When Gavin finally finished his daily report, he departed the stateroom, leaving Ves alone with Lucky and his bodyguard.
His cat was currently dozing off on his desk. The mechanical cat had been growing lazy lately.
Ves grew a little irritated. He tapped his cat on his head.
"Meow?"
"Aren't you forgetting something, buddy?"
"Meow meow." Lucky innocently blinked.
"When was the last time you paid your rent?"
"Meow?"
"Don't act stupid in front of me." Ves grumbled at his cat. "Your diet is a lot better than before. Do you know why? It's because of all of the mechs I've designed! Do you think that all of the time and effort I've invested in my work is all for the sake of keeping you fat and happy?"
"Meow meow meow!"
