What are you trying to do?
Seeing Arkel standing there with a grim expression, Felixs eyes also narrowed. Arkels eyes flashed as if he was about to swing the poker at the poor cat.
Co on and bring it to !
Lucy remained motionless, Arkel spoke as if threatening once again. Lucy flinched, hugging the cat tightly.
Felix, who noticed it, was about to say sothing, but unexpected words ca out of Arkels mouth.
Hes cold! Co on, bring it to the fireplace!
At that, Felix and Lucy looked at each other with bewildered expressions.
He seems to be feeling cold because his purr is thin! Put it down here, it will warm him up!
Arkel pointed to the hardwood floor illuminated by the fireplace light. Then he took a cushion from the top of his chair and set it down there.
Still looking at the poker in his hand, Lucy slowly approached the fireplace. After a monts hesitation, she laid the cat down on a soft-looking cushion.
The cat stood there for a mont with a blank face, and soon crouched on the cushion.
The cat sat quietly on the cushion with a fireplace that warms the room cozy.
It was a peaceful and warm sight that did not suit Arkel at all. Seeing the cat quietly sitting on the cushion he had laid, Arkel smiled warmly.
I What will you do with the cat?
At Lucys careful question, Arkel imdiately raised his eyebrows and shouted.
What do you an what do I do? Im going to kick him out!
Then he knelt in front of the fireplace and picked firewood with the poker. The fire ignited in an instant, and burned the firewood. The front of the fireplace beca even warr.
Seeing his words and actions contradict, Felix burst into laughter.
It didnt seem like Arkel would do any harm to the cat, and it seed that his business with Lucy was over, so it was ti to leave the office.
Felix said to Arkel, who was looking into the cat.
Then we will go out.
Wait for a mont!
Arkel hurriedly caught him.
You cant just go! I dont know what cats eat. Go get him sothing to eat.
Yes? Us?
Arkel glared with an expression Then shall I go?
Go to the restaurant and get sothing.
They are probably preparing for dinner right now. If I go, Aunt Linda wont give anything..
You are the student council president! Go and do sothing.
I am Felix, not Adrian.
Who would know!
Arkel was reckless.
He even demanded that they feed the cat for a while, not just this once. In short, he thought that they should take care of the cat and he would only love it.
Felix had a headache.
Its not enough that he was suddenly called to rescue a cat, now hes going to take care of it?
Why do we both have to bother taking care of the cat.
But Felix, who was about to complain, stopped. Because he suddenly realized one thing.
Taking care of a cat with Lucy.
The place was quite uncomfortable, but isnt it a good opportunity?
Okay. We will take care of it.
Felix suddenly changed his attitude and answered.
Yes?
Lucy looked at him with a puzzled face at his answer, but Felix asked Arkel with a brazen face.
Instead, give the office key so I can take care of the cat at any ti.
* * *
After a failed plan to join the Book Club, Felix thought of another way to be with Lucy, and snapped up Arkels offer.
Of course, it was a bit unpleasant that the place was Arkels office, but Lucys presence seed to dispel all his evil spirits.
In addition, Arkel was often away from the office for classes, so it was good to be able to spend ti with Lucy.
What should we na the cat?
Na?
At lunchti, Felix asked, putting the fish from the restaurant in front of the cat. Lucy, who was suddenly asked the question, fell into thought.
After thinking for a long ti with a serious face, she couldnt co up with a proper na, so she gave Felix the chance to na it.
There is no na that cos to mind. Is it because I never thought of wanting to raise an animal? What kind of na do you think is fine, sunbae?
In fact, Felix had no na in mind.
Well. Then how about Vivi?
He just said any na that ca to mind. That was the na of the hunting dog kept in the dukes mansion. But after hearing the na Felix suggested, Lucy tilted her head.
Thats your dogs na.
Felix was surprised.
How do you know that?
Then Lucy jumped up from her seat and panicked. She had her face slightly reddened.
Oh Didnt you tell that? Well, when was it.
Lucy thought of excuses and murmured.
?
Did I tell Lucy about my dog?
As Felix stared into the air as if trying to recall his mories, Lucy hurriedly turned her back.
Then how about Lulu?
It seed like a na that was made in a hurry, but Felix nodded.
Lulu? Thats a good na.
Because it was a na that Lucy ca up with, it felt pretty cute.
Then the door swung open and Arkel appeared. As soon as he finished class, he went straight into the room with his shaggy hair ssed up as if he had run in a hurry.
Brotolius!
He shouted at the cat.
Brotolius?
Felix looked at Arkel with a stunned expression at the grandiose and useless old-fashioned na. It was the sa with Lucy, who had just given the cat a cute na, Lulu.
As soon as Arkel returned, he went out to check the condition of the cat.
Did you take care of Brotolius food?
He asked with a stern voice. How shaless, he never even cleaned his poop.
It was already the third day of taking care of the cat instead of Arkel.
But they couldnt continue to take care of him like that. They also had work to do, so it was true that going in and out of the office every day was burdenso. That was the case for him, and Lucy had to study and work at the library.
Felix finally made up his mind and asked Arkel.
Are you planning to keep this cat?
What are you talking about! I have to get rid of it!
Now the cat seed so comfortable that it completely recognized Arkels office as his ho.
Why are you looking at like that? Do you think Im lying? Do you think I cant send out just one cat!
Seeing Felixs dissatisfied expression on his face, Arkel scread.
But the next mont, he suddenly dropped his head to the floor and spoke with a sullen expression.
Anyway, a lady I know decided to take him. I just wanted to have a cat. Im really going to send him today.
Arkels expression looked very sad as he was saying that.
The lady will co here, herself? Today?
Yes.
Felix couldnt believe what Arkel said. It sounded like an excuse to just let this mont pass.
But why would a lady co all the way here to pick up a cat.
At Felixs words, Arkel looked at him with a face that said, What kind of bullshit is he talking about? After a while he opened his mouth.
What are you talking about? The lady is coming to see Keenan. And she decided to take the cat with her.
At those words, this ti, Lucys eyes widened.
Yes? ?
Yes, Keenan! you!
Arkel said as if yelling.
I definitely told you last ti. Im going to find you a supporter!
No, I have.
However, Arkel didnt listen to Lucy and was busy talking.
So, I asked her to co today. If its her, shell be able to support you until you graduate!
It seed that there was a problem with communication. Lucy looked at Arkel with a troubled face, and then took a step forward with a face that said she needed to explain it properly.
But before Lucy could even speak, soone knocked on the door.
Oh, she must be here already.
Arkel got up and walked to the door.
Co in.
He opened the door and said to the lady standing by the door.
The lady entered the office and looked as old as Arkel, but they still felt her dignity and strength standing upright.
This got complicated.
Felix had a hard ti figuring out how to handle this. He looked back at Lucy, hes sure she felt the sa way.
However, Lucys expression was strange. She was staring at the ladys face with a surprised expression more than ever.
But what was even more strange was that the lady, as soon as she saw Lucy, opened her eyes wide and smiled.
Then Lucy opened his mouth and shouted in a voice full of joy.
Madam Triana!
