A visitor

The gate of the building creaked open and a tall figure in black clothing walked in hurriedly.

The cat leaped down from the chair, running to hide behind Ravi's back. Ravi looked at it, placed a finger on his chin, and lowered his head, "Are you afraid?"

The cat let out a cry and maintained his position behind Ravi's back. Ravi had a feeling that if the cat was in human form, it would cling to his leg and not let go.

Harlan was extremely quiet at night so the sounds of the boot waking up the door were very loud.

"Don't be afraid." Ravi consoled the cat before he headed towards the door. He had not had a visitor before. Could it be that the veterinary doctor is coming to check on the cat like he promised? In Harlan, at night, she must be a sociopath or deranged at least.

Knock! Knock!

The sounds of fists gently hitting the door resounded in the house and Ravi walked to the door. The knocks increased in frequency becoming more urgent.
