“Don’t take this the wrong way,” Kaos started, and waited for Makai to come over and wrap an arm around Emil’s waist before continuing. “I’m moving out tonight.”
While both Emil and Makai looked surprised, they also looked a little bit hurt but hid it quickly.
Emil had let go of his hand but now took it again. “You don’t have to leave because of this.”
“I know. It’s not for that. I promise.”
A curious little meow made them all realize they were still standing in front of the open door. “Let’s go inside. You can tell us more, okay?” Makai looked at Kaos, and Kaos could tell Makai was doing his best to understand.
“Yeah.”
Kaos sat in the armchair, leaving the couch for Makai and Emil. The cats followed them, and to Kaos’s surprise, Mouse jumped on his lap instead of going to her daddies.
