Hugo looked at Hendrix, who was in his hands. He turned into his cat form and they were currently on their way toward the met-up place that both Hugo and Lilianne set for today.
It was already 12:30 in the afternoon and they were just on their way toward the restaurant. Truth to be told, they're on their way just means that they were still in the house, preparing to teleport.
Hugo tilted his head to the side.
"Let's leave once Lilianne messaged me that she was already there," Hugo informed him as he placed the cat down on the couch.
'Lilianne? Who is she?" Curiosity was written in Hendrix's voice as he mentioned the name of the woman.
"The person that we will up," Hugo answered. His forehead furrowed as he looked at Hendrix.
Hendrix just nodded using his cat's head. His tiny legs walked towards the side, jumping down onto the couch. 'I will be heading upstairs. Just shout my name and I will be coming down.'
He communicated through his mind before disappearing right in front of Hugo.
'He seems weird today,' Hugo pointed out as he took a quick glance over to the stairs.
After calling Hendrix to go down earlier so that both of them could eat lunch already, he noticed that something had changed in his actions.
He seems to be more composed than he naturally was. Hendrix has been quiet since then and would only talk if you talk to him first. And the biggest thing that Hugo noticed was that he would space out every then.
"Did he see a ghost or something?" his brows shot up.
However, he just disregarded all his thoughts when he saw that it was already 20 minutes away from 1 o'clock.
Hugo stood up and went to look at his reflection in front of the mirror. He noticed that after Hendrix turned him back to his original figure, his skin became smoother and his feature slightly changed.
It was as if his face earlier and his previous look emerged together, resulting in this. But well, one could say that it was probably because he was starting to look mature now.
Overall, he really liked the change himself.
Ding!
Suddenly hearing a notification sound, Hugo looked at his phone and saw that there was a message coming from Lilianne.
[I am 5 minutes away. I just went to a pet shop since you said that you will be bringing your cat!]
Hugo could already feel the excitement of Lilianne just by reading her chat. He chuckled. Imagine if Lilianne bought something that was designated for girls.
'That wasn't a bad idea!' Hugo thought as the sides of his lips unconsciously stretched to the side. 'After all the things that Hendrix did that caused me to have a headache, I can finally have my revenge on him.'
"Hendrix? Let's go!" Hugo shouted out loud.
It didn't take a few minutes before Hendrix suddenly appeared right on top of the couch. It was noticeable that the cat was irritated based on the look on his face.
Hendrix hissed at Hugo. "You should have just used our mind linkage to talk to me! Your shout startled me." He angrily uttered on Hugo's head.
'Well, you said to shout your name so I just did what you told me to do,' Hugo shrugged his shoulder. 'And what were you doing that you would get startled at a simple shout?' He looked at Hendrix with doubt written in his eyes.
'Taking care of those people,' Hendrix answered simply. 'And wasn't it you who told me to take care of them? I was startled because I thought one of them woke up.'
Hugo couldn't help but chuckle as Hendrix said those words. If he was actually na?ve then he would believe that, but he knew better.
Hendrix, who was capable of killing everyone, is scared that someone might wake up.
That will be impossible.
"Anyway, we have to go now." Hugo took a deep sigh as he carried Hendrix in his hands.
Because Hendrix's cat form is so small, he could fit in Hugo's palms perfectly. Fortunately, the restaurant that they agreed upon was animal friendly.
He could take Hendrix this perfectly fine.
Hugo went to the side. He grinned as he took out something.
"Look at what I bought," he pointed out a bag that was transparent from the outside. 'Just be patient inside there. I promise you that I will take you out inside the restaurant.'
Hendrix didn't say anything and just went inside. 'This space is not that bad,' he thought as he lay down, with his head looking at the side of the transparent bag.
There was a small cushion on the inside that looks like Hugo placed it there so that it wouldn't get uncomfortable for him. 'Well, at least, he thought of this.'
When Hugo saw that Hendrix was fine inside the bag, he proceeded to close it up. He wore it on his back and teleported right across the restaurant's street.
It was a busy street, so no one would notice even if he teleported right at the end.
Hugo received another message coming from Lilianne, informing him that she already arrived at the location.
He replied by saying, 'I'm near' as well.
'I wonder when will I hear Lilianne saying those words again,' he grinned as he tilted his head to the side, cleaning his thoughts.
'I shouldn't act as if I am a horny guy. Remember, that I am grown up now." Hugo reminded himself.
He arrived at the restaurant after a few minutes. The waitress greeted Hugo with great enthusiasm.
"Table for Ms. Reyes, please," Hugo smiled as he mentioned Lilianne's surname.
"This way, Sir." The waitress smiled at Hugo as she lead the way toward the table.
"Thank you," Hugo uttered as he smiled back at the woman.
"Just call me Sir, if you are ready to take your order." The woman bowed her head as she left the two people alone.
Lilianne greeted Hugo with a big hug, "I missed you!" she couldn't help but exclaim after she finally saw Hugo after a few days.
"Me too," Hugo's grin became wider.
"Did you order already?" He asked when he saw that there was already bread and drinks on the table.
"Not yet," Lilianne shyly smiled. "I do not know what you wanted, so I waited for you to arrive."
"That was sweet of you," Hugo chuckled.
Both he and Lilianne were talking to each other, trying to catch up when someone spoke in Hugo's mind.
He just realized that he had already forgotten about Hendrix ad the bag on the ground.
'Oh shit!' Hugo quickly stopped talking as he glanced to his side.
In there he saw Hendrix, glaring at him intently. 'You told me that you will take me out of this bag once we arrive here, but that was 15 minutes ago!'
"Wait, can I just take out Rix?" Hugo scratched the back of his head as he looked at Lilianne.
It would be disrespectful if he will suddenly dock down while she was talking.
"Oh, sure." Lilianne smiled at Hugo. Seeing how Hugo stood up to kneel on the ground so he could open the bag.
She glanced at the paper bag on the side and brought it out. There, she bought some pink clothes for the cat!
She couldn't wait for the cat to try it on.
Hugo was focused on taking out Hendrix, who was glaring at him all the time. 'I'm sorry, alright?' he looked right into Hendrix's eyes as he apologized once again.
However, Hendrix just looked away as he remained silent, not wanting to talk to Hugo.
'Is this how cat sulks?" Hugo was confused about how Hendrix was acting.
"Lilianne, this is my cat, Rix." Hugo smiled at Lilianne as he introduced the both of them to each other.
"She is so cute!" Lilianne, who thought that Rix was a girl, exclaimed very loudly. She stood up and took the cat away from Hugo's hands. In there, she patted the cat's head with her soft hands.
'Look at this cat enjoying that pats while ignoring me,' Hugo crossed his arms in front of his chest as he stare at the two of them.
"You know what? I'm sure the clothes that I bought will look good on you." Lilianne sweetly smiled. She opened the paper bag with her free hand. It was difficult, but since she was happy, she didn't care about it.
Rix fur was so soft and smooth that touching them felt as if he was touching a cloud of cotton.
Hugo couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw the color of the cat's clothes that Lilianne had bought.
It was a pink dress like clothes for Hendrix.
When Lilianne saw how Hugo laughed she was confused. "Why are you laughing Hugo?" she asked. But at the same time, a man's voice suddenly sounded in Hugo's mind. It was a cry of plea coming from Hendrix.
"Save me, Hugo!"
