"I see that nervous tick you still have"
"Trust me..."I pulled some strands of my hair behind my ear. "...It whopped out of me" My nervous tendencies were irritating even for me, constant biting of my lips and licking them. I was really glad they were off me, not completely though but it was manageable.
A soft meow sound came and we both looked out the window. I smiled instantly when I saw Tiger.
"There you are!" he came to me and hopped on my lap and I patted his head.
"Well if it isn’t Tiger Jnr. I knew I saw a cat running around"
"It’s Tiger" Tiger said grinning and Emilia froze. I guess she doesn’t know Tiger can speak now.
"I removed the Jnr," I said with a forced smile. After everything it just felt right and besides he earned the name. Tiger was one of my emotional supports when recovering from my trauma, and he slept beside me every night. Having a ball of fur snuggling to you every night was therapeutic.
"Ha the cat talks, how? Before I lose my mind"
"When my powers grew he started speaking"
