Chapter 61 Adopting A Kitten, Mayia
On that same day, cities all around the country introduced two new Mangas.
'Naruto' and 'Hataraku Maou-sama' Mangas.
Originally, only the first one would be sent to these bookstores.
But Sayuri managed to secure a joint order after she talked with these bookstores.
Sayuri also managed to sell copies of the SAO light novel, that Theo sent to her, to these chain bookstores around the country.
She and her team were once more shocked by another great story from Theo.
They edited and they were ready to release the novel next
The Fuji Company was becoming bigger and bigger, and the vultures that would arrive didn't know about the giant they were messing with.
While trouble times were coming to the Fuji Company, Theo was at his office studying.
He decided that he would study to increase his skills and proficiencies during the whole day, every day for the next week.
Except for when he had to work at the restaurant.
He was certain that he could increase his knowledge until a level where he could project his house, at the end of the week.
He just finished having lunch with Sam, when he received a phone call from the veterinarian clinic.
"Mr. Gray? We are from the Pet Plus Clinic. We are calling about a kitten you left with us?" a woman's voice said over the phone.
"Yes, I left it there Saturday. Is everything okay?" Theo replied.
"We made some tests, we verified that the kitten is malnourished, anemic, and with an exposed wound from a bite. But it is not a life-threatening situation. We treated it and the kitten is ready to be taken. You can come over anytime." the lady said.
Theo was ecstatic as he heard the diagnosis.
He always loved cats and now he would have one!
'It would be fun to surprise Aurora with it.' Theo thought as he got up and walked out of the building.
He wanted to take the little kitten home already.
He drove his car towards the veterinary clinic, and after driving for 20 minutes, he arrived.
Theo asked about the kitten as he entered the clinic.
5 minutes later, he was called inside a room.
"Mr. Gray? I am one of the pet medics of this clinic and I was the one that treated the kitten." the man said.
"Nice to meet you." Theo greeted the veterinarian.
"The kitten is a female, probably 3 weeks old. We noticed that she has a large laceration over her back. It was probably caused by predators trying to eat her."
"We managed to disinfect the wound and stitch it. She is going to need to take some medications, vaccines to avoid diseases, and to change the bandage of the wound every three days." the veterinarian explained.
Theo sighed in relief after hearing that the kitten would not die.
"Okay, I would like to do that." Theo said.
Like that, Theo spent another hour waiting while the kitten was being vaccinated. He also paid the bill for the treatment. And it was pricy. But Theo didn't even hesitate on paying.
When they called Theo again, he immediately stood up.
"Sir, the kitten is here. You can retrieve her." a lady said to Theo.
Theo looked at the kitten and it seemed that she was another cat.
She still looked wary toward others but her big yellow eyes looked around with curiosity.
She had black and white fur that made her look extra cute.
Theo noticed that he did not have any compartment to take her. Or even the most basic necessities to take care of a cat.
The lady noticing his difficulties said to him.
"Sir, we have a Pet Shop attached to the clinic. You can find all sorts of food, toys, and more stuff to take care of cats there." the lady said.
"Thank you!" Theo thanked her profusely as he looked at her with thankful eyes.
The lady, who already thought that Theo was super handsome, became even more infatuated.
Theo picked up the kitten and towards the Pet Shop.
There, Theo bought so much stuff that he had to ask for help to take the stuff to his car.
He bought a bunch of leashes and collars for the kitten to wear.
Litter boxes, furniture, towers, scratchers, heated beds.
Wet food and milk.
She was still a baby, so she couldn't eat hard food.
He also bought some toys for her to play with.
Theo was already thinking about adding some things to his house project. He wanted the house to be cat friendly.
Theo arrived home and gave the kitten some milk and played with her for a while.
He took a bunch of pictures of her.
'Such a cutie!' Theo almost died of so much cuteness.
Soon it was time to go to the restaurant to cook.
After playing with Theo and eating, the kitten was sleepy.
'The vet said she would sleep more than usual after the vaccines.'
'I hope she sleeps until Aurora and I come back from the restaurant' Theo thought as he looked at her sleeping when he was leaving.
The service that night went much better than the day before.
The three new cooks didn't make any major mistakes. Consequently, the six old cooks had a much better time cooking with a less demanding workload.
After the service ended, Theo told June to not accept any reservations on Monday nights anymore.
"Monday is going to be our rest days." Theo said.
"Thank goddess, boss, it was starting to become too demanding, working every day of the week." June said with a sigh of relief.
"Yeah, for me too." Theo laughed.
"Come on, let's go, cupcake." Theo said to Aurora as he bade farewell to June.
Theo was driving his car with Aurora beside him when he said.
"Hey, I have a surprise for you at our apartment." Theo had playful eyes when he said that.
"Surprise? What is it?" Aurora exclaimed.
"No telling." Theo smiled.
"Please??? Big brother?" Aurora pleaded with a sweet voice and teary eyes.
Theo looked at her for a moment, but he turned his head instantly.
'Her puppy face is becoming more powerful...' Theo thought as he fought the urge to give in to her puppy face.
Aurora seeing that her puppy face didn't work, snorted and turned her head in annoyance.
"We are almost arriving, you going to see soon." Theo said as he heard her snort.
When they arrived, Aurora ran towards the apartment as soon Theo shut down the car.
Theo shook his head while smiling.
He followed her soon after.
While he was entering the apartment, he heard Aurora's scream.
"SO CUTE!"
Theo was greeted by the image of Aurora holding a kitten in her arms as he entered his apartment.
'The two of them are a killing combination of cuteness' Theo thought as he looked at the scene.
"Who's this cat, brother?" Aurora asked.
"I rescued when I was walking by some woods. I adopted her and now she is part of our family." Theo smiled.
"Awww such a cutie! You gonna be our little princess, okay!?" Aurora said as she patted the sleepy cat's head.
"Does she have a name?" Aurora asked.
"No, I wanted to ask your opinion." Theo replied.
They thought for a while when suddenly Aurora exclaimed.
"How about Maya?" Aurora asked.
Theo liked the way it sounded.
"I like it." Theo replied with a smile.
"It is decided. Maya is part of our family now." Theo pated Aurora and Maya's heads.
Both purred with satisfaction.
Theo almost died of so much cuteness when he heard them.
"Cupcake, I was thinking about moving to something bigger. What would you like to have on our new house."
Aurora was surprised, but she trusted Theo.
So, she accepted the change without much hassle.
"How about a gym and some..." Aurora started saying what would she like in her dream house.
