THE JAGUAR III

There was a minute of silence after Emma's question, during which Amelia tightened her hold on the blanket that was around her body, and then took a seat on the sofa. She had been standing all this while.

Emma thought of giving her a trouser and sweater and socks from her collection since they were mostly the same size, but she didn't follow through with the thoughts. Her sister was a jaguar, which means that the latter could regulate her body temperature. She only needs clothes to cover her nakedness. The blanket was doing justice to that.

"You aren't going to answer the question?" Emma poses, tired of her sister's silence.
