“Umm...can you...” I began asking.
“Yes, I can carry you...” he replied as if he knew exactly what I was going to ask.
My eyes widened in surprise before I collected myself and nodded at him in thanks. At least that saved from the embarrassnt of asking him to carry up. Instead of carrying , the man turned his back to and crouched down.
“Climb on my back, or you can sit on my shoulders, whichever you prefer,” he said casually.
He waited as I hesitated. I had never ridden on a man’s or anyone’s back. So, how do I climb up soone’s back precisely? On top of that, I might be heavy, so...
“What are you waiting for?” he asked with a hint of impatience.
“Umm...I’m sorry, but...I don’t know how to get on soone’s back...” I admitted shyly, and a blush crept up my cheeks.
The man turned and stared at my face before laughing quite loudly. His hand moved to cover his lips as he continued to laugh even louder than before while I stood there frozen in embarrassnt.
I shouldn’t have told him that...
“Co here,” he said after his laughter had subsided sowhat.
He gestured with his hand for to approach him, but when I hesitated, he approached .
“Umm...” I mumbled, at a loss for what to do.
“Stop spacing out, young lady...” he said.
I felt his arm around my thighs for a mont before he lifted . It all happened so fast, and I was still confused about what had happened when I found myself sitting on his shoulder with his arms around my body to support .
“You can reach quite far up this way, right?” the man said, followed by a joyous laugh.
He was right. I could reach up relatively high like this, and both arms are free. This wasn’t very comfortable, and the skirt of my maid uniform wasn’t exactly long either. However, the frightened cry of the cat helped focus on the task at hand.
“Co here, kitty...” I called out sweetly to the scarred cat.
“Be careful...” the man warned.
“Ok...” I murmured in reply.
The cat seed scared, but because it couldn’t move to get away, I managed to secure it in my hands and then in my arms.
“I got her...” I said while assuming that the cat was a female.
“Right then, I’ll help you slowly get down...” he said reassuringly.
Things didn’t turn out as simple and easy as he made it sound when the cat started struggling in my arms. I could already tell that at least one of its legs was injured, and that made hesitate to let go because I wasn’t sure if the cat could make a safe landing.
“Hold still...please stop struggling...” I begged the cat desperately.
We did not understand, and the cat refused to stop struggling in my arms while I tried to manage. I didn’t realize I was moving around too much until I felt myself falling. Panic gripped , and I closed my eyes tightly as I hugged the cat tightly to prevent its escape. I clenched my teeth and braced for the impact of my fall, which didn’t materialize.
“You look very comfortable...” the man muttered.
Slowly, I opened my eyes to see his face very close and right before mine. The cat was no longer in my arms but had settled right next to us on the grass. On the other hand, I was lying on sothing firm and warm, and when I glanced down, I gasped when I realized that I was straddling the man’s hips in addition to having my entire upper body pressed on top of his. Blood rushed to my face when I felt the warmth and hardness of his chest pressing against my breasts.
Why didn’t I realize this before?
This man...he slls just like roses...
“Oh no! I’m so sorry! Are you okay?” I exclaid in shock as I sat up.
I continued to blush when he started laughing a little at . At least he wasn’t mad...
“Rather than worrying about , shouldn’t you be more worried about yourself?” he asked, amused.
“But I’m fine, so...” I murmured.
I wasn’t hurt, thanks to the fact that I landed on top of him.
“Is that so?” he asked teasingly.
“Well...” I mumbled before I realized that I was still straddling his hips.
I gasped quite loudly before I got off him. My face felt numb from shock, and I was utterly mortified about what had just taken place. The cat sat and owed beside us as if asking for our attention.
“Umm...I think the poor cat’s leg is injured...” I said to change the direction of our conversation.
“Let’s take it to the infirmary. I’m sure the doctor or nurse there can treat it,” he said calmly.
The cat hissed again when he tried to get close. I guessed the cat didn’t like the man for so reason.
“Co here. I’ll take you to the doctor,” I whispered, taking the cat back into my arm and standing up.
I glanced at the leaves falling onto the grass beneath the large tree. During our ti retrieving the cat from the tree, many l down.
“Don’t worry about the leaves. Let’s get the cat to the doctor first,” he quickly advised.
I nodded in agreent after tearing my eyes away from the fallen leaves on the ground.
...
“I would like to say that it’s nothing serious, but that’s not the case. The wounds in both its hind legs are profound. Thankfully, none of the bones are broken,” the doctor said before she smiled.
“Thank you so much for your help!” I thanked her loudly.
