Assurance

I held her hand to assure her that she would be in safe hands with me, being a gentleman I am, I gave her my jacket to cover her up as her clothes were shredded and torn. "My name is Fear by the way." I said in a way that was reassuring for her. Anyone could see her being in a state like she was abused. We ended up on the street after going through the door. Cars were moving past us as we were walking slowly on the sidewalk pavement. I stopped in the middle of the pavement and crouched. "Fear? What are you doing?" "Well, I noticed you were limping so you should hop onto my back. It's much easier for you since you are in this state."

Her lips curved up as she thanked me and hopped onto my back. She was as light as a feather, and I could feel her flying away from my back If I didn't hold her with firm grip. She saw a street car and smiled at the cat. "Fear do you know I love cats?" Great to hear that, I said. As light as a feather, she made it easier for me to carry her, people on the other side of the street were giving her stares like I abused her or attempting to kidnap her. However, that is not the case as she leaned her face onto my back and giving a sign that she was comfortable of the person she was with. I could tell she was uncomfortable, so I quickly walked over to my house with heavy urgency. As the door creaked while opening, I was greeted by Rorie aka my cat. I petted Rorie while closing the door, now that I thought about it, didn't Walmart said she liked cats? I turned my head around to check if Walmart was doing well and comfortable with the new environment. Her eyes were so fixated on Rorie, and I knew she wanted to play with Rorie. "I'll get you changed first and then you can have fun with Rorie okay?" she nodded as a reply. I brought her down and let her sit on my bed while I was looking for spare clothes for her. "Here you go" I handed her the clothes I used to wear when I was in high school. "Take a bath and change your clothes, let me know if you need anything. I'll be waiting at the bedroom. Don't worry, I'll take great care of you."

She responded back in the same way, a nod. Walmart walked slowly to the bathroom. While she was showering, I was thinking of going to a shop later to buy a small mattress and a pillow for Walmart as she was a new person living in my home. Of course, she needs a mattress and a pillow. I informed Walmart that I was going out to buy some stuffs after she came out from the bathroom. As I was looking at the mattress and the pillow at the bottom section of the shelf, I thought to myself "These are pretty cheap huh, I should get them.". However, they were small, and I paused, why are you giving a woman a small mattress? Provide her the best life now since you made it the decision. I said to myself looking like a complete fool in a public store. I went on ahead and searched for a larger mattress and found a large size mattress. I informed a staff member that was walking around and monitoring the area and told him I was going to purchase this and requested for a delivery to my house by today." "I'm home" I had to her know since she was alone. I closed the door and heard no response. I did not see her anywhere in the living room, so I assume she's still in the bedroom. While walking towards the bedroom, I noticed there were multiple cat foods scattered across the floor but there was a faint trail that guided me to the bedroom. As I opened the door, I was greeted by Walmart feeding my cat Rorie."Walmart, what are you doing?"I questioned her. "W-Well, the cat l-looked hungry so I fed her." I smiled as she looked adorable saying that. "I see, do you mind getting onto the bed? I'll treat your ankle "She nodded again and sat on the bed while I treated her." Once you have recovered, do you want to go to the cat cafe? "I asked her as I was treating her. Her crystal clear eyes widened R-Really?" "Only when your recovered though" "T-thank you fear" "Walmart's really happy huh?".

"Here's your food" Walmart sniffed the food as the aroma was filling her nose. "Fear?". "Yes?" "Did you really cook this?". "Of course I did, it's a simple dish yet so delicious as a Michelin cook, after all." "Thank you for what you've done for me so far fear." I smiled at her as a form of reply and continued watching the television. I was cleaning the dishes when Walmart suddenly called out to me. I went to her and asked, "What's wrong?" She pointed towards the direction of the door, and I saw a truck. "Ah, that must be my delivery for the mattress, you should head over to the bedroom while I go collect the delivery." I went out and dragged the mattress to the bedroom. Walmart looked curious and asked. "What's this?". "It's my mattress to sleep on". "And what about your bed?". "You can sleep on it". She looked guilty as I unpacked the mattress and pillow, so I assured her it was nothing. The sky was already dark but filled with shiny stars indicating tomorrow would be a great and promising day again. However, it was time to sleep as it was past my curfew. "Well, I shall be going to sleep now. Goodnight Walmart" "Goodnight". I was questioning myself why I took the mattress that was smaller than my bed, wasn't I supposed to use the bed and Walmart use the mattress? I found out the answer to my question, it was me that said I promise to take good care of her and made sure she had a better life. So, in that split second when I entered the room, I changed my mind and made the decision to sleep on the mattress instead.
