“Cheddar, get down from there!” Jasmine Brody marched across the floor, and the offending beast released its grip on the curtains of Kedi Cafe and dropped to the ground, scurrying underneath one of the far tables.
Jasmine surveyed the damage to the curtains, shaking her head as she tutted under her breath. It wasn’t as if the airy white curtains were family heirlooms—she had picked them up at the bazaar just a few weeks ago, in fact—but the cafe itself was heirloom enough that anything that marred its perfectly imperfect facade was an offense.
She set off in search of Cheddar again. The orange demon was one of the newest additions to the fleet of cats awaiting customers every day at Kedi Cafe, a kitten from the nearby cat colony Jasmine was in the habit of feeding. He had followed her back to the cafe a few days ago, and he hadn’t left. And even if he occasionally seemed to be possessed by a spirit that made him puff up his back, zoom across the floor, and climb her curtains, she had a soft spot for him.
“There you are, Cheddar.” She crouched beside the table, and the young cat walked right out to her as if he had forgotten he had even had a reason to hide in the first place. He started purring immediately as he pranced his cocky kitten walk in circles around Jasmine, brushing up against her back and her shins in turn as she remained crouched in place.
