Part 1

And with that, today’s “work” is done~.

(...I’m being followed again)

Meow~!

Sigh… I knew it was you. You really like me, huh?

Nuzzles.

Hey now, stop that.

Well, I guess you wouldn’t understand even if I told you to stop.

Anyways, for today—

Tada.

! Meow! Beep beep beep.

(You're really into this laser pointer, huh. No wonder this thing has such great reviews online.)

Aaand goodbye.

(That cat’s been kinda attached to me ever since I randomly met it on the way home. What’s it’s deal?)

Welcome back, Murakumo-san.

Thanks~. Did you just get back too, Muneuji?

Yes. My student council meeting went on for a little longer than expected.

Gotcha. Students have it rough too, huh?

Well then, I’m gonna go—

Wait a moment.

…Yeah?

Murakumo-san, your clothes are a mess.

Huh?

Your whole body is covered in hair.

I just so happen to have some uniform cleaner you can use.

Oh… Thanks, man. A cat was all over me just now.

(I was already planning on getting these clothes dry cleaned just in case though, so I don't really need it.)

I see. Playing with it until your clothes became like this…You must really like cats.

Huh. Not really…

I’ve heard that a life spent with a cat means an arduous battle with shedding. Do you not have tools ready for this type of occurrence?

Uh, lemme think. Probably not.

Then allow me to lend you the cleaner for a while. It would be troublesome if you were to get covered in cat hair again.

Uhh…

You may return it whenever you like. If you’ll excuse me.

…...

What to do. At this rate, people might start thinking I actually like animals.

Liguang-san…probably wouldn’t ask me to take care of his rabbits, but it’d suck if someone like the boss made me Shumai’s designated walker.

I’ve gotta do something about that cat before that happens…
