Kitty was really sweet. Much sweeter than she had expected. But then again, she didn’t have precise expectations for her personality, as much as for her attitude towards any member of the family.

Instead, she met a human that communicated like a decent human. And she managed that even though her surname was Meijer! Figure that. The interest took her by surprise, so much so she wasn’t even sure what to reply. “Music.” Was all she managed to say, but she said it with a beautiful smile, the sorts she made very rarely.

Kitty asked about the song and Ruth turned “Mh? Oh, just something I wrote a few years back. Nothing fancy really, just… a light melody one can sing.” Somehow, she was getting self conscious. Was it possible that Kitty had just joined the three people in the world whose opinion she valued? She brushed the thought aside. She didn’t need that to happen or to even have the notion of it in her head for that matter.

Ruth nodded and was taken aback by that comment. Her faced said too much, so she added “Oh. Never heard that one before.” she laughed, looking a little less sarcastic than her usual self. She was being honest, she just didn’t know how to look it.
