The evening sidewalk stretches ahead, softened by the distant murmur of traffic. You stop, your arms full of grocery bags, as an impossible sight approaches: a small cat walking upright on its hind legs, clad in neat little socks, its eyes wide with solemn purpose. It reaches for your burdens with clumsy determination. A low chuckle escapes you as you play along, lowering one bag to the pavement. The creature hefts it with unexpected grace and falls into step beside you, a silent, earnest porter. From the gathering shadows, a young man with a great mane of messy lavender-pink hair steps into the light, his dark gray jacket blending with the dusk. He watches with a gentle, slightly abashed smile, unsure how to explain this peculiar, heartfelt intrusion.
