Little Kitty

Seeing the little girl cheerfully run toward him, Adam was at a loss for words.

Who is this child? And what is she doing in Professor's office? He thought to himself.

"Kitty! Kitty!" The little girl started running around Adam, jumping in joy and reaching out her hands toward Valerian, who was sitting on the young man's shoulder.

Valerian glared at the child and hissed, "I am not a kitty!"

The little girl covered her mouth in astonishment. "The kitty can speak…"

A moment later, she beamed with happiness. "Kitty, come play with me!"

She then tugged on Adam's cloak and asked with an innocent look on her face, "Mister, can I please play with your kitty?"

"Myu! I am not a kitty!" Valerian glared at her.

Meanwhile, Adam was rooted on the spot witnessing the interaction between his familiar and this little girl.

He couldn't help but look toward Professor Whitaker and ask," Uh, Professor… Who is this child?"
