Cherreads

Chapter 10 - 9

Racine is munching on some crackers inside the bathroom.

For what seemed like half an hour he had sat still there peeking up even the slightest of sound coming from outside.

Racine somehow can't help but miss the usual quarrel his neighbors have every morning

Despite it being loud Racine can't help but associate it with the simplicity of before.

now it's just quiet so quiet.

Racine didnt realize he had dozed off sitting down until he heard a sound coming from outside

not even trying to check whats inside Racine immediately took his shirt off and wore it back right side out this time.

Then it was quiet again.

Meow

Racine's ears perked up to the sound he then proceeded to look into his phone the surviva guide posted on the internet

there he searched for any specific monsters that it could have been.

In the middle of his search something soft brushed on Racine's legs and he looked down to see a cat looking back at him with its beady eyes

Racine slowly stood up then he tip-toed towards the door and with a swift motion he rushed out of the bathroom and locked the cat behind him.

right after Racine ran towards his room again and back on top of his cabinet but whatever it was didn't follow.

maybe Racine was getting paranoid

'its just a cat?' Racine thought but he didn't dare check it out.

like a figurine placed in a shelve Racine remained in hid position till Adriel came back.

Turns out it really was just a regular cat.

Rubbing his face on the cat's fur Racine asked his brother, "Can i keep him?"

Adriel looked at him then back at the cat or what seems to be something above the cat before replying with a simple, "Alright"

It was in the middle of them having dinner together eating some canned tuna when Adriel spoke.

After all when he got home all he did was mutter to himself.

something about ability, regression and wife.

Racine one of these days should really warn his brother with his mutterings.

"I met your friend Wallace" Adriel said to him and Racine paused.

"Who?"

"I asked him to come but he declined" Adriel added.

"Are you sure its the Wallace i know? That guy never gets out of the house until he basically needs to" Racine said in surprise, "Of course he won't come with you"

"Oh really? I didn't know thats how hid like" Adriel muttered and Racine's eyes narrowed.

'You act as if you personally know him'

putting together all the strange events and even Adriel's strangeness Racine opened his mouth to speak, "Hey-"

Adriel and Racine locked eyes just a few seconds until Adriel completely disapear from view.

"Huh?" Racine mumbled staring at the empty space Adriel once sat.

Meow

Racine felt the cat rub its face on his legs
