324 SS1 01: Breaking and Entering (Except with Keys)

Kiri and Blueberry slept on the penthouse couch. Her white fur and his black one created an image similar to the Yin and Yang symbol. Their food bowls had been licked clean. Their water was almost out. Fluffy white clouds rolled by outside the window where a light rain of snow fell down from the heavens.

Keys jingled from the other side of the front door.

"Kiri?" Eve said, shrugging off her coat and hanging it on the coat rack. She tucked her bob cut hair behind her ear before walking further into the room. "Kiri? Blueberry?"

At the sound of her name, Kiri pulled her head up. "Meow?"

Her purple eyes scanned the living room and failed to spot Eve. She leaped off the couch, hitting Blueberry in the face. The latter feline hissed under his breath. Then, he softened when he noticed it was Kiri at fault. Sitting up on the backrest, he shook his head and glanced in the direction of the front door.
