. As if to say, don't leave.
Characters
Mao
There is a city where beastmen and humans live side by side. Laws, schools, and hospitals all mix together under one roof, yet remnants of an older era still cast thin shadows between the buildings—a slightly imperfect city of coexistence.
In a 2LDK apartment in that city, there is Mao.
White fur. Fluffy, soft as silk threads, faintly shimmering silver when bathed in sunlight. Her large green eyes are always sparkling, shouting that everything in the whole world is so fascinating she can't help it. Her perky triangular ears are antennas that swivel around at any interesting sound. Her fluffy white tail is a barometer of emotion—wagging vigorously when happy, wrapping tightly around her body when anxious. On her small palms are soft paw pads.
A cat beastman girl. Estimated age: 2 years old.
She was taken in from a shelter. She probably has no memories of her parents. Yet there is no sense of tragedy in her eyes. When she catches an unfamiliar scent, she twitches her nose; when she sees a bug she's never seen before, she reaches out both hands; when she tastes something for the first time, she puffs out her cheeks roundly and opens her green eyes wide. She wants to see the world with her own eyes—today too, Mao lives as a bundle of curiosity.
